RBA Architects partners with commercial developers to deliver innovative, cost-effective design solutions that address site constraints, zoning hurdles, and evolving market demands. Our collaborative process and use of advanced tools like BIM and TestFit enable us to streamline development timelines and maximize project potential from concept to completion.


We understand the common frustrations:

 

  • Lack of Responsiveness from design teams

  • Inability to develop initial concepts efficiently

  • Insufficient Visualization Tools

  • Why are we behind schedule?


We’ve built our process to address all of these concerns—and more.

Immersive 3D Visualization with BIM and AI paired with deep industry expertise to quickly develop & present attractive and cost-effective design solutions.

The early stages of the commercial design process require careful navigation of numerous pitfalls, including municipal design guidelines, unique site constraints, and neighborhood interest groups, while establishing a cost-efficient building design.

 

RBA's extensive experience and design tools allow us to guide the development team through these challenges with a clear understanding of the long-term financial impacts of early design decisions.

Commitment to Timelines

We understand that your time is valuable. Our project management process is designed to ensure milestones are met and the schedule stays on track.

 

We communicate clearly and consistently to keep your project moving forward

RBA can help aid in the site selection process and initial site layouts using our TestFit App

TestFit software enables architects to quickly assess site feasibility by producing real-time, data-informed building layouts that consider zoning, parking, and market requirements.

 

As an early adopter, RBA Architects has used TestFit to generate hundreds of site concepts for developers—delivering multiple design configurations in hours rather than weeks or months.
