What types of projects does Mignon commit to?

We take on all home renovation projects, after speaking with the clients to make sure they have a realistic budget, timeline and expectations. The ideal project for our firm is one that we can undertake a cohesive design-build process by designing the home and completing the construction. The client will be much happier, spend less money, and have one point of contact to hold accountable throughout the home renovation process. We can also complete the interior design plan, and the furnishing in order to create a luxurious environment for our clients.

How does the consultation work?

The consultation is a comprehensive pricing and process overview that typically requires an initial phone call, followed by a 1-hour site visit at your home. During this meeting you will be reviewing the design and construction process. After our site visit you will receive a proposal breaking down your project timeline, construction costs and design costs.

What is the management style of Mignon?

Mignon is run collaboratively by Asad and Susana. Every project our firm commits to is a reflection of their design, planning, and execution efforts. To that end, every project these two commit to is a passion project that they design detail by detail alongside their clients. Most decisions happen through the design and interior design process, while others happen through the construction process. When we commit to a project we recognize that it is meant to be an evolving body of work that will improve with time and additional thought about specific features.

What is the smallest project Mignon will commit to?

Every project is different from an infrastructural, structural, and design perspective with ranging levels of complexity and detail. With that said, our services are best used for projects ranging from the $50,000 range in construction costs and up.

How Long Does the Design Process Take?

The design process for every project is different depending on whether the lot is an irregular shape, natural features of the lot including trees and topography, and the zoning by-law implications of the proposal we are making for the property. A good range to follow is that the average design project takes between 4-8 months depending on the above factors. Interior design will be undertaken as well as other planning activities concurrently during the later phases of the initial design submission process.

How Long Does the Construction Process Take?

The construction process for an average 3000-3,500 square foot custom home will typically take between 8-11 months to complete. A range of factors can influence and more definitive timeline estimates are provided upon the completion of your design, and interior design bodies of work.
