Schematic Design: Palm Coast, St. Augustine and Daytona Beach

When working with an architect, the first step is to meet with them and discuss your vision for the project. With Brian Lathrop, Architect & Architecture For Health, this step involves an exploration of your goals and needs for the building, two essential factors in determining how the rest of the project will proceed. Normally this is followed by Project Analysis, but at the very least, by Space Programming.

Once that has been completed, the next step is to create a schematic design, which is the first opportunity you will have to see your vision translated into something tangible. When St. Augustine is in need of expertly designed structures, they know to trust our talented architect; our ability to create accurate, reliable schematic designs is just another field we excel in.

What is Schematic Design?

Schematic design is part of the preliminary planning process and takes place after you have met with Mr. Lathrop to discuss your project. During this phase, we will start with schematic planning to test that the project Program can actually be designed within the project scope.

The schematic design will also allow you to see how we have interpreted your vision, and allow you to make any changes to the design before we move forward with the next step. In addition to a conceptual schematic plan, other drawings may be used to communicate the proposed design in 3 dimensions.

The Importance of Schematic Design

As with the Project Analysis phase, the schematic designs Brian Lathrop, Architect & Architecture For Health produces are an essential part of the architectural process. Not only does it present itself as the first chance to see how your proposed building will look, but it gives you a sense of how it holds up to the image you had in your mind.

Once the design has been created for you, we are also able to reassess the cost of the project, given the dimensions and complexity of the structure. Good design comes from the ability to find the perfect combination of numerous factors, spanning budget, environment and architectural vision. With a schematic design, you can begin to see this process in action.
