  Philosophy Design Masterplanning Assessment Documentation Sustainability About Us  

A significant commitment is required to incorporate existing buildings in green strategies. Sustainable strategies must also recognize the interdependence of people and their built environment requires careful consideration of the needs of both. At Drisko Studio, our building assessment service for existing properties not only evaluates the condition of the materials, structure and systems that create and support the architectural character of a property but also addresses the needs for continuous and improved use.

At the Riverside Metropolitan Museum, the assessment also included the development of coordinated multidisciplinary work scopes and cost information grouped and prioritized in a preservation plan that addresses both the historic character as well as the continued and enhanced functionality of a world-class museum.
