Imagine
At the base of any architectural project, there’s an idea, a dream or a need to be satisfied. At GFM Architects, we take the time to listen to you to understand your goals and help you define the project you want to achieve. This essential step is also an opportunity to approach all the issues to be considered and the opportunities to be seized in order to plan the project according to your choices, the environment and your budget and the regulatory framework in force.
Design
This is the stage during which your project takes shape in the mind of our team of architects. From the completion of the first sketches to the finalization of plans and specifications, several steps will validate the chosen options, correct certain details, obtain all the necessary permits, choose the materials, establish the budget and retain professional services (builders, engineers, etc.) to ensure the project’s success.
Create
At the time of putting together the conceptualized project, while the building site is underway, our role remains just as essential. We also supervises the completion of the work to ensure that construction is carried out according to plans and specifications and the established schedule. Furthermore, we work with responsible engineers and contractors to solve any problems and modify plans if necessary.
