PREDESIGN

 

Before we put pencil to paper, it’s all about understanding your needs and aspirations. Sometimes we are approached with a very clear visions, while other times we have the opportunity to enjoy the journey with our clients to get to the heart of it all. Either way, the first step is always to understand your vision, your goal, and your dream.

This is where we can let our imagination run wild. Working creatively through pencil sketches we focus on the big idea, bringing your vision to life. Allow yourself to be surprised as the first plans and 3D drawings emerge.

DESIGN DEVELOPMENT

Having found a design path, we fully develop every aspect. As registered architects we are practiced in coordinating with engineers of all disciplines in our role as prime consultant. This is where an architectural vision comes to life - where loose pencil drawings turn into stone, wood and glass. Using 3D visualization software you can get a thorough understanding of your project’s design.

Compiling a thorough construction drawing set and reviewing it with your contractor is key to avoiding surprises during the construction phase. When detailing our buildings we embrace out of the box solutions, aiming for the highest quality standards while realizing our vision. Working with the latest construction software (Revit) we essentially build your building virtually before any shovels hit the ground.
