Building Engineering
Building design begins with the future user or owner. The client has a perceived need for a specific site and its projected cost in mind. We are experienced in receiving such preliminary thoughts and ideas and turning these visions into reality. Our cost-evaluation and cost-control specialists aim to achieve maximum quality at minimal expense, without compromising safety, style or quality. In addition to general knowledge of different building sciences, our offices and staff are equipped to collect all the data required on any construction project. This includes topography and boundary surveys, investigation of subsoil conditions for foundation design and water-exclusion, climate data and other local information
Architecture
At IGTIC, we seek a balance between art and technology, form and function, beauty and purpose, vision and result. IGTIC's architects and interior design professionals have helped shape the around us, fromĀ buildings, to educational, cultural, research and transportation facilities that enable our way of life and future.
Problem solvers by nature, we serve clients by listening to their concerns, understanding their goals, and sharing in their vision. We believe that capital investments in facilities should be aligned with measurable, sustainable business benefits, and our portfolio reflects a commitment to excellence and client satisfaction.

For each building type, our design process is based on energy efficient building systems, appropriate selection of materials and form to maximize environmental conditions and long term performance.

Renovation + Reuse
Our team architects and interior designers have been involved in renovating, preserving and adapting existing properties. Our projects have included designated historic landmarks, neglected buildings in our urban centers, buildings suffering from wear over time, and buildings requiring technology and code upgrades. For many clients, we have adapted existing properties to accommodate new use, effectively recycling an outdated building. IGTIC architects approach each renovation project with a spirit of discovery and a commitment to solutions that derive from the original character and intent of each building.
