COMMERCIAL DESIGN THAT INSPIRES
We’ve been designing and delivering engaging places locally and nationally for over a decade. With a focus on function, context, ongoing performance and of course aesthetics, we design commercial spaces that inspire.
Our core belief is to ‘create great buildings that work for people’. We achieve this through adhering to three guiding principles: consultation, community, and collaboration.
Designing and building places that affect numerous people every day is hugely important to us. It’s something we approach with passion and expertise. From the initial concept design and feasibility assessment, through to the tendering, design documentation and contract administration, we have a plan in place to ensure maximum efficiency for the project.
OUR COMMERCIAL ARCHITECTURAL PROCESS
SDA’s diverse team of experts collectively analyse each site at all scales and perspectives. We evaluate your long-term plans, growth potential, and budget. Our extensive experience spans the full facet of commercial projects, including workplace, retail, hospitality, industrial and education typologies.
METHODOLOGY
Engage & Communicate
Effective communication ensures that clients and stakeholders remain engaged in the design process. Remaining engaged encourages collaboration amongst the project team, adding rigour and momentum, resulting in the successful delivery of a project.
Analyse & Understand
2SDA analyses all aspects of a project, as we believe it is critical to the efficient delivery of a project. Through analysis, understanding and testing, we respond to the project brief and site in a considered and creative manner.
Design & Develop
SDA believes in a collaborative design approach which includes all team members. In addition to the visual and functional programme, our designs consider all the project opportunities, constraints and inputs from the client, the consultant team, stakeholders and authorities.
Co-ordinate
4SDA manage the client, all stakeholders, and consultant inputs to ensure a streamlined process that allows all parties to understand their roles and responsibilities.
Document
SDA will be responsible for conveying the scheme to the client, project team and the community. SDA, as part of the project team will provide coordinated documentation that is clear, concise and thorough to ensure the design intent is clear and unambiguous.
Review
6Continual review throughout the design process identifies potential inefficiencies, non-compliances and areas for improvement, enabling resolution prior to commencing construction.
COMMERCIAL DESIGN WITH A DIFFERENCE
Our commercial projects are deeply grounded in understanding the context of how people will experience the space. This ensures design choices are meaningful and maintain relevance over time. Together we establish strengths and constraints of the project, leverage opportunities and anticipate the unexpected.
We have the size and resources to handle large, complex projects, but we’re also small enough to provide personal, hands-on service.
Our commercial projects range from large scale medical centres to professional athletic facilities and from small restaurants to a neighbourhood bank branch. Libraries, cosmetic clinics, professional workspaces and educational facilities… We have done it all. View our portfolio to see for yourself just how special SDA’s commercial architecture is.
