Our Philosophy
Connect. Design. Serve. Succeed.
To do good work.
To work well with others.
To be of service.
To be remembered fondly.
“…the design phase of a project traditionally accounts for a small part of the cost of the total project budget, but this small percent is the single, most important factor in determining the cost and success of the remaining percent of the project.”
Bass Studio Architects is a design firm.
Design is the least tangible, yet the single most important service an architect brings to the project.
We define design as the process of making individual decisions toward a complete, conceptual whole — creative problem solving. The role of the architect is not only that of helping to arrive at the decisions, but to help structure the questions.
Value: Bass Studio Architects keeps the focus on value and sustainability in our design process. We find that materials employed consistent with a rigorous design theme need not be expensive, fragile or exotic to achieve a rich result.
The Client is the most essential member of the design team. The client’s goals, budgets and preferences set the parameters by which the key questions are structured.
The Project is not the drawings or the finished construction. For Bass Studio Architects, the project is the process, the decisions, the client and the interactive structure by which the work is completed and the feelings that remain when the construction is completed.
Bass Studio Architects defines success as arriving at a physical reality that manifests the stated goals and desires of the client, on time and on budget.
