BETTER TOOLS FOR BETTER DESIGN

By staying at the forefront of building design technology we better serve our clients.

Our multidisciplinary team leverages the latest technology tools which support best service for our clients. Our exploration led us to be an early adopter of BIM – Building Information Modeling software – that serves as an optimal tool for providing highly coordinated designs. We are exploring cloud management systems that allow for better coordination of our Revit models. We use Newforma Project Center to streamline our project management and provide better communication pathways. We use Bluebeam Studio to communicate drawings and mark-ups to our clients, contractors, and consultants. We are using 3D printing to help the client better understand our designs. We are using Virtual Reality in a similar fashion so that our clients can get “inside” our designs.
