Our Process

Methodology

Programming & Feasibility Planning

We begin by understanding the Client’s goals, preferences, and budget. This includes discussions around functionality, aesthetic vision, and any architectural constraints. Site assessments and measurements allow us to identify opportunities and challenges within the layout.

Concept & Schematic Design

Based on initial insights and space analysis, we create design concepts and visual presentations. This stage provides room for feedback, ensuring that all stakeholders align on the creative direction before moving forward.

Design Development

Once the concept is approved, we prepare a comprehensive design proposal. This includes detailed elevations, renderings, material samples, and a preliminary budget.

Contract Documentation

With Client’s approval, we finalize materials, colours, finishes, and furnishings. A Construction Package is developed, including Working Drawings and a Finishes & Products Schedule to guide the implementation.

Tendering & Material Co-ordination

We co-ordinate the Tender Process and prepare RFP documentation. Walk-throughs are conducted with contractors, and sealed bids are submitted for Board review. We also outline a timeline and procurement plan, ensuring cost transparency and optimal trade discounts.

Construction Oversight & Post-Project Review

Our team co-ordinates with contractors to bring the design to life. We oversee installation and ensure adherence to design standards through regular site visits and progress reporting. A final walk-through is conducted with the Board to address any concerns and ensure complete satisfaction.
