What We Do

Our Process

01

Consultation

A site visit and a conversation about your goals, the land, and how we will work together.

02

Schematic Design

Initial concepts — floor plans, elevations, and early direction on materials — enough for a builder to start pricing.

03

Detail Design

The drawings and specs a builder needs to price, contract, and build confidently.

04

Permit Documents

A full drawing set for local approvals, with a licensed architect or engineer brought in when the project needs a stamp.

05

Construction Admin

Active on-site engagement through the build, from groundbreaking to completion.

What Our Clients Say

"Lowell and Jesse understood our vision from the very first meeting. They designed a home that feels like it grew out of the hillside — exactly what we wanted."

— Homeowner, Rosendale

"The level of detail in their construction documents saved us time and money during the build. Their hands-on experience as carpenters really shows in the quality of their work."

— Homeowner, New Paltz

"Working with Plum Design Group was a pleasure from start to finish. They managed the entire renovation process and kept us informed at every step."

— Homeowner, Kingston

About Our Studio

Plum Design Group is a design-oriented drafting and construction management studio. We work on renovations, additions, and new ground-up constructions throughout the Hudson Valley. We're not licensed architects — when a project needs a stamped set, we bring in a licensed architect or engineer to handle that piece.

We have lifelong roots in the Hudson Valley and deeply appreciate its beauty. Our vision centers on integrating built spaces into the landscape, emphasizing natural features of the land and regional vernacular.
