Of Here provides a wide range of services that integrate both the design and construction aspects of a project. Here is an overview of our process:

Construction & Management

Site Research: Observing and documenting climate, flora and fauna, geological and topographical formations, vernacular building methodologies, and local resources available for construction.

Site Selection & Surveys: Assessing the suitability of a site for a project and gathering local code requirements. 

Programming: Gathering client's requirements to understand the constraints, such as desired areas, time frame and budget.

 

Conceptual Design: Initial design iterations developed through sketches, drawings, models, and conversations with clients.

Schematic Design: Drawing preliminary floor plans, elevations, sections to understand site and desired design in greater accuracy.

Design Development: Documenting details of design, materials, and systems. Using tools such as 3D modelling, visualisation, and walk-throughs to communicate the design to clients.

Technical Development: Collaborating with engineers and builders to incorporate and document details of design. 

Code compliance and permitting: Ensuring the design meets the local building codes and regulations. Preparing and submitting documents necessary for permits.
 

Design-Build Approach: Ensuring that the design and construction are in coordination.

Analysis of Materials: Calculating cost estimates and quantities. Organising delivery of materials and storage.

Construction Management and Participation: Closely working with builders during construction* and managing communication with client.
