Contemporary construction demands so much of the team on site. Traditional building methods allow for a diminishing tolerance as the sequence of work progresses with elements like skirting boards, architrave and floor thresholds getting over whatever of that tolerance is left. It works well, but we now demand more. Modern architectural minimalist detailing, the “Shadow Gap”, “Flush Finish” is so common now it’s reaching those homes where traditional methods used to be enough. Unfortunately, to achieve these contemporary looks, exacting construction details need to be followed. Add into the mix the hugely collaborative design processes that goes into these homes and you’ve got a recipe for disaster if not handled correctly from the offset.
Design Coordination - Architects, Structural Eng., Joinery, M&E, Lighting, Interiors, a set of drawings for each. Good luck Site Managers! Having a dedicated team member to bring all of this together to offer a single route of communication and integrated plans where required streamlines the process and avoids mistakes.
Detailing and Technologist Services - Sometimes going back to the architect isn’t the best option for your project. Designing collaboratively with the construction team works.
