A letter from the principal. 2
December 20, 2013 Mr. Justin Development Justin Development Company 190 Witherspoon Street Princeton, NJ 08542 Dear Mr. Development, Thank you for considering arQ’s services for your upcoming residential project on Witherspoon St. At arQ, we are excited to explore and exploit all of the inherent possibilities that the site provides. It is our goal to work closely with you throughout the entirety of the project in order to ensure maximum quality and maximum satisfaction. As per your request, and as a LEED certified firm, achieving LEED certification for this project will be a priority. As a modern housing project in an already established community, keeping the community involved in the project will be fundamental to the success of your project. We believe that this project will be theirs as much as it will be ours and it will be our goal to have the community actively participate throughout the multiple stages of the project. This, coupled with our 15-year experience within the Princeton community, will ensure your project obtains Zoning Board and, most importantly, community approval. As you may already know, arQ is a small firm based in Princeton, NJ whose designs always aim for what we call outstanding balance—architecture that co-exists with its social and historical context while still creating state-of-the-art and vanguard architecture. arQ pushes the limits. arQ is ambitious, yet pragmatic. At arQ we also believe in a concept we deem the explore/exploit process. A project’s potential comes from the exploration of its inherent qualities—visible and invisible. Nonetheless, as a firm that is also renown for its sustainable architecture, arQ is able to continously deliver the highest quality LEED certified projects. Attached you will find a complete description of our services, costs, and a detailed project timeline, including information regarding each step of the project. Mr. Development, arQ would like to once again thank you for your interest. There is no doubt that together we will take your vision to the next level. If you have any doubts regarding any of the enclosed information, do not hesitate to contact me at 609-608-2492. We look forward to working closely with you. Sincerely,
Jose Escamilla, AIA Principal

About arQ arQ is a multi-award winning architecture firm based in Princeton, Nj. Founded by Jose Escamilla in 1997, arQ has quickly risen to the top in the town of Princeton and its surrounding areas. Having also completed projects in New York, California, and even Canada and Mexico, arQ is continuously growing and expanding its market. arQ is renown for its emphasis on residential architecture. An expert in both private residences as well as large appartment complexes--and everything in between--arQ was described by Architectural Digest as “a game changer...arQ’s approach at residential architecture is what architecture needed for the longest time.” It has been the recipient to numerous awards, among them the AIA NJ Merit Award for the LEED Platinum Graham Duplex in Mercer County, the Residential Architect Design “Project of the Year” for the Lemperle Residence in La Jolla, California, and many more. Having been located in Princeton for 15 years and having successfully carried out multiple projects in its relatively short life has provide arQ with the experience to continue succeeding in years to come. arQ has made homes for its community but has also made the community its home. This symbiotic relationship is perhaps one of the main reasons why arQ has proliferated in the past years. This unrivaled understanding of the context in which it practices continues to drive the firm, and its clients, forward.
Jose Escamilla, AIA | LEED AP Principal Jose Escamilla founded arQ in 1997 and has only seen his practice grow ever since. Combining his theory-emphasized and multi-disciplinary undergraduate education at Princeton’s School of Architecture with his rigorous design-centered education at the post-graduate level at Harvard’s GSD, Escamilla’s vision is unrivaled in the realm of residential architecture. Yet, it is his experience in the real world across the years what has solidified his education and consolidated his architectural vision. Escamilla’s architecture bridges the gap between what we know as past, present, and future architecture. He incorporates refined aesthetic elements in his designs, allowing architecture to be fully appreciated even to the least untrained eye. Furthermore, his theoretical background has allowed him to create pieces that blur the boundary between practice and art in architecture. Finally, understanding that we live in a rapidly-changing world, Escamilla’s designs incorporate sustainability without compromising design or program.

CONTEXT
We fully explore the context of a project before taking any steps in order to find the best way to approach it. It is also through the thorough exploration of a project’s context that we are able to maximize quality and minimize expenses, making you and those who will inhabit our buildings more satisfied. Our team of LEED certified architects, as well as the rest of our experienced staff, is always working together to ensure that every single project we touch has en everlasting mark in our clients and the community, but not on the earth. arQ keeps more than the environment in mind: arQ is committed to equally valuing our client and the community’s input. We believe that the key to successful design lies in the balance among these three, for what distinguishes an outstanding design from just a good one is the synthesis of the overarching forces that a project’s context brings with itself along with the reflection of client and community input in the design. .

Q
An architectural Vision I remember when I was young, I wanted to be an architect because I could draw and do math. I was foolish, however, and naive. I did not yet know the multiple forces that governed architecture. “What forces?� you may ask. It seems as if architecture is all about aesthetically pleasing buildings that stand. Yet, this is only what lies on the surface... Behind these pretty buildings lie a conglomeration of invisible forces. During my undergrad education at Princeton University, I began learning about countless of conversations in the realm of architecture. The history of architecture was rich, yet complicated, and extended past aesthetic developments across the years. In fact, one could say that architecture is an ever-evolving practice whose aesthetic develops as an adaptation and response to its current political, economic, and societal demands. What might have seemed as a selfish discipline, seemingly restraining the conversation of architecture within the field, was after all not so selfish at all. Architecture belongs to the people. Yes, architecture is an art, but it is also a profession. Throughout the years I have learned that my role as an architect extends past that of a designer. Yes, architecture is about creating unique experiences through unique spaces. A major part of creating such experience does come from the design aspect. Yet, the dozens of invisible forces out there . Innumerable forces influence and limit a project. Physics. Culture. Time. Budget.
Context. Architecture is about understanding the context in which we build and exploiting it to create breathtaking spaces and experiences. Architecture is looking at a puzzle’s pieces and knowing that there must be another way--a better way--to arrange them...and finding it. Every project is its own puzzle, with different puzzle pieces--with different arrangements. Architecture is a profession, but it is also an art.

Urban Development + Witherspoon St. Witherspoon St. holds a dear place in my heart, as it does for all of the people who have lived there throughout the years. As an undergrad at Princeton University, countless times I walked down Witherspoon. Morning coffee. An afternoon run. Evening dinner with friends... The atmosphere on Witherspoon St. is diverse and multi-cultural. Not only is it diverse within itself but, due to its adjacency to Nassau St., it is the connection between the Princeton community and Princeton University, thus manifesting itself as a bridge between campus life and the rest of the town. New housing brings with itself a new atmosphere. Yet, at arQ we strive to find a balance between the already existing atmosphere a project positions itself in and the one it brings. We strive to find a balance that will move the community’s architecture and culture forward progressively. We don’t replace community and culture. We advance it. arQ takes issues of program, design, and sustainability past the building envelope. Fundamentals: architecture is not only for those that inhabit it but also for those that surround it. The social influences on a project are key to its ultimate success and place in its community. Harmony and progression, not stagnation. Often do we see a community’s architecture fail to evolve as a result of dissatisfied neighbors or an architecture that is excessively vanguard. And Witherspoon is no exception. At arQ, however, we create architecture that bridges past, present, and future. We create architecture that stays true to its site’s roots and culture. And this is why we believe that the community’s input is just as valuable. Yet, how do we do this? The site lies amidst a very diverse community with a rich cultural and architectural history. Yet, as demonstrated by a new organization called Sustainable Princeton, who is currently working on multiple ways to make Princeton a greener community, there is a strong desire to move forward. After all, arQ and Justin Development Company’s vision is shared by their own community as well. Development. That is our goal.

Prelim Conceptual Design Preliminary sqft per room
Staying true to the minimalist aspect of a 1 bedroom micro-apartment, we experimented with the bare essentials. Like true minimalism, however, we will discuss the possibility of further reducing the content of the plan. Throughout the initial stages, including the pre-design phase and the earlier part of the schematic design phase, we will be working with adjacency bubble diagrams like the ones shown below to determine possible programmatic arrangements. Justin Development Company will have the opportunity to decide whether a single arrangement for all complexes or diverse arrangements throughout the site will work the best. Later on, we can start determining the overall form of the apartments based on these diagrams

As we progress further, we will start transforming the bubble diagrams into potential arrangement, and will start determining possible program organization.
Potential Multi-apartment Arrangement 1st floor: 2nd floor:
12 units 10 units
Total:
22 units
Working with our 453 ft unit, arQ suggests considering multi-story construction to increase size. Although the following prelimary scheme shows a potential arrangement for two stories, the Princeton Borough code allows for three story constructions in this zoning case.
Plan Superimposition
Given that the original area of existing buildings lies at around 4335’ (see earlier diagrams), we can expect to construct between 10-13 units depending on size and arrangement variations. As a preliminary sketch, arQ would like to continue to remind you that the possibilities are endless and should not be limited to the ones presented on these pages. These diagrams are merely meant to illustrate what certain steps of the preliminary design phase and early schematic phase might look like.

Each of these 6 phases will be broken down in detail in the following pages.
30
Predesign Project Planning (5%) During this initial phase we will establish a hierarchy of needs and objectives for the project. It will also an opportunity for us to clarify any initial doubts you might have regarding how we will approach the project. In addition, it is an opportunity for us to explain to you and break down some of the costs and interests you will come across throughout the project. We will go over both “hard” and “soft” costs, which we will further explain during our first meeting. It is imperative that you fully understand what each cost is and where it comes from. At this point, we will conduct 2-3 visits to the site with the goal of compiling all site data, including but not limited to: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
r Topographic and property information Roads and possible improvements Utilities Landscape features Zoning and legal setbacks
We would like an appropriate Justin Development Company representative to be present for at least one of them if possible. In addition, we suggest visiting comparable sites and projects together. We can discuss this further during out initial meeting. During this time, we would also like to set up a preliminary project schedule with some key initial milestones. In addition, I would like to set up a bi-monthly meeting schedule in order to make sure the project is running smoothly. During our initial meeting we will: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
Establish the project directory Review all project procedures Review the project schedule Set a regular meeting schedule Review other project parameters to-date, including budget Review other construction contract options (if deemed necessary) Review original concept diagrams Prepare a space program
31
Finally, as the last points state, this is an opportunity to start talking about design ideas—concepts that will start taking shape in the Schematic Design phase. It is an opportunity for us to learn more about your preferences and start converting abstract and general ideas into more concrete concepts.
Schematic Design (10%) The goal of the schematic design phase is to review the project’s program with you. During this stage, we will work closely in order to ensure your vision is successfully manifested in the final product. We will also start discussing what the best way to build your project will be in terms of budget. We will provide you with the following: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11.
Blocking + stacking options diagrams Scaled drawings illustrating relationships among components Site plan 1/16� floor plans Diagrammatic sections Small scale massing elevations Physical study models General material finish schedule, interior + exterior Code review Up-to-date budget check Schedule check
At this point, we will begin the process of acquiring site approval from the Borough of Princeton. We will also begin a series of multiple neighborhood meetings to receive input from the community as well as inform them about the project. From our experience, a series of meetings like these makes the community feel involved and part of the project, which facilitates future approvals in front of the Zoning Board and other committees. After reviewing all schematics with you, we will submit them to the construction manager in order to further advance the project. With his, and your, input, we will continue determining what works best and whether it is realistically affordable or not.
32
Finally, we would like to remind you that communication is essential during this phase, as with all others. Given the project will be at an early stage, it is likely that there will be doubts, which we will willingly answer when appropriate. It is essential that you, the owner, arQ, and the construction manager stay constantly in touch at this stage in order to ensure the project is on the right track at every stage.
Design Development (20%) During this phase, we will begin emphasizing the design aspect of your project. Our first meeting of this phase will focus on determining what matters the most to you from both an operational and design standpoint. We will divide this phase into three stages -Initial phase: Before we begin any formal drawings, we will focus on reviewing specific spaces and their functions. -Mid-phase: At this point, we would like to review the drawings up to-date with an emphasis on the cabinetwork of the apartments -End phase: Finally, we would like to review all of the drawings with you prior to beginning and detail work and proceeding to the construction drawings phase. We will be working closely with various consultants as the final size and cost of the project will start to take shape. As always, arQ will be constantly reviewing our consultants’ work for coordination and consistency with the established design parameters. The emphasis of the drawings at this point will be to further illustrate the full scope of the project, indicating the various relationships among individual rooms as well as interior and outer spaces, including relationships to the rest of the neighborhood.

We also suggest that your appointed civil engineer reviews the design with the following authorities: Sewerage authority Municipal engineer As the project starts coming to life, we will continue to review the construction cost budget and advise you on these costs as we seem fit. Finally, as always we will take advantage of every cost-saving opportunity we come across, always prioritizing and never compromising quality, and inform you accordingly. We would also like to work closely with the contractor. We believe that the design development stage is essential to beating the budget and the schedule later on. Working closely with him and fully understanding the scope of the project will result in a more efficient and smooth construction.
34
Construction Documents (40%) As per your request, we will begin with construction documents upon zoning board approval. The drawings, including all mechanical services, and specifications will be finalized and ready to be carried out for construction during this phase. Throughout this period, we will continue to work closely with you regarding any previous preliminary costs. In addition, we will work together in the preparation of bidding information. arQ will establish bi-monthly meetings with our design team as well as the project consultants. In addition to these bi-monthly meetings, arQ will arrange 5 meetings with Justin Development Company to review the construction documents in-depth and address any issues that may come up. The 5 meetings will be spread out at the following intervals 30% of document completion 50% of document completion 75% of document completion 90% of document completion 100% of document completion Note: the 75% completion stage, namely the “deemed complete” stage, shall form the basis for the project’s Guaranteed Maximum Price, or GMP.

Computer cabling b. AV work c. Stereo wiring Liquidated damages + bonus program Bonding requirements Insurance requirements
arQ will be in charge of distributing a complete bid form to all the bidders with the above information.
37
Construction, Fit-up, and Occupancy (20%) arQ will setup a pre-construction meeting with Justin Development Company at which we will set actions and deadlines to ensure the project runs smoothly through construction. At this meeting, we will setup a subsequent meeting schedule on at least a monthly basis at dates that Justin Development Company finds most convenient. The pre-construction meeting agenda includes: 1. 2.
An owner issued notice to proceed for the contractor Explanation of chain-of-command with included routing and scheduling of a. Shop drawings b. Catalogs c. Samples d. Project reports e. Test reports f. Maintenance instructions
arQ will continue to attend regular project meetings and will tour the site at necessary intervals, preparing detailed field reports. During this phase, arQ will also be constantly reviewing and responding to 1. 2. 3. 4.
Payment applications Requests for Information (RFIs) Change Orders Phone calls / emails
arQ will be visiting the construction at appropriate intervals for project evaluation, ensuring the construction is complying with the provided construction documents. After each visit, we will inform you of the current state of the project via phone call, email, or both. If we come across any defects or deficiencies, we will notify you immediately. Throughout construction, arQ will offer press release preparation services regarding building progress if required.
38
Towards the end of the construction phase, arQ will confirm that final arrangements have been made to procure furnishings, graphics, data and communication, and miscellaneous equipment so that delivery and installation can be scheduled and coordinated with construction operations, move-in, and occupancy. At this point we will also: 1. 2. 3. 4.
Confirm Justin Development Company has received guarantees and warranties and note the service conditions and the duration of the inspection and maintenance services required by the contractor. Confirm contractor obtains a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TCO) and a final Certificate of Occupancy (COO) Arrange for inspection and maintenance services that may not be required by the contractor, including but not limited to: a. Elevators b. Fire alarm systems Monitor the construction manager’s final inspection reports
We will verify that all conditions of the contract have been met, including a check for liens and released liens. Final payments will be issued once these, and a Certificate of Occupancy, have been verified. We would also like to discuss with you the possibility of putting one of our own architects fulltime on site in order to answer any questions that may come up regarding construction documents. We have found that this minimizes RFI’s (Request For Information orders) as well as change orders, further saving Justin Development Company time and money. Our experience with this setup over the years has saved clients an average of 2-3% of the total cost as well as 5% of the total time, both resulting from time saved from minimal delays and lack of additional hours worked. At arQ, we offer assistance in the planning of close-out events, including ground-breaking, topping out, and dedication ceremonies. Should you require those services, arQ would be more than glad to aid you with planning, beginning at least 6 months prior to the completion of construction. We will also gladly arrange tours for users once the project reaches completion. Finally, at the 11th month of occupancy, arQ will tour the building with Justin Development Company to identify any items requiring repair or replacement before the end of the 1 year contractor’s warranty expiration.
Disclaimer: arQ is not responsible for any defects or deficiencies that result from the contractor’s failure to perform in accordance with construction documents.
39
Achieving LEED arQ’s team of LEED certified architects is experienced in achieving LEED certification in its designs. Over the years, over 70% of our projects have achieved LEED certification. 50% of those projects have received SILVER certification 30% of those projects have received GOLD certification 20% of those projects have received PLATINUM certification In order to achieve LEED certification*, arQ will seek to fulfill the following requirements: Innovation and Design Process (ID) Location and Linkages (LL) Sustainable Sites (SS) Water Efficiency (WE) Energy and Atmosphere (EA) Materials and Resources (MR) Indoor Environmental Quality (EQ) Awareness and Education (AE) We will briefly break down what each one of these categories entails and how we plan on incorporating them into the design in our first meeting.

Marketing As you requested, arQ will be pleased to provide you with all you need for the successful marketing of your project at a reimbursable cost to be detailed later on. At the end of the Schematic Design phase, arQ would like to hold two brief meetings with Justin Development company in order to discuss more in-depth the way in which we will approach the project’s marketing. During the first meeting, arQ will have available a small selection of preliminary logos designed to accurately represent the project. We will narrow it down to 2 and expand on them based on our discussion that day. During our second meeting, to be held 2 weeks after the first one, we will continue to build upon what was discussed during the first meeting and will have available preliminary marketing materials and more detailed logos. As the physical design of the project starts to take shape, our team of graphic designers and video producers will be in charge of creating a short 8-10 minute video designed to engage the community and potential bidders from the beginning. The video will contain key information detailing the project and will be produced with the latest software, ensuring the highest quality of visual work. Finally, we will assign one of our project architects to become the leader of this marketing campaign. He will be in charge of presentations, including that of the video, and holding Q&A sessions as well. As the leader of the marketing office of the project, he will continue to work closely with our team of graphic designers and Justin Development Company throughout the project. arQ will also provide all other visual material that is deemed necessary, including but not limited to: Flyers Posters Videos Brochures Other We will work together to ensure your project and all necessary information becomes available to those who need it and in the most visually effective way possible.

Mr. Development, Attached you will find a preliminary Gantt chart schedule of the project. Please keep in mind that this timeline is subject to change as the project develops. Also keep in mind that forces outside arQ’s jurisdiction might delay any scheduled interval / event. arQ will continuously be trying to beat the schedule, reducing the time any given scheduled activity might take. Yet, we will never compromise quality over time. In addition, please refer to the previous section if you need any clarification as to what any slot may mean. Also, please keep in mind that the bi-monthly meeting schedule was not included due to the nature of its regularity. As already mentioned, we will set this schedule within our first meetings. As always, do not hesitate to contact me with any questions.

The following fees have been calculated assuming the project includes the initial 20 units Justin Development Company set out to build. Please keep in mind that should the project expand, these fees will no longer apply. We will gladly recalculate them once we define the project’s specifics in later stages. As detailed in our earlier diagrams, arQ will use the 423 sqft unit as a basis for fee calculation. Working with the initial 20 units yields a total area of 8460 sqft 20 units x 423 sqft per unit = 8460 sqft total Based on a $189.84 construction cost per sqft, this will leave the total construction cost at $1,606,046.40 arQ’s will charge a 6.5% fee of $104,393.02, from which 30% will be taken to pay for consultants, resulting in a consultant fee of $31,317.90 and a net architect fee of $73,075.12.

We would like to once again remind you that the construction cost was calculated for a 20-unit project with a total square footage of 8460. Should Justin Development Company decide to incorporate more units into the project (via a 3rd story or a variation in arrangement) or increase the total square footage, arQ will recalculate the total project cost and arQ’s initial fee to reflect the changes. Any other changes that require an increase in budget or labor time will require arQ to adjust the numbers accordingly. Note: arQ will require Justin Development to pay a fee of $750 upon the signing of the contract. Please note that this fee will have already been accounted for for the final invoice upon completion of the project.
Additional Services arQ would like to remind Justin Development company of all available additional services. Should Justin Development company require any services additional to those detailed within our full scope of services, arQ will be glad to offer them at an appropriate fee to be discussed with Justin Development Company. Reimbursable costs will be made at the service’s original cost + an additional 8%. Examples of reimbursable costs include long-distance calls, plotting services, model materials, among others. We will inform you of any reimbursable costs as they arise throughout the project.
