Creative Architecture tailored for fast paced schedules!

The level of involvement an architect provides during construction varies on every project. Mike’s extensive experience in field observation and multiple construction techniques allows him to know what to look for. At a minimum, an architect needs to review shop drawings and provide punch list inspections. Site observation services should tailored to meet each project’s needs.

Construction Observation

Mike uses Building Information Modeling (BIM) software for all his projects. With BIM software, Mike creates a 3D virtual model of your  building. All necessary documentation and representations are derived automatically. By creating a virtual model of your building, quick 3D colored photo realistic renderings; 2D plans, elevations, sections; or Construction Documents can be provided in electronic or hard copy.

Gone are the days of manually drawing 2D lines to represent a building. Because your building is created as a virtual building, changes can be made quickly and will automatically update all output. Yes, the plans, elevations, section, and 3D views automatically update themselves.

BIM software also generates materials lists, door and window schedules, etc. to give you quantitative information you and your contractor can use as the design develops.

Building Information Modeling (BIM)

With the incorporation of computer aided design, Mike has virtually omitted the traditional “design development” phase. Detailed schematic design documents made up of floor plans, exterior elevations, building sections can be used for preliminary pricing by contractors and can allow a quick transition into construction documents.

Schematic Design

Mike’s clients have enjoyed a 100% success rate for municipal approval over the last three years. Mike understands the process and can help guide your project through, what can be a somewhat cumbersome process.
