WBRC designs great buildings that enhance the experiences of their occupants, perform efficiently, respect their surroundings, and reflect community values through thoughtful and cooperative conversation with clients and communities.
WBRC is proud of its reputation for unfailing attention to client priorities and expectations, a philosophy that allows even modest projects to benefit from the resources of a premier architectural firm.
Other Services Include Existing Facilities Surveys: A comprehensive WBRC review of existing facilities and their systems provides clients with a solid foundation for determining the extent of needed renovations, or even whether to replace an existing building. Using a CSI-approved format, WBRC will reliably compare renovation costs to new-construction costs for any facility, allowing clients to make the best-possible decision for all stakeholders. WBRC surveys have facilitated decision-making for clients throughout the region, saving them significant costs over time regardless of whether they ultimately chose to renovate or build new.

Programming: Programming the requirements of a proposed building is the architect's first and most important task, and usually the the architect's initial in-depth collaboration with the client as well. Programming ensures sound decision-making throughout all phases of the project, and minimizes costly redesign efforts during construction. WBRC uses a five-step programming process to yield the project's most appropriate scope and quality; these two factors, along with site and construction schedule, are the principal factors in establishing the cost of any project.
Master Planning: WBRC has been instrumental for many years in developing master plans for downtown districts, waterfronts, and campuses. WBRC analyzes existing and potential development capacities, identifies and upgrades pedestrian and vehicular traffic patterns, and develops overall master plans for continued implementation. WBRC has prepared plans for several college and university campuses as well as public and private development sectors. WBRC is routinely chosen to implement the actual build-out of the planning effort, as well; several downtown improvement projects are in place today, fully implemented and functioning well as designed.
Rendering & Modeling: For many WBRC clients, the ability to create stakeholder excitement during project planning and development with detailed rendering and modeling is one of WBRC's key services. Models and renderings— from simple perspective drawings to elaborate computer-generated renderings — are especially valuable for committee and public presentations, providing clarity of intent and purpose for viewers, and generating enthusiasm.
