Architecture: The heart and soul of what we provide. Our comprehensive architectural and engineering services include conceptual and schematic design, design development and construction documentation, assisting with contractor bidding and/or negotiating and construction contract administration. Architecture embodies all we touch. And we are a combination of artists and tacticians, imagining, coordinating and creating iconic places.
Planning: We combine global reach with a tremendous local touch. Our commitment to our communities allows us to effectively navigate local regulatory approval processes from platting subdivisions to zoning and permitting. We also handle issues of site analysis, access, circulation, parking, urban design, local development guidelines and place making. It’s the entire picture. Always.
Project Management: The fears of most clients stem from lack of transparency, slipping time frames and rising budgets. Our services offer technical expertise that contributes to streamlined, on-time, within-budget projects. Our process includes design-quality management reviews and consultant coordination, budget management, monthly reporting, design scheduling and design-fee cash flow forecasting and trending. All results. No surprises.
Interior: Our services offer creative and intelligent responses to your goals and requirements. We know how to listen and infuse your organization’s personality into a space.
Lighting Design: Since light is much more than merely installing lighting appliances in a finished building and hence, is an essential element of architecture, our specialized department approaches light and lighting problems from the architect’s point of view, as a three‐dimensional element, an integral part of the building specifications.
