Services

Planning

Pre-Design
During the pre-design phase, studies are done which include site analysis, programming, construction cost analysis and value engineering.

As-Built Documentation
Based on site conditions it may be necessary to document the existing conditions. This may be for an addition or renovation that requires to document any structure that is existing and may be demolished, renovated or added to.

Design

Schematic Design
Based on the information provided we will create two to three design options for your consideration. We will generally present these options in the form of sketches, so you can visualize the different routes your project could take.

Design Development
At this point, we will take the schematic design you selected, as well as any requested modifications, and revise the design as necessary. We will also update the cost estimate we provided during the Schematic Design phase to reflect any changes we’ve made to the initial design.

Architecture

Construction Documents
By now, we will have settled on a final design and will begin preparing drawings, notes, and technical specifications necessary for bidding, construction, and permit application.

Bidding
Having an architect on your side during the bidding phase of construction is of great advantage to you. We can review submitted bids, provide analysis, and help you compare the cost figures that you receive from your bidders.
This phase will ensure the contractors you are considering for your construction project are reading the blueprints correctly and are providing an accurate bid for your project.

Construction Administration
Once you have selected a contractor and construction is under way, we move into the fifth phase of the architectural design process – construction administration. During this phase, we will administer the construction process to assure conformance with design intent, visit the site during construction, and address any field conditions as they arise.
