A recent post asked the neighborhood for tips when confronted with the question, "We have an old house that needs a lot of work...where do we start?" The Community Design Center of Pittsburgh (CDCP) has been a great partner with the neighborhood's development projects over the years, but there is another CDCP program that has helped hundreds of Pittsburgh homeowners with their own renovation challenges, The RenPlan Program. For a reasonable fee, the CDCP will match up a volunteer design professional (architect, landscape architect, interior designer) for an initial consultation and problem-solving session. Some homeowners use the process to help them make early decisions and organize work that they take forward on their own, while others have hired the design professional for additional services once they've established a working relationship.
