Services

One continuous line from the first feasibility study to the final field condition.

01

Strategy before the lease

Early analysis turns a possible address into an informed decision.

Programming + space planning

Interviews and preliminary plans define current and future requirements, then test whether a candidate building can support them efficiently.

Lease review + consultation

Physical, operational, and mechanical needs are compared against the lease and work letter so deficiencies can be addressed during negotiation.

Work letters

Landlord work letters are reviewed—or prepared for the client—to clarify obligations, infrastructure, and potential exposure.

Project budgets

Soft and construction costs are organized early to establish an actionable project budget.

02

Design + approvals

A clear design path, grounded in code and the realities of delivery.

Architecture + interiors

Strategic planning, master planning, programming, schematic design, design development, FF&E, and construction documents.

Code + zoning analysis

Code consulting and municipal approval services coordinate the project with regulatory agencies and support a reliable path to occupancy.

Documentation

Coordinated drawing packages translate design intent into clear technical information for pricing, permitting, and construction.

03

Delivery

The design stays present after the drawings leave the studio.

Project schedules

Critical milestones are established from schematic design through closeout and monitored as the project advances.

Project management

C3D coordinates ownership, consultants, contractors, and specialized disciplines around the project schedule.

Construction administration

Field observation, submittal review, responses, and design consultation protect the quality and clarity of the work during construction.
