Who will be my main point of contact?
Your main contact will depend on the stage and structure of the project. Archbuild establishes a clear communication pathway so clients understand who is responsible for design matters, approvals, construction coordination and site delivery.Key decisions and project updates are communicated through the appropriate Archbuild team member, with leadership involvement maintained throughout the project.
Is Mike Movaffaghi directly involved in Archbuild projects?
Mike remains involved in Archbuild’s projects, particularly in design direction, buildability, consultant coordination, major construction decisions and maintaining continuity between the architectural intent and completed work.The level of day-to-day involvement depends on the project stage, size and delivery structure.
Can Archbuild take over a project that has already started?
Potentially. Before accepting an existing project, Archbuild would need to review its current status, contracts, approvals, drawings, consultant documentation, completed work, outstanding issues and construction risks.Projects already under construction may require additional investigation before Archbuild can determine whether it is practical and appropriate to become involved.
Can Archbuild work with my existing architect, interior designer or consultants?
Yes. Archbuild can collaborate with external architects, interior designers, engineers, town planners, landscape architects and other consultants where roles and responsibilities are clearly established.Early coordination is important to reduce documentation gaps, conflicting information and construction delays.
