PASSIVE RESIDENCE
Residential Project Overview
This project involves the design and development of a private residence tailored to the specific needs, preferences, and lifestyle of the client.
Rather than applying a standardized housing model, the intent is to create a home that responds directly to its context—both in terms of site conditions and the way the space will be used on a daily basis. Careful consideration is given to spatial relationships, natural light, circulation, and long-term functionality.
The following outlines the general design-build approach applied to residential projects, from initial planning through construction.
Programming - Data Collection and Organization
The above example is a fact-gathering program analysis sheet typical at the onset of a project.
The program in this example involves several pages, sketches, and photographs that all inform the desires of the owner and the goals of the project as they relate to the limitations of the site and applicable codes.

Construction documents and permitting are straightforward aspects of the work we provide.
Our team uses various tools, from hand drafting to computer graphics, to produce documents that are efficient and clear for ease of construction as our design-build team carries out the plan.

What sets our design-build practice apart from others is the fact that we began as an architecture firm focused on accurate communication of design elements necessary to construct structures without errors, with efficiency, and with careful attention to aesthetics and details.
This is opposite of most design-build companies, which tend to be contractors that evolve to take on staff capable of producing design documents. Our evolution is what allows us to carry our thorough understanding of the design clearly through the construction process.
