What We Offer
Needs Assessment & Lease Fit Plans
Let's ensure you're leasing the right space.
Rest assured knowing you have selected a location that is appropriate for your needs. Let us help you from the beginning. Our needs-assessment and fit-plans can ensure you have leased the location that is correctly sized for your requirements. We can run preliminary budgets to also ensure that you stay within your budget.
Programming
Good design starts with good information.
We encourage strong dialogue with our clients from the beginning of each project to ensure your design objectives, spatial requirements and budgetary considerations are taken into account throughout the space planning and design phases.
Space Planning
Putting the pieces together.
Using the programming we developed with you, we prepare preliminary space plan options to show you how your functional requirements can best be adapted to your new or renovated space.
Design Concept & Development
Bring your vision to reality.
Once your goals are established, we develop and refine the concept designing a project that is unique to you. We can also prepare a preliminary budget to ensure your design vision is in line with your budget expectations. No surprises here!
Furniture Selection (FF+E)
Good furniture makes all the difference.
Looking to furnish your new space with beautiful and functional furniture? We can help! At Arris, we have close relationships with furniture dealers around Vancouver. We source quality and well-designed pieces for your new and improved space.
Contract Documentation
Let's get technical.
Every design needs precise documentation consisting of working drawings and specifications. These ensure all construction and installation requirements conform to the life, health, safety, and building codes, all while maintaining design integrity. Leave the nitty-gritty details for us to handle.
Tendering or Design/Build
Connecting you to the right resources.
We can develop a tender package to submit to local, qualified contractors who have the skill and experience to implement your project. Or we can suggest our preferred contractors to create a simplified design/build approach to your project.
Project Implementation & Follow Up
Getting to the finish line - and beyond.
We work with the Contractor throughout the building phase to ensure conformance to the contract documentation and specifications. No project is finished until you, the designer, and contractor determine all outstanding items have been completed.
