Computational Design & Digital Fabrication

Our ability to create prototypes and mockups in-house accelerates informed decision-making and closes the gap between what's imaginable and what's buildable.

Unique features ground people in a specific place. Finding the right moments for such features helps expand the impact our clients’ spaces can have on their employees, visitors, and communities.

Approach

Computational Design & Digital Fabrication help minimize waste in the design process and in our projects.

Save Time
Parametric design speeds up our ability to test variables and understand their potential results before investing in mockups. It helps clients make informed decisions about where to invest their design dollars so they have the desired impact.

Reduce Waste
Our in-house mockup capabilities and our relationships with local fabricators allow us to demonstrate the buildability of unique features to construction partners so materials are used wisely, waste is reduced or eliminated, costs are appropriately estimated, and installation is simplified. All of this helps maintain craft and design intent from concept through construction.

Be More Informed
Tools like Augmented Reality go beyond floor plans and diagrams to help our clients clearly understand their space as it takes shape. AR also accelerates informed decision-making by bringing multiple users and stakeholders together to experience how their space will ultimately function and feel. Drone photography allows our eyes to go where our bodies can’t (due to difficult or dangerous conditions) to assess existing buildings for things like water damage or quickly create study models.
