The Design Process, from Start to Finish
Welcome to a new blog series by Pretty Smart! Here we wanted to take you on a deep dive into the 5 step architectural design process. We use these steps with every project we take on. Each week we will go over one step, in order, providing you insight and answering any questions you may have. For instance, you might be asking, “What is the architecture design process?”
The five steps are as follows:
Schematic Design
Design Development
Permit Documents RTI (Ready to Issue)
Construction Management
Each stage is critical to the success of the project. They require careful planning, attention to detail, and collaboration between professionals within the industry. By using these steps, we are able to keep track of our projects, ensuring that they are completed on time, and to our client’s satisfaction.
Stay tuned for the first deep dive in the series, where we walk you through pre-design and programming!
