HOW WE DO IT
We
achieve high performance built environments through a process of close
collaboration with our Clients and Contractors, and through our use of
Building information Modeling. Our process gives us the ability to
take the efficiency of streamlined collaboration and design technology,
and apply it to the achievement of a better, more sustainable built
environment.
Collaboration:
We encourage the open exchange of ideas and information. We strive to
understand the issues and concerns of all stakeholders. Through
collaboration, we help you set realistic goals for your project's size,
cost, timing, function and aesthetic. Integrated Project Delivery:
The client's goals have been established. The project team of
Architect, Contractor and Owner has been assembled. When these goals
and team players are established early in the project, we can continue
the team collaboration from the start of the project to final
construction. This collaboration is called Integrated Project Delivery
(IPD). We have utilized IPD effectively on projects small and large,
from retrofits to new construction, and for residential and commercial
clients. By working as a team of Contractor, Architect and Owner, the
client's wants and needs are effectively weighed against the realities
(time and money), as the project progresses. This allows for the best
decisions to be made at the right times. This ensures that your
project will receive the right mix of quality and value. Building Information Modeling:
Using Building Information Modeling (BIM), we build your project as a
virtual digital model from your project's start. This enables us to
explore your building ideas three-dimensionally from the very
beginning. Viewing your building idea on the computer screen, you can
"walk through" your project, experiencing it in space realistically.
This makes getting to the right building solution faster and easier.
It saves you time and money, and ensures that you get the built
solution that you want.
We have used BIM to create design
solutions for small and large projects, for retrofits and additions, at
no extra time or cost to our clients. This leads to the construction
of an excellent built environment that works for you.
