Experience design requires
whole-systems thinking.
You may be surprised to learn that a great deal of building design happens in silos. Engineers write reports then throw them "over the wall" to other team members who incorporate information, then throw that back "over the wall" to the next design team member with each discipline focused on its own separate part.
The challenge is that when concentrating on individual pieces, it is easy to lose sight of the big picture. Not only that, but innovation is most often sparked with interaction.
So we--like many revolutionaries in our industry--started asking the question: wouldn't it be better if design professionals worked in teams like most other creative professions do?The question transformed our process. Not only does Acoustic Dimensions bring together all of the disciplines for venues of shared experience--acoustics, audio, video, lighting, data/telecom, security and theatrical systems--we play a role on the design team that is deeply supportive and collaborative with your architect and engineers. This commitment to real-time interaction brings out the best ideas with the team looking at the project as a whole and how systems work together. The best part is that design decisions in a holistic process are creative, rather than reactive.
We look forward to bringing that collaborative energy to work on your project.
