Architectural Concepts

PROJECT APPROACH - Architectural Concepts recommends and team approach to each project. The team is composed of the Owner's representatives, Architectural Concept's staff, all design consultants, the end user's staff, and the contractor (if selected). All team members work with a hands on approach to design and documentation unde the coordination of Architectural Concpet's Principal.  The Team is established at the start of each project with the leadership determined by Architectural Concepts.  Each team member is selected based upon their experience with the type of project being considered and for their ability to work with other team members. Communication is key to coordination of the team.  Meetings are conducted as appropriate.

QUALITY CONTROL - Overall coordination is controlled by deliverables prepared jointly by all design consultants.  These may include as necessary a project schedule, a project directory of all participants, a basis of design outline document, information sheets, meeting notes, and a project status report. Quality assurance is a process that begins with the people we help the owner select for the team.  They bring a wealth of experience to the project, as well as a commitment to excellence in their contribution.
