Visionary Design. Strategic Execution.

At FASMA Design Group, architecture is more than just aesthetics—it is a rigorous process of problem-solving, collaboration, and innovation. We bring our clients' visions to life through a comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach that balances the "spirit of the times" with functional reality.

Whether we are designing a custom residence or a high-traffic retail environment, our goal remains the same: to create spaces that are timeless, efficient, and deeply responsive to the people who use them

Our Process

From Concept to Occupancy

Great architecture is the result of a deliberate and transparent journey. We guide our clients through a structured workflow designed to eliminate ambiguity and maximize value.

01. Discovery & Feasibility (Programming) We begin by listening. We analyze the site conditions, zoning regulations, and your specific goals to determine what is possible. We identify potential constraints early—such as code limitations or budget challenges—to set a realistic roadmap for success.

02. Schematic Design & Development This is where vision takes shape. Utilizing advanced 3D modeling and collaborative workshops, we explore spatial relationships, massing, and flow. We refine the design iteratively, ensuring the aesthetics align with the functional requirements of the project.

03. Technical Documentation A beautiful design must be buildable. We produce detailed construction documents and specifications that serve as the instruction manual for builders. Our rigorous attention to detail here minimizes change orders and delays during construction.

04. Construction Administration We remain your partner through the build. By maintaining open communication with contractors and engineers, we resolve on-site challenges in real-time, ensuring the final result stays true to the design intent and quality standards.

Sector Expertise

Commercial Retail Architecture

Brand-Forward Environments

In the fast-paced world of retail, architecture is a business asset. We offer comprehensive design solutions for tenant fit-outs, retail storefronts, commercial offices, and mixed-use developments.

Problems We Solve:

  • Speed to Market: In retail, time is money. Our agile workflow and precise documentation streamline the permitting and bidding process, getting your doors open faster.

  • Brand Translation: We solve the disconnect between branding and built space. We translate your brand identity into physical architecture, creating customer touchpoints that drive engagement and sales.

  • Tenant Fit-Out Challenges: We expertly navigate the complex requirements of landlord criteria and building systems, ensuring your specific needs fit seamlessly into existing shells.

Hospitality Architecture

Curating the Guest Experience

From quick-service establishments (QSR) to full-service restaurants, hotels, and bars, we design hospitality spaces that are as operationally efficient as they are inviting.

Problems We Solve:

  • Operational Flow: A beautiful restaurant fails if the kitchen doesn't work. We solve "back-of-house" bottlenecks by designing efficient service flows that maximize staff productivity and speed of service.

  • Acoustics & Lighting: We address common complaints of noise and harsh lighting by integrating acoustic treatments and layered lighting designs that define the mood and enhance guest comfort.

Code Compliance: Hospitality is heavily regulated. We proactively manage health department codes, ADA accessibility, and egress requirements, preventing costly compliance issues down the road.

Residential Architecture

Designing for the Way You Live

Your home is the most personal space you will ever inhabit. Our residential practice covers everything from custom single-family homes and multi-family developments to transformative renovations and additions.

Problems We Solve:

  • Navigating Complexity: We manage the often-overwhelming landscape of local zoning laws and permitting, ensuring your dream home is legally compliant without sacrificing design intent.

  • Maximizing Footprints: For urban renovations or tight lots, we specialize in creative spatial planning that makes small spaces feel expansive and functional.

  • Lifestyle Integration: We don't just design rooms; we design flows. We solve the problem of disjointed layouts by creating cohesive environments that adapt to modern family life and remote work needs.
