​Innovations that make your project rock, every step of the way.

Our Process

Innovation designed to keep great ideas coming, every step of the way.

1. EMPOWER
[ask + define]
No one knows your hopes
and dreams better than
you do. That’s why you’re in
charge from the beginning,
with the support of our
expertise.
Picture
2. DESIGN
[imagine + refine]
Our designers translate
dreams into innovative
concepts, by first thinking
big and then making the
best ideas work within your
budget.

3. TRANSFORM
[make + use]
​Bringing your dreams to life
means advocating for you
to make sure the finished
project looks, acts and
performs the way it should.

01 / 06

We begin by asking you a simple question about your goals - your dream - your mission for your new space. This is where active listening comes into play; your half-baked ideas and the stories that go with them provide us priceless insights into your space, and the people who occupy it.

1. EMPOWER

[ask + define]
How you answer our questions allows us to define the core principles that will be at the forethought of everything we design for you, from the master plan to the door handles. It's this belief in holistic solutions that forms the cornerstones of a space that feels molded to your everyday use - and elevates your everyday life. ​

2. DESIGN

[imagine + refine]
Now we imagine. Play. Sketch. BLDD doesn't pull from a book of pre-made designs; every project is unique and so demands ideas that are driven from site, context, and your core principles. Imagination without precedent is our strategy to give you a design that's as tailored to you as it is empowering.

2. DESIGN

[imagine + refine]
Once our walls are covered with sketches and we've brainstormed on every napkin during our morning commute, we begin to refine. Every square foot built must defend its existence in your design, and it's this approach that has proven time and time again to be empathetic to not only your vision, but also your budget. ​

3. TRANSFORM

[make + use]



​After we've refined your design into a pure, cohesive plan, we Make. BLDD's job doesn't end when we've handed off the blueprints. We collaborate with you and the contractor through every stage of construction to ensure your project is completed un-compromised, and on time.

3. TRANSFORM

[make + use]
Finally, from the spark that set the stage to the fire that forged the finished product, it's time for you to make use of your space. We're more proud than when we watched our child's first steps (okay, not that proud, but it's really, really close). While we've built a reputation for our award-winning designs, we are equally proud of the lasting friendships created with our client partners. Also, times change, and good design is good design - until it isn't. Choosing BLDD doesn't mean you've chosen an architect today; it means you've chosen a friend who's as invested in keeping your space empowering and transformative for years to come. ​
