I create profitable, accurate and detailed estimates for residential and commercial contractors, public adjusters and attorneys. I am also a CAD/Chief Architect 16 Lumion 2023 architectural drafter and render artist. I assist large corporations, architects, interior designers and developers in creating beautiful interior and exterior design renderings, plans and elevations to present to their clients or issue for permit. I have experience creating construction take-offs or client focused estimates for: Commercial and residential; Excavation Foundation Framing/Block/CMU/Structural Panel wall construction Rough in Electrical Finish electrical with fixture allotments Rough in Plumbing Finish plumbing with fixture allotments HVAC Structural steel or microlam install Insulation Septic Systems Finish Drywall/Panels/plaster/Venetian plaster/ paint Finish flooring tile/wood/carpet/concrete/pavers/steel and wood plank decking Cabinet creation/resell/install Moldings and finish items. I am also an expert level xactimate specialist proficient in writing xactimate estimates for damage caused by water, fire, wind, flood, tornados or hurricanes. I draft water mitigation estimates specific to loss and CAT code, mold remediation based off of assessor protocols. I also draft pack outs, asbestos abatement, structural cleaning and structural repair xactimate reports for the residential and commercial industry. I write for public adjusters, restoration contractors and attorneys. I am well versed with most managed repair programs like CCC, Alacrity, Nexxus, SM Corp, Servpro Corp, PD Corp and can also write with carrier requirements such as State Farm, Allstate, USAA, AIG, CHUBB and AM Family/homesite. I offer additional services in which I can manage your full schedule of work flow from estimates, contracts, disclosures, subcontractor and labor management to the design renderings and customer material selections and budget reports. In reference to the design renders I offer, I am a draftsman and render artist specializing in Chief Architect 16 (full CAD REVIT capacity), Sketchup, Blender 3.64, Lumion 12.5/2023 and Photoshop. I am well versed with IBC and ICC standards and local building codes (once you tell me what state and county your build is located in) I draft; Elevations Residential Floorpans Commercial Floorplans DRO/SRO shelter housing space plans Site plans (if you have the survey I can add point elevations on the site plan) Eminent domain site plan conversions HVAC plans Electrical Plans Framing plans (if using truss your manufacturer can provide me with the .dwg file of their stamped drawings) Structural Steel Plans Foundation plans Finish fixture and material plans Cabinet legends Custom CAD blocks for structural framing and concrete, I have also created custom CAD blocks for wells and septic.

For example:   - All interior residential renderings floorplans and elevations such as Kitchen and Bathroom renderings, including cabinetry schedules and plumbing fixture placement elevations   - Commercial large offices, retail spaces, warehouse factories, restaurants, stadiums, concert halls, and hotels   - Exterior commercial and residential renders I have earned all my 5 star reviews on my upwork profile that illustrate my skill set and perhaps more importantly, my work ethic and reliability.   My general strategy is to build your design in Chief Architect/sketchup/blender. This is where I can draft your general model, floorplan, elevations, legends, framing, hvac, MEP plans and, if you would like a more photorealistic render with video walkthrough options I can retexture the model in Lumion. If you want specific fixtures or furniture I can model those in blender to bring into the render as well. I pride myself in having one of the fastest turnaround times - if I have all the necessary information available:   - Floor plans and/or a matterport   - Design color schematics/moodboard   - Materials choice Please take a look at all my 5 star reviews here so you can see I am a reliable and skilled candidate.

    Hi! My name is Amaliya and I have been working in Interior Design since 2012. While I specialize in home designs & staging, I have extensive experience designing cafes, restaurants, co-working spaces and hotels. With three citizenships (New Zealand, USA and the Kyrgyz Republic), and having lived in four countries, I bring a global approach to design. I split my time between the Kyrgyz Republic, where my husband and I own and operate a chain of restaurants, and the USA where I work on projects and visit our USA family. My mission is to create stunning interiors that reflect the needs, character and lifestyle of every client, within budget and on time. Your interior/home is a reflection of who you are. I am passionate about creating personalized and functional interiors that reflect my clients' needs and lifestyles. With over 12 years of experience in both commercial and residential design, I specialize in crafting immersive environments that are both beautiful and practical. From concept to execution, I merge aesthetics with functionality to evoke emotions and elevate experiences. My strengths lie in staying current with industry trends, interior décor, and excellent communication skills. I am dedicated to continuous improvement through education and training, ensuring that each project is unique and tailored to my clients' preferences. I have extensive experience in CAD drawings, 3D renderings, kitchen and bathroom design, furniture layouts, home staging and more. My expertise in Eclectic Style shines through in my work.
