## Architecture decisions before construction hardens

Architectural interiors

Maris joins renovation teams before the expensive parts lock: room sequence, finish language, lighting hierarchy, millwork intent, and the quiet details that keep a house coherent.

Decision map

What gets resolved early

Plan logic

Room sequence

Where the home should open, pause, store, and gather.

Finish direction

Stone, timber, metal

A repeatable material language before samples multiply.

Builder notes

Approval-ready

Selections and constraints organized for fewer late revisions.

## The renovation path

Process

The work is deliberately narrow at first. Fewer open questions mean stronger drawings, better bids, and calmer site decisions.

01

Read the house

Existing light, circulation, storage, and threshold issues are documented before solutions are proposed.

02

Set the material grammar

The studio defines the stone, timber, metal, plaster, and textile rules that should repeat.

03

Coordinate the decisions

Selections are sequenced around drawing deadlines, builder questions, and procurement lead times.

04

Protect the edit

Late-stage alternatives are filtered against the original room logic instead of trend pressure.

## Architectural decision set

What is managed

Each decision object is small enough to approve and durable enough to guide the next trade conversation.

Plan and thresholds

Room adjacencies, sightlines, passage widths, and where built-ins should solve friction.

Finish register

Primary and secondary finishes assigned by room role, maintenance, and visual weight.

Lighting hierarchy

Ambient, task, decorative, and architectural light coordinated before fixture selection.

A running list of decisions builders need in clear language, not scattered references.

## Where Maris helps architects and builders

Coordination

The studio does not replace the architect or builder. It gives the interior decisions enough structure that drawings, bids, and procurement can move with less backtracking.

Drawing review

Before permit set

Interior use cases checked against the plan while changes are still cheap.

Finish meetings

Before allowances drift

Surface and fixture decisions grouped by real dependencies.

Site questions

During construction

Responses filtered through the approved palette and room priorities.
