Who I Work With
Homeowners
If you are planning a renovation, addition, or new build and are unsure where to start, I can help. I work with homeowners who value thoughtful design and want a steady guide through the process, from early decisions to final plans.
Developers
I partner with developers who want design, permitting, and coordination handled reliably. My role is to keep things moving and manage the details so you do not have to.
Services
-
Whether you’re starting with an existing structure or a vacant lot, I help turn your ideas into clear, buildable plans. We work together from early sketches through detailed drawings that are ready for permits and construction.
-
I stay involved during the permitting process so you don’t have to juggle comments from officials or handle administrative back-and-forth. My aim is to keep approvals moving without you feeling stuck.
-
Before design even begins, I look closely at your property and local regulations so we can spot potential hurdles early. If a variance or special permit is needed, I can help assemble the right documentation and walk it through with your team.
-
There are a lot of choices to make, and I’m here to help you make ones that match your vision and budget. I focus on options that will look great and hold up over time.
-
Sometimes a flat drawing isn’t enough. When it helps clients and builders see what’s coming, I provide 3D visuals so everyone is on the same page before construction starts.
-
For custom elements like built-in cabinetry, metal stair details, or other unique features, I prepare detailed shop drawings and work with trusted partners so pricing, fabrication, and installation go smoothly.
My Approach
I’m Olivia, the founder of OS Design and Consulting. I run a one-person studio by choice so I can stay closely involved in every project and be accountable from start to finish.
I approach design with a practical, grounded mindset. Good design takes time and careful thought, especially when you’re building or renovating something meant to last. My role is to help guide the process, ask the right questions, and think through details that are easy to overlook but costly to fix later.
When we work together, you can expect a thoughtful, steady approach. I stay involved, communicate clearly with builders and municipalities, and focus on solutions that make sense for the site, the budget, and how the space will actually be used. I’m not interested in rushing decisions or reusing plans that don’t fit. I care about getting it right.
Clients often come to me because they want someone they can trust to handle the details, think ahead, and genuinely care about the outcome of the project.
