what we do

Solutions

Our consultancy services are built on a foundation of critical thinking, collaborative analysis, and intelligent problem-solving.
​Clients access our expertise through a broad range of services that can be provided individually or fully integrated.

01

Innovative Design

Innovative design is a culture of collaboration that encourages new ideas by challenging everyday norms- resulting in unique perspectives about how buildings are designed and function. The innovative design begins with creative thinkers that develop new and timeless solutions. Innovative design informs our sense of what can be and should be done. It exposes the intrinsic power of technology. It reminds us of the profound nature of invention and discovery, and ultimately makes life more engaging and enriching for those that experience and inhabit our buildings. LGA projects demonstrate a creative way of thinking outside the box and problem solving while responding to real market demands. Our projects transform ideas into innovative uplifting spaces, and produce experiences that resonate with the user and surrounding community. Our projects are spaces and environments that inspire people, enhance the quality of life, are environmentally responsible, and deliver exceptional value.

Sustainable design seeks to reduce negative impacts on the environment and the health and comfort of building occupants, thereby improving building performance. LGA has been committed to energy-efficient and environmentally responsible architecture since our founding in 1983. Our contributions to sustainable development are many, from whole-building design to environmentally sensitive project development. Our broad experience in sustainable development has given LGA the knowledge and expertise to deliver projects with exceptional performance. We focus on producing healthy and productive spaces, energy-efficient facilities that are cost effective to build, maintain and operate; and projects that respond to local, regional and global environmental priorities.
