Architecture / Planning

Feasibility studies involve analyzing existing buildings or sites to assess demographics, potential use, space utilization, needs, financial pro forma, and project costs. Assessments focus on accessibility, environmental and zoning requirements, existing conditions, and maintenance or replacement programs.

Master planning involves developing designs for project sites and facilities, addressing access, parking, building placement, utilities, and stormwater control. It includes defining project budgets, site considerations, space utilization, community needs, future goals, and schedules. Services often cover existing conditions studies, including building tours, compliance evaluations, repair estimates, and detailed reports. Additional offerings include site planning, floor plans, presentation materials, budget estimates, and public presentations.

Architectural programming involves researching, developing, and presenting facility data, sizing building areas, and identifying requirements for future phased development.

Basic architectural services cover schematic design, design development, construction documents, bidding and negotiation, field monitoring during construction, administering construction contracts, and conducting final acceptance procedures before owner occupancy. Services also include designing, coordinating, and presenting project plans to zoning and planning officials, engaging in public outreach for project and referendum support, and incorporating LEED or sustainable design principles.
