Professional Practice

Building codes may seem complicated, but they’re absolutely necessary. They’re not there to hinder creativity or slow down the process—they’re in place to make sure projects are safe, legal, and built to last.

If there’s one thing that can make or break a construction project, it’s the quality of the Construction Documents. As someone who lives and breathes drafting, I’ve learned that a well-crafted set of construction drawings doesn’t just make the builder's life easier—it also protects the client, reduces confusion, and keeps the entire team on the same page from start to finish.

Whether it’s a home addition, renovation, or new construction, drafting is only one part of a much larger puzzle. Contractors are the ones turning those designs into reality, which means our communication and collaboration with them must be seamless.
