Schematic Design (SD) Sets

Schematic Design (SD)

Clear, Concept-Driven Drawings to Kickstart Your Project

Camellia Buildtech delivers high-quality Schematic Design (SD) Sets that translate early-stage concepts into clear, structured, and visually understandable drawings. We help architects, developers, and design firms move from idea to direction with speed and clarity.

Our SD sets focus on design intent, spatial planning, and feasibility, enabling stakeholders to visualize the project before detailed development begins. As a global offshore BIM and CAD partner, we ensure every schematic drawing is aligned with international standards and ready for the next design phase.

From concept sketches to initial BIM models, we create accurate, scalable, and presentation-ready schematic documentation.

What is Schematic Design?

Schematic Design (SD Sets) represents the initial phase of the design process where key project elements are defined, including layout, scale, and relationships between spaces.

Visualize design concepts clearly - Transform rough ideas into tangible drawings.
Align stakeholders early - Get everyone on the same page from the start.
Identify feasibility and constraints - Spot potential issues before they become costly problems.
Reduce design changes in later stages - A strong foundation minimizes rework in Design Development and Construction Documentation phases.

Why Camellia Buildtech for Schematic Design?

US-Trained Architects, Global Standards

While many competitors offer similar services, our team’s foundation is US-trained architects and engineers who possess an intrinsic understanding of American design standards, codes, and client expectations. This is a distinct advantage over firms primarily staffed with locally trained talent. We ensure your project starts with a clear, compliant vision.

Speed and Agility Through Dedicated Teams

What distinguishes us from the rest is our capability to quickly form a dedicated team that will easily integrate into your workflow. Our model for delivering projects with the help of dedicated resources allows your projects to receive continuous and focused efforts.

Technology-Enabled Feasibility

We leverage our BIM and CAD expertise even at this early stage. Unlike traditional drafting services that produce simple 2D drawings, our SD sets can be developed as early-stage BIM models. This allows for immediate “what-if” analysis, area calculations, and spatial coordination, providing you with feasibility insights from Day 1.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in a Schematic Design Set?

The SD Set generally consists of concept floor plans, rough site plans, preliminary elevations and sections, massing studies, and area calculations, among others. The package is customized to suit the project's needs and the subsequent design phases.

How do you ensure the design intent is captured?

All of our projects start with an extensive study of your sketches, briefs, and other references. We have a team of professionals who understand how to read your design and help in designing your SD set through an iterative process.

What is the typical turnaround time for SD Sets?

Turnaround time is fast and dependent on the project's complexity. On average, it takes us 1-2 weeks to give you initial drafts and 2-3 weeks to complete your SD set, ensuring fast progress in your project from day one.

Can you create SD sets in BIM/Revit?

Absolutely. Although we can create traditional CAD drawings, we can also create your Schematic Design sets in Revit. This gives us a great base for further stages of design development.

What happens if I need major revisions?

We provide an unlimited number of revisions at your request. An iterative process helps us in doing it.
