What is it like to work with us? Part III: Design Development

What is “design development?”

Design development is when all of the parts and pieces that make a project are selected and integrated into a cohesive design proposal.

What do we do?

From outside to in, from top to bottom, & from the things you’ll touch every day to the systems we design to disappear — in design development, we incorporate all of the building components into the project design.

What does it look like?

In selecting finishes like flooring, tile, stone, or wallcovering, we think in terms of how they will work together to augment the spatial experiences that make up your project.
Often the best way to make decisions is to explore contrasting strategies & palettes… which is your favorite?!
Interior Finish Study
The integration of building structure and systems that distribute air, power and water, begins in this phase. We get valuable feedback from specialists to ensure that we’ll be celebrating — not fighting to hide — the building engineering once construction begins.
Our digital model of your project can produce both analytical and experiential 3D views which, in addition to traditional drawings, help us develop the design language.

At the conclusion of design development, we have gathered all of the components that constitute the project and have integrated the technical requirements into the project drawings. Have questions about what design development would look like for your project? Get in touch!
