Architecture is not just about the building. Architecture involves the design of space, views, and experience. Hardscape elements such as fountains, pavers, pavilions, ponds, bridges, gazebos, and even waterfalls all contribute to the experience of engaging a building in and around a site. Consider how much more meaningful a window or storefront becomes when there is something outside of it to capture to enhance your experience from within the structure. This works in reverse as well, changes in direction or elevation on a trail can lead you to focus and see different aspects of a building or bring attention to marketable qualities of your home or business. So when you are shopping for an architect for your next project, remember to consider if your particular project would benefit from some careful consideration and coordination of both building and site planning design. Here at Architectural Consulting & Design, we take pride in making sure your project is properly designed from the first instance someone enters your residential or commercial property!
