a S OL a "at A Oka an IN IM■■ man r. .Pft ,. . Design Support Today's work environments pose various dynamic challenges that leaders are expected to address. We are committed to be a knowledgeable source, armed with the most innovative, healthy and visually interesting solutions possible. We pass this knowledge on to our clients in order to elevate your workplace with an environment that is highly functional, visually exciting and is a cutting -edge solution for your business needs. In order to deliver an environment that meets the specific needs of our clients, we have identified a pragmatic design progression, outlined below, that ensures all facets of a successful project are identified and carried out the GSM way. Discovery This phase maybe defined through consultation, in which case a WE team member, and the Account Executive will meet with the client to discuss and identify the vision, mission, goals and criteria for the project as it pertains to each department within the facility. During the discovery sessions we will identify the work styles, collaborative needs, tools associated with each role and understand the activities workers engage in throughout the day in order to move work forward. Through our understanding of the space needs, work styles, and ratio of collaborative to individual work we can develop designs for supportive work settings. The GSM Electronic Customer Questionnaire's may also be developed, administered and dispersed to different departments and their staff to amass and evaluate space requirements for workstation typical development if so desired by the client. This phase will also include site documentation: field measurement and identification of all existing conditions such as electrical outlets, light switches, thermostats, sill heights, ceiling heights etc. Design Development The information gathered during discovery will be applied to develop circulation diagrams, setting diagrams, furniture space plans color scheme concepts, and material options to be presented and reviewed by the client. Revisions to the design will be made based on client feedback until all elements are approved and designed through scale drawings, material samples, renderings, and mock-ups as required.
