A text away
Send it the moment you see it.
A change shouldn’t need a form. Text us a photo, a measurement or a doubt, and we draw it into your house and send it back. The same small team throughout.

Side by side
A change takes a text.
| Item | One firm’s written proposal | Stanza |
|---|---|---|
| Seeing the design | Selections narrowed with you, then the full design presented once it’s complete | Each room as it comes together, sent to you to mark up and send back |
| Changing it after approval | Up to three revisions to the proposal, each a detailed written request by change order | A text with a photo, and we redraw it, during your project |
| What it costs | A written estimate, then the time to agree it billed hourly | Inside your design fee, during your project |
Their column is taken from a written proposal a high-end Austin design firm gave us in 2026: one firm, not every firm.

How the work runs
One room at a time, carried to done.
Twelve rooms half-decided is how a remodel stalls. We take one, finish it and settle it, then the next. Between rounds, you text us what you see and we send back drawings. Your texts go to the small team that designs your house: the same small team throughout, from the first plan to the last tile.
- You text what you need.A photo, a measurement, a tile you saw at a friend’s.
- We draw it and send it back.A drawing, a rendering, three options with prices.
- You mark it up. We redraw.As many rounds as it takes, never billed hourly.
- It locks when it’s settled.Change your mind in March and we reopen it.
