'partnering' relationship with our project team - the client, associated review agencies, and subconsultants. Regular meetings provide a continuum to receive information, clarify input, inform staff of progress and direction, generate information, and allow the City the opportunity to review and comment on concepts and design formulation. Creative problem solving evolves from maintaining communication, building consensus, and identifying issues before they become problems. We encourage interactive participation of involved parties to allow for appropriate orientation and awareness of project site potential and constraints, obtaining concurrence on schedules, team effort conflict resolution, adaptability, flexibility, responsiveness, and looking at problems as opportunities. NUVIS' philosophy includes not only an aesthetic but a pragmatic look at materials selected, balanced by their cost. This procedure for developing cost effective plans is integral throughout the design process. Statements of probable construction costs are prepared on a regular basis to monitor the effect on the budget. We are proponents of sustainable design - meeting current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. We strive for the best solution, based on technical information and incorporating environmentally sensitive construction methods. We are also proponents of universal design - where decisions are based on actual user characteristics with consideration given to all types of physical locomotion limitations, degrees of sensory awareness, and level of emotional and intellectual functions. NUVIS approaches the design process as an occasion to achieve the highest level of aesthetics without compromising fundamental engineering criteria. Construction documents should minimize contractor deviation or interpretation. Facility design should be functional, easy to maintain, contemporary in the type of elements selected, impart a sense of place and safety, and be pleasing to the eye.
