Our Process
We have a flexible 5-phase approach to achieve the highest quality of service and implementation, and to value engineer your design and/or procurement. Our flexibility means we can meet any demand of your project, adapting our approach as necessary to continue to stay within budget.
Our Five Phase Process:
Phase 1: Define overall scope
- Detailed outline of design intent by DHospitality staff, and all involved parties. IE: Ownership, Management, other firms (Architect, Interior Design), etc as necessary.
- Investigation and evaluation of design, and organization into files required by owners, contractors, and architects.
- Identification of materials: specs book, ordering samples and coordination into finish schedules/index. A complete recap of all interior FF&E specs inside the drywall.
- Storyboards – compile and arrange into each category a storyboard for rooms, bath, corridors and all public areas
- Prepare required documentation by contractors, architect, and governing body.
Phase 2: Preliminary Design
- Formulate design approach in order to achieve requirements by ownership and other parties as appropriate.
- Investigate several design alternatives for cost effective design and coordinate into floor plans, elevations, reflective ceiling plan and finish schedule.
- Prepare independent elevations and floors plans for design submission and make sure tags match spec book
- Preliminary coordination of finish schedule and index.
Phase 3: Design submissions
