KRark believes in the idea of teamwork throughout the design process. We involve the client, design team, engineering consultants, contractor and suppliers in the whole process to have a good exchange of information and feedback to reach a solution that meets the client´s expectations and the needs of the market.
Through this process we have achieved a balance between form, function, technique, environment, context, cost, profitability in the market and most of all, client´s satisfaction.
