Our Services

GOAT Homes services are color coded and grouped below by the type and depth of support offered—so you can quickly find what fits your project and where you are in the process.

• Mustard Yellow - services are GOAT Homes plan add-ons, designed to customize or enhance an existing GOAT Homes floor plan.

• Copper Red - services are reviews and consultations, for universal design, accessibility, and aging-in-place considerations. Ideal if you already have plans and want expert guidance, refinement, or validation before moving forward.

• Black services are full design or specialty services, including custom home design, commercial projects, and academic tutoring, which involve deeper collaboration and longer timelines.

Each service is clearly described below, and you’re always welcome to reach out if you’re unsure which option is the best fit.

If you purchase a GOAT Homes house plan, optional add-on services allow you to tailor it to your site, lifestyle, and long-term needs. These include plan revisions, accessibility optimization, finish selection guidance, and updated renderings—so the home you build truly reflects how you live.

Experienced eyes on your plans—before it’s expensive to change them.

The core of GOAT Homes is residential design support—floor plan reviews, consultations, and functional living evaluations that prioritize livability, accessibility, and long-term adaptability, whether you purchased a plan from us or not. Universal design and aging-in-place considerations are thoughtfully integrated into every residential review, whether you’re building new, renovating, or planning for the future.

Maybe something feels off but you can’t quite name it. Maybe you’re wondering how the house will actually function day to day. Or maybe everything looks good on paper, but you’re about to make a major financial commitment and you want a second set of experienced eyes before moving forward - that’s exactly what Floor Plan Reviews are for.

I review newly designed residential floor plans with a practical, lived-in lens: how people move through the home, how spaces relate to each other, and how the design will support real life—not just today, but years down the road. Universal design, accessibility, and aging-in-place considerations are thoughtfully layered in where they make sense, without making the home feel clinical or overdesigned.

GOAT Homes also offers:

• Commercial Design Refresh for small offices, retail spaces, studios, and mom-and-pop businesses needing guidance on durable, commercial-appropriate finishes and furnishings

• Student Tutoring & Academic Support for interior design and interior architecture students seeking help with software, studio projects, and technical coursework

These services are visually separated to clarify scope, but are grounded in the same thoughtful, experience-based approach.

All sessions are virtual.

Each service is designed to be thoughtful, focused, and genuinely helpful. Depending on the session you book, you’ll be asked to share plans, images, or a brief description of your questions ahead of time. This allows me to review everything in advance, mark up drawings when appropriate, and come prepared—so our time together is efficient, meaningful, and worth your investment.

Before we meet, I take time to:

• Review the plan as a whole and room by room

• Identify opportunities to improve flow, proportion, and everyday function

• Consider long-term usability and aging-in-place details that are often overlooked

• Thoughtfully address the questions and concerns you’ve shared

During our virtual session, we’ll walk through everything together in a clear, approachable way. I’ll explain what I’m seeing, why it matters, and what options you have—without jargon, pressure, or overcomplication. When helpful, I’ll sketch directly over the plan so you can see potential improvements, not just hear about them.

You’ll leave the session with clarity, confidence, and a stronger understanding of your design—whether you decide to move forward as-is or make thoughtful adjustments.
