RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL ARCHITECTURE

Professional Client Services

 

Planning and Pre-Design - NSArchitects performs site analysis, development master planning, and feasibility studies. Experience includes design and planning for successful special exception and optional method development projects. Concept development is often the key ingredient to successful development.

Site Design - NSArchitects' site design is timely and compliant, with functional, regulatory and aesthetic issues addressed before the rigors of civil and other site engineering consultation set in.

Building and Facilities Design - the principal occupation of NSArchitects involves design for buildings. "No attitude" may be the very best prescriptive for a "design attitude."  NSArchitects has abandoned conventions espousing a "philosophy" of design focusing instead on the client's needs, wants, concerns, programs, problems, budgets, plans, finances, analyses, and not least of all, philosophies. Our love of architecture is not diminished by placing attention on what matters most outside of "design preferences".  At the core, abstractions of space and form are seldom what matters. This architecture is directed at what matters most to the customer.


 

Interior Architecture - Buildings are memorable from their outward appearance, but symmetrically important is the configuration of interior space.  NSArchitects design is based on the management of daylight and artificial light, of natural ventilation and mechanical air systems, of environmentally safe materials, of the integration of technology, of sensible furnishings, equipment, and built-ins, and as a matter of utmost importance, of safe and secure building prerogatives.

Regulatory Assistance - For new, existing, and converted buildings, there's no escaping the assault of regulation. But, there are always solutions. It may be the need for ADA compliance surveys and barrier removal projects, building and life safety code investigation, or zoning analyses. Due diligence assessments evaluate the the extent of regulatory involvement early in the design process. Alternative or compensatory compliance solutions are also a design service, often the product of negotiation between building officials and NSArchitects.

Computer Graphics - NSArchitects aggressively improves its technical and talent stock to provide the most illustrative, comprehensible graphics, for construction documents, 3-D computer modeling, renderings, portfolio pieces, reports, etc. Our computer capability is in a continual state of "upgrade".


Construction Administration, Permit Expedition, Record Surveys - NSArchitects is a full service architectural design firm and provides service to complete the project through its various phases. The Construction Administration service is the single most important factor in an Owner's control of quality in the construction project.
