The 5 D's Archβl Design Service Roadmap

Series of consultations and site meetings where data gathering takes place, and then turning the information into a space program.
2οΈβ£ Diagnosis (Schematic Design Phase)
Evaluation of the ownerβs requirements, budget, schedule that is translated into preliminary layout as basis of the initial cost estimates.
3οΈβ£ Detailing (Design Development Phase)
Refinement of the sketches where initial utility diagrams, material specifications, more detailed drawings and cost estimates are prepared.
4οΈβ£ Documentation (Contract Documentation)
Production of necessary documents, such as complete drawing package of all trades, specifications, computational analysis reports, and bill of materials for bidding reference and building permit application.
5οΈβ£ Delivery (Construction and Project Turnover)
Awarding of the project to the winning contractor, plus occasional site visits and meetings during construction to ensure the quality of workmanship and compliance to the drawings/specifications and change orders.

This should remind us that design is more than just drawing packages or 3D renders, it is a process! π
