Programming
Programming is the gathering and transformation of raw data regarding philosophies, operations, function, etc., into comprehensive documents for design. Onsite interview, interactive workshop(s), and data collecting all contribute to the unique and proper architectural solution. Astute programming is the foundation that translates into exceptional projects. VIA Concepts recommends and advocates programming services to all clients.

Design
VIA Concepts’ architectural design is based on mutually agreed-upon program, schedule, and construction budget requirements. This design solution was formed through dialogue, inquiry, and challenging assumptions that consists of client’s data, environmental influences, cost influences, and space and engineering standards. The design solution becomes an outline solution by the design team and reflects the personality and aspirations of the client and project discovered through programming.
  • Client Data:
    functional needs, space requirements, user description, philosophy, feedback data.

  • Environmental Influences:
    site topography, legal restrictions, statutory constraints, climate, view, light, wind, noise.

  • Cost Influences:
    cost limits, site development costs, effect of design decisions on building cost, operating cost, maintenance cost.

  • Space and Engineering Standards:
    governing body recommendations, building codes, life safety regulations, heating venting and air conditioning standards, quality of materials and environment.
Furthermore, the design solution has to take advantage of material properties, environmental, as well as architectural and social forces; the end result will be a delightful and satisfying solution: It exceeds client expectations, is within budget, is aesthetically pleasing, is in harmony with the existing environment, and it reflects the essence of the community.

Construction Documentation
Construction documents generally have two parts:
The working drawings and the technical specifications. Normally, information on the design, location, and dimensions of the building elements are found in working drawings, and information on the quality of materials and workmanship are found in the specifications. These documents indicate detailed graphic and written instructions of the required materials, finishes and workmanship for the contractor to construct the build form. VIA Concepts knows the importance of creating a design and producing exceptional documents for construction.

Construction Administration
VIA Concepts’ team members stay with the design from inception through construction and assist the owner by providing information about the progress and quality of the construction work. Observations include whether the construction is being performed in accordance to the construction documents. Continuity and critical knowledge of this crucial phase is not only cost effective, but ensures proper design execution.
