1 Design Narrative

The project design intent is to follow the Task Order Statement of Work program and building design concept. The team will focus on creating an atmosphere that is eco friendly and ergonomic. The design intent for the furniture layout gives the space adaptability and flexibility to accommodate change over time.

The combination of interior finishes has been selected for durability and attractiveness with minimal required maintenance. Colors, finishes and accessories have been selected to contribute to the health and sense of well-being of the building users and to create an identity and character for the building, while also addressing considerations for durability and life-cycle costs.

Furniture was provided for its functionality, ergonomics, durability and aesthetic features. Consideration was given to the chairs by selecting seating for the expected duration of occupancy by one person. Seating that will require at least eight hours occupancy will have fully adjustable seating with multi-directional moving arms that will allow for comfortable seating and also allows full adjustability and movement.

Conference Room Chairs shall have hard castors for carpet flooring. All other chairs shall be provided with soft castors or glides for vinyl tile and sealed concrete flooring.

The goal is to follow sustainable design and construction techniques on this project.

We recognize the commitment of establishing good sustainable goals early in the stages of programming and design and then carrying these goals forward through the means and methods of construction. The goal is to provide a well-designed environmentally friendly and user friendly environment. Through the selection of appropriate interior material and construction practice these goals can be achieved.

Environmental responsibility is one of our top goals.
