Architecture
Architecture is about taking ideas and through research and exploration, using movement, light and materiality to produce functionally beautiful buildings that stimulate memories and experiences. The process starts from the first time an idea is mentioned to the time the first user enters the architectural space. Therefore, we believe in a continual and integral design process, providing master planning, conceptual design, schematic design, design development, construction documentation and construction administration services.
Interior Architecture
In today’s culture, 90% of peoples’ time is spent indoors. This means the materials we select can have an significant effect on the health of those who occupy the spaces. Therefore, we only specify materials and processes that are sensitive to the health and well-being of the users, considering both the interior and exterior environments together. We also understand the significance an interior space can have on people’s mood and productivity. At DesignLeveL, we work closely with our clients to understand their intended responses for their spaces whether it’s restful, energetic, meditative, or inspiring. We then work to balance the feel, materials, and spatial composition to make spaces that are meaningful and successful.
Planning
Context and future growth are essential to the life span of a building. At DesignLeveL we view the existing site conditions and context as an architectural opportunity rich in possibilities for discovery, transformation, and use. Considering the subtleties of 'place' in relationship to the natural surroundings in addition to community context provides for a thoughtful, planned harmony between a building and its environment. Through rigorous site analysis, including the study of sight lines, solar orientation, pedestrian and vehicular circulation, access and parking, we determine the most balanced solution for the project at hand. We prefer to tread lightly on the land as we believe a building conceived of and for its specific site is, by nature, an important part of a structure's sustainability. In addition, we work with our clients to plan for growth into the future, allowing for flexible, developmental, and functional changes in both our master, site, and facility planning efforts. At the facility level, we focus on planning principles that align departmental and strategic goals to ensure that operational efficiencies and functional goals are realized. Considering various scenarios, we find the most balanced solution for the 'now' and 'then'.
