Silicon Labs had engaged Vantis to create 12 additional offices in their existing space. After the project hit a funding challenge, Vantis’ scope was expanded to include Design – Build services as a general contractor to control costs while protecting key design features.
The Vantis design team used DIRTT system for this buildout to provide cost certainty from the beginning. By using Virtual Reality to review the design with Silicon Labs, the team was able to isolate preferred design elements and preserve them during the design process.
By managing both design and construction, Vantis was able to create a closer relationship between design and pricing, thus keeping the project within budget from the start. The end result provided the client with their preferred design, using VR technology to aid quick decision making. This saved time and money that would have otherwise gone into multiple design iterations, redirecting it to the fit and finish of the space.
