Religious Facilities and Community Redevelopment projects.
|
| |
| Philosophy |
 |
|
M3DG has a broad base approach to architecture that
stretches the envelope. M3DG feels that design can be
a valuable tool to liberating the potential within people
and communities. Properly executed design can impact
and enrich the social, political and economic composition
of the surrounding space.
|
| |
| Design Approach |
 |
|
M3DG utilizes a collaborative approach to the design
of buildings and communities. This collaborative approach
incorporates input from the various stakeholders. Stakeholders
may include user (Occupancy) groups, residences, community
leaders, community organization, political entities,
constituencies from the business community, etc. This
inclusive process during the Planning, Programming and
Design Phases has helped M3DG to design facilities that
reflect a vision that is inclusive; alternately, resulting
in structures that fit well in the environment for which
they are designed.
M3DG has a particular sensitivity to urban environments,
which are in a state of transition and require design
solutions intended to stimulate residents' hopes and
aspirations, encourage economic development and strengthen
the physical fabric of the community. We feel that design
can bring light, life, color and activity to a community.
M3DG believes that architecture is more that a four
dimension edifice that only addresses proportional relationships.
M3DG feels that design encompasses an appreciation for
height, width, depth, sound, light, smell, texture and
movement.
