FIRCO draws upon our global resources to provide clients with the most comprehensive set of end-to-end planning, architectural and creative services available in the marketplace today. Always at our table: great architecture rooted in smart planning and urban design, but we take that model to the next level with services like interior design and environmental graphic design, and intelligent engineering and applied technology services. In the end, we create fluid, cohesive, sustainable environments that serve the needs of today and stand the test of time.
Interior Design
From the initial client meeting through occupancy, our specialists in programming, space planning and interior design work with our clients to identify their design goals, schedule requirements and budgetary parameters. Ultimately, we develop a design that is sensitive to the individual considerations of the project and reflects and advances our clients’ missions
Graphics Design
FIRCO creates easily navigable, detailed and exciting places that express our clients’ brand and strengthen their relationships with their customers. Our services include: environmental graphic design, strategic branding, identity/logo, signage and way finding, print and collateral, and multimedia.
Urban Design
Whether revitalizing city districts or developing large-scale land plans, our planning group creates visually exciting and economically viable settings in which people live, work and shop. Drawing on decades of experience, FIRCO planners and urbanists create projects that establish logical frameworks, foster heightened cooperation between public and private interests, and spark a sense of civic and community pride.
Environmental Design
The Environments Studio, a group of professionals from a range of disciplines, has developed a unique way of translating our clients’ intangible brand, corporate mission or desired experience into a tangible, built environment. The strategic approach to design helps to bring our clients closer to reaching their short- and long-term business and environmental goals.
Historic Preservation
Our historic preservation professionals aim to revitalize communities and give buildings new meaning for the future. With services ranging from replacing building systems to addressing accessibility and safety issues, we’ve worked with historic structures of all types, facilitating renovation, adaptive reuse, reconstruction and rehabilitation.
Structural Design
Our innovative structural engineering studio strives to overcome the physical limitations of sites while also meeting the requirements of each project. The studio works with our in-house architects, as well as with clients directly, to develop solutions to the full range of structural needs, in many cases creating new opportunities for the architect and project owner.
MEP Engineering
Our mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineers offer clients a full complement of services dedicated to efficient system operations and technological innovation. Our careful, computer-modeled studies ensure each system balances initial cost against operating expenses to achieve a life-cycle cost-benefit ratio that meets every requirement of the owner.
Sustainability
Every FIRCO project reflects a commitment to preserving and ensuring the needs of future generations and the capacity of our resources. From project conception to completion, FIRCO implements sustainable design practices ranging from the use of environmentally friendly products to LEED Certification.
