https://entrearchitect.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/designbuild.png ()The Passion, The Process and Problems of Running a Design/Build Architecture Firm Do you want more control? More money? More happy clients? More architecture with better design? Is design/build the answer to our professions problems? Will building your own projects be the solution to success for your small firm? What does it take to run a successful design build firm? This week on EntreArchitect Podcast, Mark speaks with Jim Zack and Declan Keefe about The Passion, The Process and Problems of Running a Design/Build Architecture Firm. About Jim and Declan Jim Zack is based in San Francisco, California as the co-founder and partner at his design build firm, https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwikzYK6gqXWAhWm5lQKHcchBHcQFggpMAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.zackdevito.com%2F&usg=AFQjCNFqn6I-K2nHl3jRr_O-TWGthhz8Ug (Zack de Vito: Design + Build). He visited EntreArchitect Podcast on https://entrearchitect.com/admin/post.php?post=5930&action=edit (EA102: Risks and Rewards with Architect Developer Jim Zack). He’s a current facilitator at EntreArchitect Academy’s Design/Build Mastermind Group. Declan Keefe is a founder and owner at http://www.placetailor.com (Placetailor) and a three-time guest at EntreArchitect Podcast: https://entrearchitect.com/admin/post.php?post=10286&action=edit (EA130: How to Build a Successful Architecture Firm That Works with Architect Declan Keefe), https://entrearchitect.com/admin/post.php?post=11850&action=edit (EA141: How to Build a Brand that Resonates with Your Most Valuable Clients), https://entrearchitect.com/admin/post.php?post=10573&action=edit (EA134: How to Get Started as an Architect Developer). How are your design/build firms structured? Jim has been involved in building things for a long time and he’s been in business for 25 years. He began working construction when he was 15 and was trained in carpentry long before he was an architect. Zack de Vito is organized as two different companies: one a construction company and one architecture firm. They’ve found that a lot of liability and contractual details organize themselves well in those two separate businesses. Conceptually, they try to make it feel like one company. Architects come to the office and sit and draw, and construction workers go to the site and build. As hard as they try to integrate the two day in and day out, it may not always be as seamless of a process. Zack de Vito has a project manager, estimator, a partner at the construction company, 6-10 carpenters, and 5-8 people in the office ranging from an interior designer to Jim’s wife, who performs office management and marketing for the firm. Placetailor is set up similarly although technically their architecture and construction companies are formally one business, where their development entity is a separate business. As far as scale, Placetailor has almost the same team setup as Zack de Vito. Their business came from a true design/build model where they weren’t doing any design for any other firms, and all their projects were able to be completed internally. In the last few years, they’ve switched to provide architecture for other builders as well. Even though they’re one business, they functionally work as architecture, construction and real estate development. Development is separated because it has a much higher level of risk involved. Was there a point where you went from  a traditional architecture firm to an architecture design/build firm? For Jim, it’s been an evolution. He’s entrepreneurial by spirit, and did a design/build project with his dad when he was 23 years old to design and build two house and each have one. Eventually he went to architecture school, bought a house and remodeled it. When he opened an office...

Can we make buildings that are better for the planet than doing nothing? When you build a home, you make an immediate and ongoing negative impact on the environment (relative to having done nothing, that is). Tune in to hear from Declan Keefe of Placetailor, a design and construction firm with a vision to do better. (Oh, their homes are also drop-dead gorgeous by the way.)

https://entrearchitect.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/ExteriorHighlandFacade.jpg ()This week at EntreArchitect Podcast, we invited Declan Keefe of Placetailor back to share his knowledge about How to Get Started as an Architect Developer. To hear Declan’s origin story about how he was hired by a firm as a student and ended up owning it less than three years later, check out https://entrearchitect.com/podcast/how-to-a-build-successful-architecture-firm/ (EntreArchitect Podcast Episode 130). http://placetailor.com (Placetailor) is an architecture firm that provides architecture services, construction services, and real estate development. They look at architecture as the genesis of ideas, and wanted to figure out how they were going to take control over the revenue and profit side of the business. After taking over a company that was in quite a bit of debt, the team decided they needed a “silver bullet” to pull them out: real estate development. They saw a conjuncture between architecture and real estate development in that they’re including an important piece in the middle of the relationship – the builder – where most of the revenue exists. Depending on how you set up the structure of your business, we know for sure that profits feed through the construction arm. The Architect as Developer model would function as a developer who expenses architecture as an overhead cost and relies on the profits from development to pay itself back on the architecture side. The major difference is that you can’t pay the entire cost of construction on the profits on development (Architect as Developer), whereas you can potentially pay the entire cost of the architecture fees on the profits from development (Architect as Builder-Developer). Placetailor has a design-build business and then they have a development, LLC for each project, for a few reasons. First is liability: if one of the projects fail, the entire business doesn’t have to go under. Also, they’re an employee-owned cooperative. Different members of the cooperative can be on different projects, as well as leave an opening to bring in people who aren’t within the coop to be partial owners in the project if needed. How to Get Started as an Architect Developer Step 1: Find an Opportunity Declan and his partner, Evan, walk around a neighborhood to see the land that’s available and what’s going on in the area to see if there’s an opportunity, usually for residential condo-based development. Then there’s a little research into the properties, the leans, who owns it, and any complexities they may or may not want to deal with. Step 2: Is it a good decision as a financial model?  Placetailor has created a lot of spreadsheet tools to do both quick and detailed analyses. If the number at the end looks like it could be a decent project, they decide to go after it. Step 3: Put an Offer In Based on the analysis, they know how high they can go and where to start with an offer. Don’t get attached emotionally and be prepared to walk away if it doesn’t work out. Step 4: Financing If/when the offer is accepted, they have to figure out the financials behind it. There’s a few approaches: they’ve used a crowd-funding approach and they worked to pitch their brand with confidence to people who they knew cared about it. They said, “We’re doing something new, we want to push the boundaries of high-performance building and we want to test it in the real estate development world.” Step 5: Establish Contacts Keep track of people who are interested in what you’re doing and may want to get involved. When you meet people at conferences or have people reach out, keep in touch with them to let them know next phases of your company. Step 6: Be Prepared to Move Fast Things move quickly. It’s potential that your investors may not have done this often, and you...

https://entrearchitect.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/1457646594692.png ()This month, we’re shifting our focus from technology to management. How do we build a successful business? How do we build the right systems and team? How can we efficiently and effectively do what we do as architects in the most profitable way? This week on EntreArchitect Podcast, Declan Keefe of http://www.placetailor.com (Placetailor) talks about How to Build a Successful Architecture Firm That Works.  Declan spent his younger years focused on photography and fine arts before realizing that wasn’t the direction he wanted to go. He began to think about architecture as large-scale, “occupiable” sculpture, convincing himself that it was okay to transfer into architecture without compromising his creative path. While still in school, Declan found a job as a founding employee to start Placetailor, a firm that wanted to fully integrate the design and building process of architecture. Every member of the team had to have an understanding and a base skill set of being able to both design and build. Three years into the business, when he was a project manager and still in school, the founder of the company stepped away. Rather than allowing Placetailor to die, Declan stepped into the role of owner in 2013. Placetailor is working to provide a fun experience for clients by creating a brand with loud colors, snarky commentary, and relevance to the times. While splitting his time between design and working in the field, Declan realized that they needed to do some work to actually run a business. He put his head down in the office to figure out how to let people know who Placetailor was and how to convince potential clients that what they’re doing is a good idea. His plan was to transfer the business into an employee-owned cooperative. They began to test the boundaries of where architecture and construction met, and to figure out their roles in high-performance and energy-efficient buildings. How did he work to make that transition to a successful cooperative? Help each other to balance different strengths and weaknesses Incentivize with a three-year vesting period prior to becoming an employee-owner Test geographic and technological boundaries Strategized to streamline systems on larger scales for sustainability Developed bylaws as a cooperative, an operating agreement and general rules and guidelines for how they operate as a team How do they dream and decide on which decisions to move forward? A dream is born Decide how much time & money can be allotted to pursue that dream Invest in the idea first before someone else does Let ideas work through the architecture, development, construction and investment arms Prepare for meetings by trying to anticipate where different people are going to end up so the meeting can continue to think through impacts on the business Use digital minutes to track decisions throughout meetings Connect with Declan online at http://placetailor.com (Placetailor.com) and on Twitter http://instagram.com/placetailor (@placetailor) & http://instagram.com/placetailor (Instagram).
