RENOVATIONS & ADDITIONS
Renovating a building ranks high as a sustainable building practice – it also creates an exciting opportunity to evolve a space for future generations to use. Many of our renovation projects feature an updated design aesthetic and improved functionality while maintaining the original charm or history of a place.
Our expertise in residential and commercial renovation is most evident when we are asked to completely re-imagine what a space could be.
Interior Renovation is often confused with interior decorating. While the two can often blur, we define interior architecture as any physical features that relate to the structure of the building and how the structure will be used. This includes items such as cabinetry, color and finish selections, decorative lighting, and appliances.
PROPERTY CONDITION ASSESSMENTS
ADA ASSESSMENTS
Due diligence projects associated with commercial real estate. Commercial property and building inspections are important for clients seeking to know the condition of a property or real estate they may be purchasing, leasing, financing or simply maintaining. Commercial building inspectors generally follow industry accepted guidelines of ASTM E2018, the only recognized standard of major lenders. These commercial inspection standards help both the commercial building inspector and the client to understand the scope agreed to for the inspection, including the systems or areas to be inspected, and is used as a guide to develop said scopes and procedures. Often they are done as part of a property transfer and are done along with a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment.
Depending on client needs or accepted risks, and property types, some inspections can require the involvement of specialists, and some can be done by a more generalist commercial building inspector or engineer. Each varying degree of review or assessment will involve various costs and time frames.
Once the PCA is completed, a written report (also known as the property condition report, or PCR) is compiled and delivered to the client within an acceptable time frame. The report may include such items as concerns observed, recommendations for repairs or further inspections, opinions of the likely cost of future capital projects, and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance surveys.
Experienced commercial building owners, net lease occupants, commercial property investors, and lenders know the importance and benefits of hiring a qualified team to perform a property PCA.
NEW BUILDS
CDS Architect has a long legacy of excellence in residential design. My desire is to design functional homes without losing a sense of place. To achieve this balance, my homes feature simple forms that relate to the surrounding landscape and buildings. A clean design uses natural materials to create a comfortable, effortless aesthetic.
Constructing a home may be the single most important investment a client makes, so we have a strong sense of responsibility to making the most of the opportunity to serve.
Commercial design is not one-size-fits-all. I recognize that each commercial project is an opportunity to stand out. My design solutions for commercial clients consider budget, the uses of the space, and the economics of operating in their region.
