Yes, we complete drawings for select projects. See the questions that start with "DESIGN".

Our goal is not to create the illusion that every design or construction variable can be perfectly controlled. Our goal is to reduce the costly blind spots that cause people to pay twice: unclear scope, weak assumptions, missed constraints, poor sequencing, mismatched selections, and decisions made before the right questions have been asked. We are rigorous about consequential blind spots. We are human about clerical ones. Our deliverables are decision-support tools, not a promise that every typo, formatting issue, future condition, or third-party variable has been eliminated. If something needs clarification or correction, we welcome the opportunity to review it and address it within a reasonable standard of care.

We have spent decades expertly reviewing design documents and protecting millions of dollars in value for happy clients. The result: proven evaluation principles have not only stood the test of time, but make any project to which they are applied a lasting success in terms of livability, profitability, and longevity: 1 // Compliance 2 // Systems 3 // Costs 4 // Buildability 5 // Coherence Each metric is further broken down into points of application that we use to break down the ways that each project is succeeding and can be improved. The way making a small investment in your review catapults your project success forward simply must be experienced. The steps: 1 // Purchase your review, complete the after-purchase intake form, and upload your documents. 2 // Robyn Thomas, our founder and licensed architect gets to work on your review, turning it around to you within 2 business days. 3 // You receive your marked up document(s), including example concepts where applicable, and assessment report. Move forward with the next step in your process with the benefit of an expert second opinion that empowers you to act with confidence!

We keep it super simple for you. You just need: The drawings or documents you want reviewed. The answers to our post-purchase intake form. They are simple questions you will know how to respond to. If not, just text us: 678-264-6900. That's it! Be aware that the quality and completeness of your documents and answers affect the results of your review. The more clear and complete, the better.

Any and every one can use this excellent design shortcut resource - especially you. Homeowners and builders who want to keep the design and purchasing process on track.  Realtors who want to set themselves apart by gifting the package to a client who needs to get immediate feedback on their project for a successful listing or purchase. You - a discerning, busy, and cost-conscious person who wants expert design upfront without investing thousands of dollars on the wrong designer or the wrong approach. Often, design projects are some of the most expensive and complicated undertakings a person will make - other than having children or getting married. RS was founded with the mission to offer clients the tools needed to actually get the outcomes they are hoping for while minimizing the stresses that typically plague the design and construction process. What you need to do can be summed up in two words: MAKE SURE. Booking a review at all of your points of decision helps you avoid costly mistakes and not miss never-to-return opportunities to make the most of your investment with an expertly improved design. Other professional industries, like medicine, promote getting a second opinion. Why should design be any different? With your Independent Robyn Studios Architectural Review: Know what matters most.

We keep pricing simple. Every review is $375, less than the average cost of a night at a 5-star hotel or even a home inspection. What you get per review: Redlined drawings Comprehensive issues document Solution resources & examples Code/constructability/coordination flags We calibrate the depth of the review according to the complexity and clarity of the documents you submit. The more straightforward and concise the documents, the deeper we go. Some people choose to get more than one review for complex projects or documents. Two or more reviews receive a credit so that you save more and more as you purchase additional reviews. The steps: 1 // Purchase your review, complete the after-purchase intake form, and upload your documents. 2 // Robyn Thomas, our founder and licensed architect gets to work on your review, turning it around to you within 2 business days. 3 // You receive your marked up document(s) and assessment report.

RS was founded with the mission to offer clients an exciting, easy-to-follow design experience guided by a trained professional and using a proven design system to make ANY space outstanding - our Design Currency Protocol™. Our clients have said that they are super happy they chose to work with us because we actively communicate even after they pay invoices, help them see where their dollars are going, and elevate and inspire their design vision in a way that gives them joy for years on end. Also, we are quite different from most any design services company you will come across in that we: Offer architecture, outdoor, and interior design all in one company. Are the only professional design company that offers the Design Currency Protocol™ proven success system, based on design intelligence. You benefit from our creative expertise that spans not only design but also cost and resale. While fully custom design is our signature offer, we also leverage stock plans as a wonderful way to streamline the design process. Robyn Studios was founded in April of 2020 by licensed architect Robyn Thomas as the formalization of her over twenty-two-year span of design experience. In the years since, the studios have become a highly sought-after regional design fulfillment and resource center for families, business owners, HOA boards, builders, and a growing list of industry professionals. Robyn is NCARB certified. This prized industry certification provides and expedites reciprocity, an agreement across all 55 US jurisdictions. While based in metro Atlanta, we operate in Alabama, Georgia, and Florida and are available for select projects nationwide. Our team continues to grow to meet the increasing needs of discerning clients. Our website is more than just a brochure about us. It is filled to the brim with design resources that you can successfully implement without paying a dime in design fees until you are ready. Why would we offer this benefit? Because we want you to see for yourself why we are the design ally you've been looking for, putting the best resources and expertise right at your fingertips. The fact that you are here means you want an easy yet elevated design experience with a relatable, fun-loving, knows-what-they-are-doing designer that is committed to understanding what you want and getting you there. We know what it's like to want a living space that is beautifully arranged and rewarding to be in. We also know what it's like to buy and buy and buy and still not have that result. Clients have also shared with us the frustration of hiring a designer only to end up with a design that just simply doesn't work. Before talking to us or another prospective design partner, consider the following: // Do I want to DIY any part of this project? // What is my investment range? // When do I want to start? // Do I need to have this work done in phases? // What level of involvement do I need - just initial concepts or full installation? // Do I understand the benefits of having a contractor or other professional involved from the beginning? Document your requirements with photos and details such as timeline, budget, and priorities. Pricing systems vary, so gather information on what each provider includes in their pricing metric, such as cost-per-square-foot, cost per phase, or hourly rate.

A project budget consists of more than the construction costs. This list covers some additional items that should be accounted for: Demolition and proper disposal of items Contractor’s profit - typically 20% or so Site development costs Design, engineering, architecture and other consultants’ fees - at least 8% Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment (FF&E) Administrative costs Moving and storage costs Shipping, freight and installation costs Sales tax Construction contingency - at least 5% If you also want interior furnishings, a good set of numbers is: 1. Furnishings themselves: 10 to 20% of the home’s overall value. For example, expect to pay between $50,000 and $100,000 to furnish a home worth $500,000 if you will shop and design it yourself or with the add of a retail store's complimentary design services. For professional design and the lasting polished results it gets you, increase your anticipated investment by $10,000 to $20,000. Our suite of reviews and curated RS Worthy Selections can reduce this investment substantially while getting you well on your way to having the hotel luxe effect for yourself. 2. The “other costs” category, which include freight charges, cleaning costs, installation and sales tax: A typical formula is 15 – 20% of the overall budget for accessories, 8.5% for sales tax and 12 – 15% for freight and delivery. For a $500,000 home, expect to add at least 36% of the range from line 1 above for and pay an additional $11,340 to $18,000, for a sample total range of $42,840 to $68,000.
