Statement of Intent Benjamin hopes to be involved in an architecture/urban design firm that addresses on the front end the integration of urban, landscape, environmental, programmatic and structural issues that are associated with architectural solutions. Using Integrated design processes, a studio that participates with this design methodology reduces production time and increases design time. Using combinatory design processes generate multifaceted architectural solutions. Ben wants to be involved in the communication and execution of drawings that are needed to produce a construction document set. Only having participated in the schematic design phase, Ben is excited to work with a team and learn how further stages of a projects development are accomplished.
