ARCHITECTURE-LED INTERIOR DESIGN SERVICES & PROCESS — NEW YORK · INTERNATIONAL
Phase 01.
Discover & Define
(Pre-Design / Feasibility)
Before anything is drawn, everything is understood.
The process begins with an introductory call to establish the project’s scope, the client’s key needs, the building’s alteration agreement, and overall feasibility. A site visit follows, assessing existing conditions — electrical, structural, and other factors — to identify necessary adjustments early and refine costs and timelines accordingly.
Throughout, the studio defines scope, assembles the right team, and begins navigating New York’s regulatory landscape, so that the questions that matter are asked now.
This stage establishes the intellectual and strategic groundwork for a refined and enduring architectural outcome.
