We lead the design. You lead the build.

 PLĀNA x YOUR COMPANY
DESIGN PARTNERSHIP

Elevated custom-home design, built through your team.

Plāna partners with builders, design-build firms, and local architects as the Design Architect for custom residences throughout Southern California. We bring principal-led architectural design to the front end of the project, while your team retains the client relationship and leads documentation, engineering, permitting, and construction.

A CLEAR, FIXED-FEE DESIGN PACKAGE

Plāna offers defined Concept Design packages organized by project scale, with flat-fee options for custom residences up to 5,000 square feet and tiered packages for homes up to 8,000 and 12,000 square feet. Larger or unusually complex residences are scoped individually.

Each package includes:

  • Floor plans and spatial organization w/ revisions

  • Exterior architectural direction and massing

  • Design refinement based on the site, program, and client priorities

  • Three high-quality exterior renderings

  • A final concept package delivered as PDF

HOW THE PARTNERSHIP WORKS

DESIGN
Plāna develops the architectural concept, layouts, exterior expression, and visual narrative.

ALIGN
We coordinate with your team so the concept responds to budget, constructability, local requirements, and the intended delivery strategy.

DELIVER
You receive a clear PDF design package. Your builder, design-build team, or Architect of Record then develops the construction documents, coordinates engineering, obtains permits, and delivers the project.

WHY PARTNER WITH PLĀNA

• Give clients access to elevated architectural design without expanding your permanent staff
• Strengthen early client presentations with thoughtful plans and compelling visualization
• Establish design direction before committing resources to full documentation
• Offer a seamless path from concept through construction
• Engage Plāna for concept design only, or explore expanded services when a project calls for them

DESIGNED TO FIT YOUR DELIVERY MODEL

Plāna can work visibly as the Design Architect alongside your firm or operate as a design resource supporting your established client experience. Each partnership is structured around clear roles, coordinated communication, and a shared commitment to the quality of the completed home.

Concept deliverables are provided as PDFs. Editable Revit and CAD files are not included. The Architect of Record and project team remain responsible for code compliance, construction documentation, engineering, permitting, and construction administration unless additional services are separately agreed.
