In Form Studio

Description

Architecture The inFORM studio practice of architecture approaches the discipline as an integrated facet of a much larger comprehensive design process, rather than a singular component process. Employing an analytical philosophy, the work achieves integrated solutions through constructed environments with results that benefit space needs, economics, environmental stewardship, and cultural relevance. Achieving signigicant recognition for a diverse palette of expertise illustrates the capacity of the firm to situate a design process relevant to client needs. inFORM studio collaborates with numerous experts in various disciplinces challenging notions of the formulaic solution with designs that demonstrate a higher value yielded to the client, community, and the environment. Master Planning The integration of constructed and natural environments within the means of economic feasibility is the essence of a sustainable, successful master plan. The inFORM studio master planning process engages multiple, relevant disciplines with recognized expertise in specialites such as market analysis, economic feasibility, climate engineering, energy management, transit, infrastructure, ecology, hydrology, and water management. This expertise is translated into a highly engaging community outreach and public participation process designed to galvanize all stakeholders. The result is the development of a highly sophisticated body of analysis translated into tangible visual graphics illustrating research, vision, strategies, a comprehensive design, and implementation techniques. Depending on the context, the final Master Plan could be formatted in a variety of ways. Highly visual summary versions of the plan can be developed for wide distribution, slide and video presentations, book format, museum exhibits, large-scale models, press packages for targeted audiences, websites, billboards and other media used to communicate the essence of the design. Urban Design Urban design is a broadly definded discipline inherently centered around place-making. A true sense of place is defined by its appropriateness for human activity and the inherent sense of stewardship a community attains for the space that defines it. The inFORM studio practice of urban design blends the attributes of an engaging participatory process that listens intently to client and community with a design process layered with critical thought. The process challenges a more fomulaic response that is so often the solution to urban design ideas with exciting propositions that uniquely represent their institutions, organizations, and communities alike. inFORM studio aspires to realize urban design (place-making) within countless environments that may include plazas, rooftops, transportation infrastructure, bridges, landscape, waterfronts, campuses, large scale interiors, street corridors, or any type of loosely defined district or region. The potential of urban design to positively transform any type of location is innumerable, requiring only a desire and vision to achieve it.
