Design and build sit under one contract, so the detail that gets drawn is the detail that gets built.
One contract from the first section to the last handover.
Drawing and building sit under the same roof, so the detail that gets drawn is the detail that gets built. No translation loss between a designer’s intent and a contractor’s quote, because there is no handover between them.
Made for the room it is measured in.
Curved walls do not take standard sofas. When the geometry is drawn first, the furniture is drawn with it — sectionals on the plan radius, joinery that runs the length of a wall, storage that disappears into it.
The half of the job nobody photographs.
Structure, services, waterproofing, and the unglamorous sequencing that decides whether a basement pool is a feature or a problem. It is where a design-build firm either earns its fee or quietly fails.
