Our Story
Founded in 2011 because of a pet peeve by Sylvia Vega Smith. While house hunting a few years ago, she found it was difficult to truly evaluate a property online simply with the photographs provided. How much time and effort would have been saved if both had been provided!
So, Home Drawn San Diego was born with Sylvia as its owner and operator. She is a San Diego native, educated locally at San Diego Mesa College, studying Architectural Drafting. Sylvia worked in the Architecture and Engineering industry for over 15 years throughout Southern and Central California, and eventually in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Then followed successful career movements into the IT and Telecommunications world with software development testing, technical writing and team management.
Then back to two of her first loves – San Diego and Architecture! Together, she’s ready to bring your listings to life and make you more successful her beautiful floor plans!
Technical stuff
We use an array of tools to accurately capture measurements of your properties. A Bosch hand-held laser measuring tool is used for indoor measurements and most outdoor. For some site plans it may be necessary to use a wheeled measuring tool, or combination of both.
Your drawings will be produced manually - the old-school way - then enhanced with software tools and delivered to you in JPG and PDF format. Other formats can be provided to suit all of your media requirements.
Please Note: The floor plans created by Home Drawn San Diego are prepared exclusively for marketing/presentation purposes; and for your buyers, potentially as reference for future renovation/decorating discussions. They should NOT be considered a substitute for the services of a licensed design or construction professional.
