3. Design Development Phase (DD)
“Bring the idea into focus”
Based on the results of SD, we develop the design with more specifics in form, material, products, etc. These decisions help solidify design issues in preparation for the construction documents. Drawings are typically larger and more accurately drafted than SD. A number of specific products may be researched and selected. Square footage and cost are revisited.
