Building Management

Great design is measured by how well it endures. Our studio provides comprehensive building and facilities management services to protect your investment and ensure your building operates at its peak long after construction is complete. From preventative maintenance to systems optimization, we are your single partner for the entire lifecycle of your property, guaranteeing that its everyday performance matches its initial beauty.

Violation Remediation

Discovering a building violation can be stressful, but you don't have to navigate it alone. Our studio provides expert violation remediation services, offering a clear path to compliance. We assess the issue, develop a strategic solution that satisfies regulatory authorities, and manage the entire resolution process—turning a complex challenge into a closed case and restoring your peace of mind.

Design Consulation

Your vision deserves clarity, no matter the path you choose. We offer standalone design consultation services to help you refine your concept, navigate early challenges, and set your project on the right course—even if you haven't selected a full-service design firm. Think of us as a strategic partner for that critical first step, providing expert insight to empower your entire journey.

DOB Compliance

Navigating government regulations is a complex but critical part of any project. Our architectural studio provides dedicated expertise in regulatory compliance, managing the entire permit and approval process with agencies on your behalf. We ensure your project meets all building, zoning, and accessibility codes, saving you time, mitigating risk, and guaranteeing a smooth, successful path to groundbreaking.

Places of Assembly

At Nexus Design Collective, we specialize in navigating the complex approval process for Places of Assembly with the New York City Department of Buildings (DOB).

Our comprehensive services begin with a thorough analysis of use and occupancy requirements under the NYC Building and Fire Codes to determine the correct Certificate of Occupancy or Assembly permit pathway.

We develop all necessary architectural plans, detailing critical life-safety components such as compliant occupant load calculations, egress design, accessible routes, and fire-rated separations. Our expertise ensures meticulous preparation of submissions for Place of Assembly applications, alterations (Alt-3), and new construction, managing the entire process from initial consultation and drawings through to DOB filing, agency coordination, and final sign-off to secure your legal certificate of operation.

TPP/EPPGs/FPPs/etc

Our specialized work includes developing comprehensive Tenant Protection Plans (TPPs) that detail procedures for maintaining safety and habitability during adjacent construction or renovations.

We are adept at creating detailed Fire Safety and Evacuation Plans, along with fully compliant Fire Protection Plans, which integrate essential components like egress routes, compartmentalization, and fire-rated assemblies.

Our team produces the full suite of associated compliance drawings and documentation required by local building codes, FDNY, and the Department of Buildings, ensuring our clients' projects not only meet but exceed safety standards, protecting both residents and the long-term viability of the building.
