ARCHITECTURE SERVICES : SPACE & FUNCTION

These architectural services are aimed at creating the plans and elevations of a house, workplace or public place based on two variables: the function and the space from an architectural point of view.

These services include the definition of a programme, the design of the space and the preparation of a preliminary project. In any case, it is about the creation of the architectural volume and the spatial and functional qualities of its interiors.
Architecture services consist of two phases: Program Definition (PD) and Schematic Project (SP).
The questions of decoration and integration of objects are separate services and correspond to the services of Design and Art Integration, presented on this page after this Architecture item.

Program Definition (PD) & On Site Visit

75 CHF x m2 (Min fee of 3000 CHF for small spaces).

On-site = 90'.
PD Duration: usually 2-4 weeks

Deliverables:

    • On Site Visit.
    • Diagnostic of existing condition via drawing(s) and situational analysis.
    • Zoning Summary and Proposal.
    • Program of needs.

At this stage the work is oriented towards a diagnosis of the existing site and its possibilities. This involves working on a zoning to be defined, visit to the site in question, a meeting with the client and a survey of their needs, the development of a functional and spatial program in accordance with their expectations and the generation of a series of visual graphic documents of the existing conditions. The focus is on the creation of a tailor-made program which will be the basis of the schematic project (SP).

Back to Index

Schematic Project (SP)

125 CHF x m2. (Min fee of 5000 CHF for small spaces).

SP Duration: usually 4-8 weeks

Deliverables:

    • Program definition (PD),
    • Preliminary Site and Floor Plans and
    • Preliminary Exterior Concept (if applicable)

The schematic project is basically the architectural idea of the whole program, translated into graphic and visual language that precedes the construction drawings phase. It is also known as a “avant-projet”. It is made up of a series of preliminary plans of implantation and floor plans per level that provide the idea of the future project in architectural language.

We focus at this stage on the question of functional and spatial optimization as well as the integration of the program within this preliminary graphic proposal. If applicable, the SP also includes a preliminary conception of the exteriors, depending on the client's request*.
Precisions on the number of plans and scales during the introductory meeting. As a complementary service to this Architecture SD you can choose one Design Package.

    * It is important to clarify that this preliminary design is not the folder of constructive plans of execution that correspond to the building and that must be treated independently with the constructor who will obviously use my work as an essential basis when producing the detailed technical drawings.
