Aquarius Home Design is a Single Family Residential Design company providing architectural drawings of new and remodeled houses.
We create and assemble construction documents for permit submittal including: site plans, architectural floor and roof plans, elevations, and sections, structural plans, and electrical, mechanical, and plumbing layouts. These are the documents that define your home's space.
Aquarius Home Design does not design electrical, mechanical or plumbing systems. While Aquarius indicates the layouts of those things on its plans such as heater/AC grilles, light switches, showers and faucets, the specifics of the systems, such as duct sizes, electrical panel sizes, specific HVAC equipment, pipe sizes, and solar panels will be designed by consultants hired by your General Contractor.
Luke comes to your property and looks at it with you. He brings a collection of images showing options for how your house can be configured. He discusses any challenges about your site that are apparent at the time of the visit. He writes down how you want your house to be configured, returns to his office, and then provides preliminary plans to you for your review. Once you and he agree on the shape and location of the house, he contacts the Planning Department for your jurisdiction to establish that they will allow your project to proceed as you imagine it. After Planning agrees to a design, Luke prepares the design drawings. Upon finishing them, he provides them to you so your Contractor can hire subcontractors and apply for a permit.
Luke Ensberg is a registered professional engineer operating as a Designer. He is not an architect, and the California Residential Code does not require people preparing architectural drawings of houses or ADU's to be architects. Such non-architect folks are acting as Designers when they prepare architectural drawings of houses and ADU's.
