We believe our work is fun.
The BD process relies heavily on constant collaboration among members
of our firm, infused by feedback from our clients. We believe that two
heads are better than one and that a collaborative process yields the
most delightful and effective designs. Our design discussions are
characterized by talking and scribbling openly about ways to make each
design the best it can be.
We begin our process by getting to know our clients and honing in on
the major themes and needs of the project. These requirements will
direct the trajectory of the project throughout the entire course of
its development. Together with our clients, we test different
alternatives to make sure the priorities of the project are being met.
We believe that iterative exploration is the best way to ensure that
our design solutions are as beautiful and functional as possible.
Back in our studio, we work together to develop and refine the design
through hand sketching, digital drafting, and 3D digital modeling. As
a project matures, we use working drawings of increasing complexity to
communicate our ideas to our clients, get their feedback, and make
important design decisions. BD is unique in that we typically follow a
project all the way from site analysis, programming, and schematic
design through construction documentation and administration, ensuring
that the themes and needs identified at the beginning of the project
are inherent in the final product.
