LEVIA
LEVIA’s new headquarters and manufacturing facility was designed within a new steel structure, and emphasis was placed on optimizing flow. With ample business-spaces alongside clean manufacturing areas, LEVIA is primed for success as their team creates innovative cannabis-infused beverages for thirsty patients and enthusiasts.
In this facility, state-of-the-art technology carefully extracts cannabis terpenes, precisely distills tinctures, and cans products efficiently. A collaborative design-approach allowed for an intentional synthesis between the architectural design and LEVIA’s production method.

-
This foundational phase runs in parallel across multiple teams. Due Diligence involves site and regulatory research by the architect and customer consultants, while Programming defines the project’s goals and operational needs. The result is a clear understanding of site constraints and a preliminary layout that aligns with your business model.
-
Schematic Design translates the program into initial architectural concepts. We collaborate with engineers and consultants to develop layout options, evaluate code compliance, and prepare documents for early pricing and permit applications.
-
In this phase, the design is refined in greater detail. Material selections, fixture schedules, and engineering systems are coordinated. The focus is on integrating all disciplines to ensure constructability and cost accuracy.
-
Construction Documents finalize all design decisions into detailed drawings and specifications ready for bidding, permitting, and construction. Final pricing packages are produced, and documents are submitted for approvals.
-
During construction, the architect provides support to ensure the project is built per design. This includes responding to contractor questions, reviewing submittals, observing progress, and resolving issues in real-time.
