Service Capabilities:

We approach the design of your site by understanding your goals for the site.  During this process, we will work closely with you to develop the site into a comprehensive project that meets all the goals set for the site.

 

The design process continues until we meet or exceed the expectations set for the site plan.  During the site plan design process, we will meet with the municipality officials to assure the building will work within the requirements of the Zoning and/or Planning department of the municipality.

 

Once the site plan has met or exceeded your expectations, we will jointly work on the layout and elevations for the building or complex of buildings. This process is also an evolution of designs.  Our design will be compatible with the budget, design intent and aesthetics wanted for the building or complex of buildings.

 

Upon your approval and the municipality's approval of the site plan and building, we will begin the construction documentation. The construction documentation typically includes architecture, civil engineering, landscape architecture, irrigation design, structural engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and plumbing engineering.  If your needs require other specialties such as fire sprinkler engineering, fire alarm design, traffic studies, noise studies, surveying, arborist reports, smoke evacuation engineering, public art, etc., we can provide those services also for an additional fee.

 

When the construction documentation is complete, we will provide the documents needed for permitting. The general contractor is responsible for submitting the permit drawings to the City and tracking the permit while in review.  If comments need to be addressed, we address the comments until a permit is issued.

 

During the construction phase, we will work with the general contractor on an as needed basis until the project is completed.  If the general contractor needs additional information to complete the design as intended by this firm, we will provide any necessary details to complete the work.
