Commercial interior design of salt water fish stores is not headline news. And, specifically, this salt water fish stores commercial interior design is not so important as the medium - a simple plan - and the message - we got this client on his way quickly.
When we started together, all we knew was that the client had a simple plan of commercial interior design to layout salt water fish stores. He'd been bumped around by some commercial interior designers and an architect or two. He needed an architectural floor plan (to-scale as originally plotted on ARCH C sheets, annotated) [notably, not necessarily to be done by an architect] and he had to label it "Equipment Schedule", in order to get a DOA agent assigned to his permit approval process. He came to us via our website. (While neither of us knew exactly what an Equipment Schedule should look like, we realized in searching the web and asking around that it's a term of art not trade, and then having been told point-blank that a DOA Equipment Schedule was whatever the DOA officer said it was and he wasn't saying, we winged it.)
Before The Architect developed our client's pencil sketch into these drawings that got him where he's going now . . . past a road-block hassle and soon to be open for business. It took more than one drawing to do the trick, because, as is characteristic of small business planning in leasehold situations, the small businessman is shopping for space and can come upon more than a single, suitable candidate in sequence or at a time. We did two layouts.
Key to working commercial interior design is that once a basic understanding and tested agreement develop between Before The Architect and the client as to what's physically involved and its rationale, moving from one space to another both of which are more or less similarly defined and generally rectilinear becomes a matter of adaptation and not discovery. You'll see when looking at these two layouts that, while really quite different spaces are engaged, configuration of spaces is remarkably similar.
Interesting to us is that however clearly a small business owner has already defined a floor plan, one thing is for sure - it will get further developed as we work together, virtually on the fly. The commercial interior design exercise always exposes the designers to new realities and opportunities.
Before The Architect loves working with commercial and industrial clients. They're highly motivated to achieve, deliciously objective, and arrive with a wealth of forethought. Additionally, they soon come to realize that the quickest, most competent means to get from here to where they're headed is through Before The Architect.
