Collaborate Architecture

Collaborate Architecture, LLC is a full-service design firm that focuses on creating unique and functional spaces. Since our founding in 2013, we have had the privilege of working on projects of varying sizes and scopes. Our team is passionate about utilizing digital technologies in the design process to create efficiencies in all stages of a project. We strive to challenge the status quo by blending local styles with modern trends, functional needs with spatial solutions, and budget limitations with creative material sourcing. At Collaborate Architecture, we believe that the integration of emerging building technologies is crucial in achieving our clients' goals. We are interested in working with you to find out how advanced products and processes can be used to meet your needs.

Our Process

Our process encourages clients to have a higher level of participation in the design of their new space. We provide computer animations and virtual walkthroughs very early in the conceptual stages of the project, allowing you to experience the space as if it were real life. This approach is not only more efficient than traditional methods, but it also lowers the overall project cost. We believe that collaboration is key to creating a successful design. Our process thoroughly engages and values the opinions of not just each client, but of contractors, consultants, and other designers as well. We welcome input from industrial designers, material experts, real estate professionals, and a variety of industries that can offer fresh perspectives to each design problem.

Services Offered

At Collaborate Architecture, we offer a variety of services designed to meet your needs. Our services include:

• Virtual Walkthroughs: Experience your design before it's built with our virtual walkthroughs. This allows you to make confident decisions throughout the development process.
• Integrated Collaboration: Our process thoroughly engages and values the opinions of not just each client, but of contractors, consultants, and other designers. We encourage input from industrial designers, material experts, real estate professionals, and a variety of industries.
• Unique Solutions: We provide details tailored to your lifestyle. We believe that there are more options today than ever before for clients to receive spaces designed exactly as they want. New technologies, advances in material science, and workplace efficiencies all contribute to a greater level of control that extends into reductions of project cost.

Why Us?

Our team is located in NE Tennessee and is made up of emerging designers with a focus on uniting modern design and technologies with traditional elements and unique, project-specific functions. Our work explores spatial design on a variety of scales, from interior details to multi-tenant offices. Whether you are looking for a trade show booth or your next beachside cottage, we are eager to investigate your design needs. We believe in offering both % of project cost pricing as well as hourly pricing to accommodate a variety of budget needs. With the option of hourly pricing, a client pays only for the design time needed, incentivizing everyone involved to focus purely on customer needs and not project cost.
