totum.a350 is a partnership dedicated to redefining the design and project delivery process. Its core focus is on the relationship between design execution and its eventual construction. The partnership's dedication to process and product stems from the belief that architecture in its most noble aspiration is crafted from the careful management of intents and expectations in concert with the physical, financial, and legal realities of building. totum.a350 grew out of several years of collaboration between totum and architecture350 attempting to address industry concerns over the cost effective and timely delivery of high quality design.
