PROGRAMMING is the first stage in the
facilities design process.
University Architects works closely with the
users to help determine immediate and pro-
jected spatial needs within a facility. The
outcome is typically a written document cit-
ing statement of need and prioritization of
space. Site characteristics are also docu-
mented.
SCHEMATIC DESIGN (or Conceptual Design)
is the second stage in the facilities design
process.
After program verification, program ele-
ments are arranged in several schemes or
options addressing adjacency of spaces, cir-
culation and building function. Aesthetic
and site planning concepts are also explored.
PRELIMINARY DESIGN (or Design Development)
is the third stage in the facilities design
