Phases, Stages and Project Sequence

Coorlas Architecture offers full-service packages to orchestrate your project from start to finish. Our customizable step-by-step phasing ensures your project will be comprehensively coordinated through design, permitting, and construction. We’ll help you determine which services are required to facilitate a successful project based on the scope of work and your project type.

  • Coorlas Architecture provides on-site or online consultations to review your scope-of-work, agenda, and project goals. This process allows us to better understand your project objectives and priorities while collecting useful information to create a custom Service & Fee proposal for you.

  • During the Existing Conditions phase, we visit your location to survey the space, verify dimensions, and locate existing utility related features. This information is used to draft an existing base plan to work from. We also preliminarily review building code, municipal requirements, and zoning ordinances to confirm your project's legal compliance.

  • The Concept Design phase is our opportunity to explore the possibilities that best suit your dream vision. We offer real-time modeling sessions through screen sharing, which allows us to capture your vision in 3D with precision. Drawings and renderings from our sessions are then issued for further review.

  • Our Bid Level Drawing Set provides clients and contractors with a set of documents detailed to an appropriate level for accurate bid pricing and estimates. This step allows for design adjustments to be made based on price estimates before we finalize the design and code research for permit submission. It’s a proactive method for ensuring an economic and efficient project moving forward.

  • Based on your approved design we’ll prepare drawings and documents to be used for Permitting and Construction. This set of drawings includes in-depth detail about products, materials, and systems engineered specifically for your project as well as code verification and compliance checklists to ensure your project is legally up-to-date.

  • In the Permit Phase, we submit your Construction Documents and file the required applications for municipal review and approval. We’ll work through any items that may arise during the municipal review process and respond accordingly with updates to drawings and project documents as required.

  • The accurate and successful execution of your design will depend on our involvement during construction. We offer consultation services throughout your project’s construction and are available to answer questions or provide revised drawings as necessary based on unforeseen conditions.
