Provide us with the criteria for your designs. The best way to do this is to send us your Product Matrix document. This will enable us to curate a plan collection for your development project.

A charrette is an intensive planning session, typically near the project site, where developer, municipalities, citizens, designers and others collaborate on a vision for development. It provides a forum for ideas and offers the unique advantage of giving immediate feedback to the designers. More importantly, it allows everyone who participates to be a mutual author of the plan. Formal and informal meetings are held throughout the event and updates to the plan are presented daily.
Through brainstorming and design activity, many goals are accomplished during the charrette. First, everyone who has a stake in the project develops a vested interest in the ultimate vision. Second, the design team works together to produce a set of finished documents that address all aspects of design. Third, since the input of all the stakeholders is gathered at one event, it is possible to avoid the prolonged discussions that typically delay conventional planning projects. Finally, the finished result is produced more efficiently and cost-effectively because the process is collaborative.
