SITE COORDINATION

Good design requires great execution. As architects, we take our best efforts to ensure that our designs are constructed exactly as intended.

Once design is finalised, We make construction drawings, equipping thesiteteamwithallthenecessary clearanceswhereverrequired.

With an eye for detail and a problem solving attitude, We value our physical site visits as a critical tooltoensurethattheconstruction process and coordination with the siteteamissmooth.

Any interior project is a long process that starts from understanding a site, to designing, to constructing it, with multiple parties such as client, contractors, vendors,architect,etc. We are here, to take you through these processes and ensure that you have your dream space ready asyouhad visualisedit.

A systematic 10 step process is followedtoensuresmoothworking andbestresults.
