We work throughout all phases of architectural design. Our services include:

​

Site Assessment + Zoning Analysis

We provide site assessment to help you understand what's possible before you start your project. We also provide zoning analysis at the start of your project so you know what you can and can’t be built. Use, height restrictions, setbacks, and bulk requirements are all critical to understanding how large your building can be and what your municipality will allow.

​

Programming

We analyze your greenfield site, existing campus, or collection of buildings to help you plan for the future, providing a comprehensive inventory of all your assets including building’s, landscape, and equipment.  DBA will make sense of what you have, what you need for growth, and provide a long-term architectural vision for your business or institution.

​​

Conceptual Design and Visioning

We provide conceptual design alternatives for your consideration so you can make sound decisions and invest in the right solution. Our design team will build three-dimensional models and provide photorealistic renderings so you can visualize what it will look like.

​

​Schematic Design, Design Development and Construction Documentation 

We document our designs so they can be built. Our drawings and specifications will provide your builder with the right information to create accurate cost estimates and prepare the project for construction.

​​

Municipal Approvals and Permitting

We have extensive experience working with building departments, planning boards and building inspectors. We understand building code regulations and will prepare permitting drawings so that your project can be approved quickly and without delay.

​

Project Management and Construction Oversight

We stay involved. We provide construction administration services to monitor design intent and ensure the project is delivered to the standards you expect.
