DESIGN

Designing a construction project from scratch is a complex task, which is why our involvement from the very beginning is crucial. By staying engaged from the outset, we ensure meticulous collaboration with design teams to set our projects up for success.

Ott Development attends all design meetings with architects, engineers, and civil and MEP designers. We recommend meetings and drawing reviews at kickoff, 50%, and 95% completion stages. Throughout this process, we “value engineer” the design, offering suggestions on cost, materials, and constructability.

Design Lets Get Started

PRE-DEVELOPMENT

Ott Development oversees the design concept, elevations, floor plan, and civil plan while maintaining constant communication with our teams.

Once the initial design concept, elevations, floor plan, and civil plan are approved, we propose meeting with the local authorities (city, township, or village) to ensure they are on board with the project direction.
