INTRODUCTION

We are pleased that you have opened our web-brochure of information. Our interest is that you can obtain an overview and general understanding of the projects that we do at FORM Architectural, Inc. We have included a selected list of projects and photos that will describe a cross section of the work that we have done in the past.

Our design for each client, is that we can creatively bring to your project, using our architectural design expertise, a developed design that exceeds your requirements. We have a variety of design solutions that we have completed for other clients with different design requirements. We will be pleased to expand on the client needs and how we were able to meet their design program. Each client is unique, and their individual project is also unique. We approach each client from the perspective of their needs first. Second are their project restraints as a contrast to the client’s parameters of the project. Third our concern is the coordinated budget as an “implementation restriction” - important if the design is to be constructed, or not important if “money is not a concern”.

Our background as an Architect, General Contractor, and most of the time “Engineer of record”, give us the ability to analyze the overall scope of work and synthesize the design requirements with the finished project.

We look forward to working closely with you to develop an exciting design solution for your project and hope you find the information within this web-brochure interesting and informative.

Sincerely,
Michael Silva, MA AIA NCARB
Architect & General Contractor
