As we begin working on plans for your project, we will begin by talking to you, your staff, and your board members as we come up with new ideas, budgets, and schedules. This testing process is what we call the Collaborative Design Process (CDP), and it is our way of making sure we are providing you with everything you need on a schedule and budget that works. We’ll schedule a series of work sessions and check-ins to establish the character of the building, site plan, building plan, major systems, and project estimate with you. This shared experience will help us answer some very key questions, including:
How do you want your space to feel?
What is your ideal flow of people and traffic inside and outside the building?
How can we make systems and materials to streamline maintenance?
With the answers to these questions and many more, we will be able to start working on a design that you love.
