DESIGN APPROACH: At Plethovalent Architecture, we believe in the importance of public space in society and the necessity of designing in context of the greater fabric of our sites and surroundings. This includes the understanding, study and respect of historic conditions and the principles of historic preservation, as well as the need to integrate modern needs and sustainable ideals. Our clients’ needs and preferences are considered as part of the context in which we design. The integration of barrier free access in all aspects of the design is equally important as historic and contextual considerations. Good design must be responsive to the users and public by having an inherent ‘sense’. As well, the careful consideration of the functioning of the building and efficiency of space allows us to better allocate budgets and great design ideas.
