What is Design/Build?

A CULTURE OF COLLABORATION FROM START TO FINISH.

First and foremost, we are Architects. But we can be so much more. Design/build is the opportunity to have your architect build your dream. Design/build combines the design team with the construction team to provide a unified, seamless process for your project from beginning to end. Any issues that arise during the process can be addressed by the entire team leading to collaborative problem solving and innovation. This system bypasses the excuses and blame shifting that can happen in the traditional architect, contractor, owner scenario. The fundamental strength of design/build model is the architect that creates the design actually builds it also. The sculptor molds the sculpture.   Read More

With one design-build entity, the roles of designer and constructor are integrated. One entity drives one unified flow of work from initial concept through completion. United from the onset of the project, an integrated team readily works to successfully complete a project faster, more cost effectively, and with optimized project quality.  The project is allowed evolve.  As the client sees the project develop, small refinements can develop  because the architect is on site daily and is continually communicating with the client. 

Design-build is often compared to the concept of the Master Builder which existed in ancient times and into the Renaissance. Many of the great wonders of the world were created using this methodology. The Master Builder was not just a contractor or an architect or an engineer. The Master Builder was the embodiment of all three disciplines. The Master Builder concept depicts the earliest model for delivering design and construction as an integrated service. 

We here at Moon Bros Inc. know that while we are not designing one of the great wonders of the world, we are creating your great wonder.
