One of the earliest steps in our design process is illustrating the forces that will affect a future design. It is imperative for us to understand how a new project will interact with its surroundings, make us feel, appear throughout the season, and accommodate the needs of future occupants.

Modeling the forces of nature, circulation patterns, and views are some of the ways we can ensure that the nuances of a project are discovered and understood by both designer and client. The combination of these studies, communication between parties, and clear and appealing imagery helps each party to be heard and understood, discoveries to be made, and generate excitement for a developing project.
