OUR DESIGN PROCESS
We aim for a seamless and cohesive design process with all our clients. We design our project with confidence. For this to happen, we anchor our methodology on communication and a holistic, hands-on approach.
Communication: Effective communication between all design professionals and the client is imperative to the success of any design and building project.
We adopt a cradle-to-grave collaborative process when we engage our clients. From sharing ideas to solidifying a concept, we want our clients to have a seamless transition through the design process.
Starting any project, we listen and comprehend what the client wants. As our client, we want to understand your lifestyle. When we do, we create a story centered around your daily experiences and vision.

CF7 Design guides clients through each design phase from start to completion. We make decisions that lead to intricate designs that impact both form and function. Every stage assures us of a positive outlook that the project will be a success.
Purposeful Design
We are conscious about our design and connect with the environment. We focus on creating awe-inspiring spaces that will not only please their occupants but is an aesthetically appealing part of the environment. Each design seeks to create a holistic environment that elevates the living experience.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
CF7 Design is a woman-led design team that demonstrates a cohesive synergy of purpose, innovation, and a forward-thinking motivation to create spaces that exude firmitas, utilitas, and venustas (i.e., solidity, usefulness, and beauty).
We specialize in Residential Design, Commercial – Multifamily, and Renovations. Our goal and focus are to provide excellent design services for our clientele regardless of the size or complexity of the project.
People, devices, moments, ethnographic environments, physical spaces, human behavior, psychology (i.e., attitudes, feelings, motivations, abilities, and triggers, to mention a few), and ethnographic environments are all considered in holistic design.
The 10 Philosophical Pillars of CF7 Design govern the organization’s holistic design ideology. They are:
HONESTY, TRUST, DEDICATION, DETAIL-ORIENTED, PASSION, POSITIVITY, CONSISTENCY, QUALITY, EQUILIBRIUM, HOLISTIC AND PROFESSIONALISM.”

Faye is at the forefront of holistic design. She believes that a building or space should have spiritual resonance. She is inspired by light, sound, energy, natural elements, a distinct sense of place, and respect for the environment. Everything has a vibrational frequency. She strives for fluidity and aims to create space that nourishes and harmonizes with its environment.
When she is not designing, she enjoys writing, traveling, meditating, and hanging out with her dog Chloe and her two cats, Leo, and Nala.
