Arts organizations undertaking facilities projects of any scale should have an awareness of how design and construction processes typically proceed.  Even small additions usually require the services of an architect, and will progress through the typical design and construction phases, though they may be compressed depending on the project’s scale.

Before beginning, it’s important to:

• Know the phases of design and understand when critical decisions need to be made
• Hire a strong design team and be an informed client
• Select a project delivery method that’s appropriate for your project
