A project is more than plans and facade
When people ask what an architecture project includes, they often think about layout drawings or external image. That is only one part.
A complete project integrates spatial strategy, structure, services, regulations, and construction detailing so the works can be built correctly.
Stages and deliverables that matter
Depending on the commission, work is structured through early studies, basic design, execution project, and site supervision. Each stage has specific technical decisions and documents.
Clear stage separation avoids ambiguity and clarifies what is approved, what is submitted, and what is built.
A well-developed project saves money on site
Most overruns appear when construction starts with an incomplete project. Open decisions are pushed into the most expensive phase.
At BAU, we treat project development as a technical and financial control system, not only as a presentation package.
