California design + permitting

The right scope for the real project.

Instead of forcing every property into a fixed package, Forma builds a service proposal around the project type, site, jurisdiction, deliverables, and coordination needs.

01

Feasibility review

A focused first step for owners who need to understand options, constraints, and the likely path before full design.

02

Design documentation

Concept development and agreed drawing deliverables for projects that need a clear design direction.

03

Design + permit coordination

A fuller path including permit-plan development, consultant coordination, and agency-response support.

Why pricing is project-specific

Lot conditions, existing documentation, jurisdiction rules, project size, structural scope, consultant needs, and number of review cycles can materially change the work. We review the basic facts before presenting a written scope and fee.

Every proposal should tell you

  • What Forma will produce
  • How many design or revision rounds are included
  • Which outside consultants are expected
  • Which agency and third-party fees are separate
  • What information the owner must provide
  • How additional services are approved
