Seamless Integration of Design and Construction for Flawless Results

A Design Build is a comprehensive approach to construction projects where a single entity takes responsibility for both the design and construction phases. This method streamlines the process, ensuring effective communication, enhanced collaboration, and efficient execution of the project from inception to completion.

Design Build vs. New Construction

Design Build and New Construction are two distinct approaches to construction projects, each with its unique processes and benefits.


1. Design Build: In this approach, a single entity takes responsibility for both the design and construction phases of a project. It streamlines the process by combining the roles of designer and builder, which results in better communication, increased collaboration, and a faster project timeline. The client has a single point of contact throughout the project, making it easier to manage and reducing the potential for miscommunication. Design Build projects often involve renovations, remodels, or additions to existing structures.


2. New Construction: This approach typically refers to the construction of an entirely new building or structure from the ground up. In contrast to Design Build, New Construction often involves separate entities for design and construction, with the client serving as a mediator between the two parties. This approach can sometimes result in longer project timelines, increased costs, and communication challenges due to the involvement of multiple parties. However, New Construction provides the opportunity to create a completely customized space built to the client's specifications.

What Our Design Build Services Include

Design Build services encompass various elements that contribute to a seamless and efficient construction process. These services integrate design and construction aspects, providing clients with a one-stop solution for their projects. Four key elements typically included in Design Build services are:

  • Pre-construction Consultation

    This stage involves understanding the client's vision, requirements, and budget to create a tailored project plan. It includes site analysis, feasibility studies, and preliminary cost estimates.


  • Architectural Design

    A team of skilled architects and designers work closely with the client to develop creative and functional design concepts. This stage includes schematic designs, design development, and permit-ready construction documents.

  • Construction Management

    A dedicated project manager oversees the construction process, ensuring that the project stays on schedule and within budget. This includes coordinating with subcontractors, managing materials and labor, and handling permits and inspections.

  • Post-construction Support

    After the project's completion, Design Build services often include ongoing support to ensure client satisfaction. This can involve warranty assistance, addressing any issues that may arise, and providing maintenance recommendations and guidelines to help clients protect their investment and enjoy their newly renovated space for years to come.
