Designing truly outstanding architecture is a challenge SAI Architecture is always ready to take on. We thrive when problem-solving and delivering exceptional architectural designs to our clients and general contractors in mid-Missouri. While this may be a difficult undertaking for many, the process we’ve created to guarantee success has led our firm since 1989. The first step is always a consultation, so reach out to our architecture design firm to learn how SAI Architecture stands out as mid-Missouri’s preferred firm for commercial design.
Before you commit to an architect, it’s important to know they can deliver the level of service and design you expect. Building or renovating a small commercial property may not appeal to some architectural firms, while others may not be capable of building to the scale your operation requires. Consulting with several architects is the best way to make sure you are working with the right firm for your needs. This is why every project we work on always begins with a consultation.
During your consultation with SAI Architecture, you can expect to talk about your goals for your build or renovation as well as your budget and timeline. SAI Architecture will review your needs and expectations and create a proposal for our services. Should you choose to work with our architects, designers, and project managers, we can begin designing concepts for you right away.
Designing project concepts is one of the most collaborative aspects of our architectural design projects. This is when we work closely with you to edit and revise drafts. You may choose to eliminate a feature you thought was essential upfront, or may realize the build could be improved with a new feature. This collaboration is essential to the success of your build, and once we’ve selected a design, we’ll begin to formally render the build.
3D renderings and visualizations are a great tool for fully imagining what your new construction or renovation project will look like. We can walk you through a virtual reality model of the design for a 360-degree view of every little detail. This is the final phase of drafting and design, and with your approval, we’ll draft the construction documents and hand them over to you or your general contractor or construction manager. Even though our primary job may be complete, SAI Architecture will remain involved in your build or renovation until the end.
Once the designs are in the hands of a contractor, it is helpful for SAI Architecture to remain involved should the builder or construction manager have questions. This is especially important in cases of renovations when concerns surrounding the age of the building and utilities may arise. While we try to eliminate these concerns before the build or renovation begins, unexpected issues may still occur. SAI Architecture will remain active and communicative with the general contractor and you to quickly troubleshoot. Communication is a core value of ours, and we never dance around problems or setbacks. Instead, we face the challenges of building or renovating a commercial property head-on.
Once your project is complete and you’re ready to start your business or organization up, SAI Architecture will capture drone footage of the completed project. This can be utilized across your digital channels and will be incorporated into our portfolio. As an architectural firm of good character and creative problem-solving, we will remain a trusted partner for your future endeavors.
