The SKAPE Process
At SKAPE, design and construction are part of one connected process. From the earliest ideas through design, planning, permitting and construction, our team manages each stage with a clear understanding of what comes next.
For our clients, that means fewer handoffs, better communication and one experienced team guiding the project from concept to keys.
Our involvement can begin even before a property is selected. With extensive experience in Turks & Caicos, we can help clients evaluate potential sites and connect them with trusted local professionals when needed.
Analysis - Every successful project begins with understanding the site. We assess the property, zoning, topography, orientation, buildable area, prevailing winds, water views and other local conditions that will influence the design.
Concept - We translate your vision, lifestyle and priorities into an architectural concept shaped specifically for the site. Floor plans, exterior design, materials and finishes are developed and refined, with renderings and 3D models used where appropriate to bring the design to life.
Planning & Budget - As the design develops, we establish detailed cost estimates and construction schedules, allowing design decisions, budget and buildability to evolve together. This integrated approach provides greater clarity throughout the process and helps keep the project aligned from design through construction.
Drawings - Once the design is refined, detailed architectural, construction and engineering drawings are developed to bring the project from concept into a fully coordinated, buildable design
Permits - We coordinate the submission and permitting process, drawing on our local experience to navigate requirements and approvals efficiently. During this stage, final project details are confirmed in preparation for construction.
Construction - With design, planning and approvals complete, construction begins under the direction of our experienced team. We manage every stage of the build with close attention to quality, coordination and detail, while keeping clients informed through regular communication and progress updates.
