Architectural Design & Engineering
Architecture is the art and science of designing a physical structure, with emphasis on aesthetics, layout, functionality, contextualization, etc. Architectural Engineering takes the Architectural Design process a step further by integrating the conceptual architectural design with the engineering principles that will produce a structure that is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also safe, durable, sustainable, and efficient.
Alta can provide Architectural Design and Architectural Engineering services for any new construction project, addition, renovation or retrofit, including, but not limited to custom homes; roof raises; custom kitchens; additional living spaces; attic conversions; outdoor living spaces; warehouse retrofit projects; garage additions; and general architectural and structural remodeling.
We consider ourselves to be “generalists” with regards to architectural style. We develop our designs based on the preferences of the customer - to reflect their lifestyle and personality. However, all of our designs place great importance on the hierarchy of elements within the design plan, as they relate to function, form, view, prevailing breezes, and natural light.
By providing both Architectural Design and Architectural Engineering services, as well as the services associated with the other engineering disciplines listed on our Engineering Services page, Alta is uniquely qualified to provide for you a design package that seamlessly integrates all aspects of design and engineering, without the hassle of coordinating between two or more design and engineering firms.
