We are licensed in NY, NJ, CT, MA, and ME. If your project is taking place in a different state, we can work with you to deliver the project in that state.

We suggest that our clients contact their contractors to find the most accurate pricing. However, an industry-accepted general rule of thumb is to estimate $200 - $500 per square foot, though this is dependent on the quality of materials and construction.

It’s easy! First, feel free to schedule a consultation for us to get to know each other and better understand your project needs.

Second, we’ll typically ask for some baseline information about the project location and any special conditions.

From there, we’ll begin our brief discovery process to understand the scope of work and services.

And finally, we’ll put together a proposal. Once agreed upon, we’ll eagerly get started!

We work on every project typology within the industry, including cultivation facilities, research laboratories, manufacturing facilities, and retail dispensaries. There is such a broad spectrum of cannabis spaces and we’re eager to work with you to discover even more.

Many people describe the role of an architect as a “conductor” as our job is to facilitate and coordinate your project. In addition, we’ll help design the layout and circulation flow of your space, select materials and finishes, and coordinate between structural and mechanical engineers. We are your advocates and your teammates in ensuring the success of the project, and the realization of your vision.

Based on our project average we have found about 60% of your facility will be dedicated to the cultivation process. Don’t forget you need processing space, storage and even administrative spaces to help support the facility.

It is case-by-case. For example, in New Jersey, you must have an attorney represent you at the town hearing. As for a civil engineer, it is often recommended that you hire a local engineer to help navigate the city planning review board and to help with all site-related design issues, such as waste removal, utility connections, parking, etc.

Yes, we keep up-to-date with all local codes and ordinances.

We hear this question a lot. Many clients will seek out a rendering before a design is even developed. This is akin to “putting the cart before the horse.” A rendering is a visualization tool that is used to help express the aesthetic of a space to help inform the design, or to be used in marketing. It typically is created following months of architectural design.

A concept rendering created before the architectural design is completed, should only be considered as a conceptual tool that can help inform the architectural design.

In other words, a contractor cannot build from a rendering, they need a fully developed construction drawing that has been filed for permit with the local municipalities.
