The construction dilemma: who to hire first?
Many clients begin their projects with crucial questions. Therefore, deciding who to hire first is the initial step towards a successful project. Furthermore, this choice directly impacts your budget and the final deadline.
The importance of architecture in the beginning
The architect is the professional responsible for conceiving the concept. In this way, they transform your dreams into a functional project. Therefore, you should start with the architecture to ensure that the design meets your expectations. For example, when designing a residence near the iconic Vila Germânica in Blumenau, the architect considers the local aesthetics and urban occupancy regulations.
The vital role of engineering
However, engineering is no less important. As soon as the architectural design is finalized, the engineer comes into play. Consequently, they calculate the structures necessary to support what has been designed. Therefore, the integration between both areas prevents execution errors. Furthermore, the engineer ensures that the construction follows the [standards/plans/etc.]. NBR 12722, which establishes the technical specifications for contracting projects and services.
Avoiding losses through integrated planning.
Often, hiring individual professionals leads to rework. Consequently, unnecessary costs arise during execution. On the other hand, WGB Arquitetura e Engenharia offers complete solutions. In this way, we take care of all stages, from the foundation to the final finishing. Furthermore, we provide rigorous technical monitoring on the construction site.
Conclusion: order matters, but unity is better.
In short, starting with the architect is the traditional approach. However, ideally, you should have a multidisciplinary team from day one. Therefore, by avoiding fragmented decisions, you save time and money. Furthermore, we guarantee the structural safety and aesthetic beauty of your property.
