We really pay great attention to keeping the remodel a pleasant experience for everyone involved and find solutions to every problem.
The work would include collaborating closely with the firm principal, architects and interior designers on graphical and drafting standards. It would also include interfacing with design team who tend to take the models to a micro level of details mostly on the inside. All of our work is in Revit. The full-service approach and the highly integrated departments tend to set us apart from other firms out there. We also collaborate closely with the builders and see the projects through all the way to the end.
