Our Process and method
At AKA, our architectural process begins with an intense briefing session to thoroughly understand our clients' needs and visions. We then transition into hand drawings and sketches, capturing the essence of the project in its initial stages. As the design develops, we move into digital media, utilizing Archicad for detailed modeling and Twinmotion for advanced rendering. Our process is further enhanced with the support of the Adobe Suite, ensuring that every project is meticulously crafted and visually compelling from concept to completion.

What we do and how its done
We believe that trust and communication are critical during for the Architect and Client relationship.
Most of the time, this relationship can be tested a lot. Mostly due to confusion and miscommunications.
To assist our residential clients, we have developed a short guide that describes the 6 Architectural services stages. Our hope is that it can assist in familiarizing the client with how all of this works and what they should expect. Ensuring a smooth and informed journey from start to finish. While it's ready for new clients now, it will continually evolve and improve throughout my career. Your feedback and experiences will shape it into an even more valuable resource over time. Please contact us for the digital or hard copy.
