Community-Based Solutions
How a building and its site impacts the surrounding community is a core consideration with each of our projects. These considerations lead us to ask very early on in the design and planning phases, what solutions can we infuse into a room, a building or a property, that will actively improve the local and adjacent communties. How can we go beyond just good aesthetics? Many times, our solutions tap into a uniquely cultural aspect of our client and their project, which establishes a baseline for all future solutions during the design phase.
Branding-Centric Design
Since our firm’s inception, we’ve been designing commercial buildings and interior office finish-outs, for developers, corporations, institutions, and non-profit organizations. What we’ve learned in that time is that brand identity can be a very powerful and informative design reference during the planning process. For us, branding-centric design goes beyond just inserting company colors into rooms as accent walls, its about tapping into the company’s culture and history and providing solutions that uniquely rooted in our client’s mission and goals for the future.
Adaptability-Built In
Adaptability is a key design component, now more than ever, and remains a core component in our design philosophy. How can rooms serve more than one purpose? Do we have the ability to expand or reconfigure spaces in the future as needs change? These are the types of questions we are always thinking about in the planning phase of a project, because we know adaptability equates to value and it’s very difficult to build adaptability in after the fact.
Holistic-Focused Approach
Our holistic approach to design focuses on a natural fusion of sustainability, longevity and ease in a harmonious way that is unique to each our clients. When we look beyond the initial aesthetics of a building and focus more on the constructability of it, the source of materials used within it, and long term maintenance requirements, we begin to look at a building’s design as more than just a pretty image, but as a well informed, carefully considered solution to a very complex problem.
