An increasingly used term in architecture and construction is the Test Fit. But what is it, what does it consist of and why use it? Let us share with you some information about this friendly solution.<\/p>\n
In summary, the Test Fit is an analysis process that is used so that \u2014in a preliminary way\u2014 the use of a space can be visualized. In turn, this allows decisions to be made and a design to be much more aligned with the tastes and needs of the client, as well as the size of the place, proving that all the components fit within this space. It is done in conjunction with the designer and the client, resulting in a more efficient and much clearer design for a specific client.<\/p>\n
It is important to understand the space requirements of the client and, in the same way, to comprehend their daily operation so that the design is consistent with the operation of the company, which is exactly what is sought to be achieved through a Test Fit. It also helps to better use the resources of a remodeling, a gray space or a new office, it helps to use the budget in the most efficient way, anticipating all the details and requirements, already based and aligned with the operation of the company that will be in execution in that new space.<\/p>\n
In our experience with commercial projects, especially in the area of corporate offices, we have had the opportunity to experience how much value this process provides by helping us to clearly understand what is required by each of our clients and to avoid letting details slip that could only be seen when the site is already in operation. It also influences the schematic design phase as all parties test and examine the space plan.<\/p>\n
Making the decision to run a Test Fit process is always a good idea, it’s a simple and fast process that does a lot, giving you a clear idea of the functionality of your future workspace, without exorbitant costs.<\/p>\n
What do you need to start this process? Once the decision to carry it out is made, you only need:
\u2192 Empty architectural plan to use as a base;
\u2192 Essential requirements of the client in terms of spaces;
\u2192 Approximate footage per space (if this information is available);
\u2192 Company organization chart; and
\u2192 Contact with the person in the company who sees and understands the daily operations.<\/p>\n
In conclusion, once a Test Fit is done, those involved can see, react, and respond to the space plan prior to a final design and help guide all solutions for the full functionality of the future workspace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
