Design
Our unique process, original outlook, and best-of-class tools enable us to deliver creative, sustainable, & constructible designs.
- Our agile process lets us quickly adapt to client, city, or site demands. This means we can embrace change instead of fear it. We can also step in seamlessly when challenged with an undefined or fast project.
- We are a creative team that build things for a living. This gives us a deep understanding of the realities of construction and the market.
- Being experts at Building Information Modeling and digital fabrication, our company has abilities that most traditional firms simply don't. Our tools reduce errors, speed up production, and allow us to produce projects more efficiently and effectively.
Construction
Our in-house production shop, digital fabrication tools, and professional experience with sustainable materials & finishes let us effectively build anything.
- 3,000 square foot CNC-enabled production shop in West Oakland, complete with onsite non-toxic water-based eco-friendly finishing facility, makes the more custom pieces for your project local and affordable.
- We use Robots. Computer-controlled cutting tools, including our own in-house CNC router, allow for us to automate production of repetitive elements and make totally custom items affordable. It also means we have a lot of hands-on experience when it comes to prefabrication.
- Having made a great many things with sustainable materials and finishing, we have a wide range of practical experience to bring to your project. We know what's really 'green' and no-so-green, and what's a joy to work with (and what's not so good).
Strategy & Support
We are experts at Building Information Modeling, digital fabrication, and design.
- Building Information Modeling is a new way of designing and producing projects. It reduces errors, increases communication, and speeds up production. It lets us design and model up anything at the drop of a hat, while keeping it build-able, affordable, and ready for production.
- We may not have jetpacks, but it is the future, and we've got giant robots that makes things for us. Being experts at digital fabrication, we can make anything quickly and way more accurately than possible by hand. And we can make many things you simply couldn't by hand.
- Knowing what not to do is sometimes more important than knowing how or what to do. Having solved many challenging problems both in regards to design and constructibility, we're very creative at getting great things built in an affordable way. In addition to our in-house award-winning design crew, we've got an extensive network of artists, fabricators, and designers to collaborate with when projects bring on big demands.
