Services
Great outcomes happen when the right people are working toward the same goal.
Programming
The operational and physical requirements of a facility are defined by functional and space programming. Lupton Rausch Architecture + Interior Design works closely with a client during this phase to gather information about ideas, images, philosophy and culture, as well as details about how the particular organization operates. It is our philosophy that anything that affects the design, schedule and cost of a project will be known at the conclusion of the programming stage. Significant data may include employment and productivity forecasts, work or activity flow analyses, traffic patterns, workplace standards and specific task requirements. An accurate and detailed programming phase results in cost efficient space concepts and encourages an environment that responds to the needs of its users.
Site Analysis
Comprehensive planning services include site/zoning analysis, master planning and development guidelines. To develop an optimum plan, Lupton Rausch Architecture + Interior Design provides concept alternatives which maximize opportunities while minimizing constraints of the facility or site. Land use, transportation, utility, economic and environmental issues are studies from a macro, as well as a micro perspective. Staff also can facilitate required zoning approvals by working closely with the client as well as community groups and municipalities.
Architectural
The architectural staff has in-depth experience serving clients with municipal, corporate, health care and educational facilities. Architectural services are comprehensive in scope, ranging from conceptual design through construction administration and post-occupancy evaluation. At Lupton Rausch Architecture + Interior Design, principals provide management, design and technical overview of all services provided to clients.
Interior Design
Interior design capabilities include a full range of services from pre-lease work through design and implementation. Lupton Rausch Architecture + Interior Design has worked with clients on program development, space standard analysis, space planning, building and/or workletter analysis, design conceptualization and development, contract documents, bidding and contract administration, as well as furniture specification and procurement assistance. Additional capabilities include workstation analysis, facility management and three-dimensional design utilizing BIM.
Construction Administration
Construction administration services focus on monitoring all aspects of construction and representing the Owner from the initial notice to proceed to final inspection and occupancy. The Project Manager, augmented by the project design team, focus on schedule progress, quality control, monitoring of shop drawings and conformance to contract documents, and financial assessment of the project. Lupton Rausch Architecture + Interior Design’s staff use a particular methodology for keeping the Owner informed during this critical phase. Field services may include periodic site visits or full-time, on-site project representation. The intensity of field services is determined by the project schedule, type of construction contract, complexity of the project, and the Owner’s needs.
