PTI actively supports and encourages in our work involvement in programmes that promote care for the environment and care for the occupants and users of the building ~ for their well-being and social support.

Designing buildings that :

• encourage care for the environment

• encourage re-cycling
• encourage a sense of community : to create a social and support infrastructure for its occupants
• promote health and well-being on both an individual and group basis ~ through the facilities it provides and the activities it can offer
• support the ethos, culture and lifestyle of the area and of the local community
• promote a sense of local pride and responsibility

PTI has been working in this area for the last 10 years. Our Peppers Perth Hotel (see separate entry) was built substantially using these techniques and we have been working with these technologies to apply them for a number of other projects, both low scale and high-rise buildings.

These new and developing method offer particular advantages for tourism and accommodation buildings being their repetition and small spans.

These methodologies are also being increasingly used for building componentry such as for bathrooms and interior fit out items.

This is used for communicating and developing the detail of the designs and material selections with our Clients, and to communicate with everyone associated with the project to assist them to understand and visualise what we are looking to achieve. This assists to ensure the best and most effective delivery of the project.

We provide:

• Photomontage and 3D Views for both exterior and interior views
• Shadow Diagrams for Authority Approvals
• View Analysis Reports
• Presentation Plans and documents forming part of a Sales brochure or Marketing documents.
• Ongoing project images to assist with detailed design issues and materials selections for the project

This is to ensure we achieve the overall look, feel and level of operational efficiency and practicality our Client’s are looking to achieve.

In this regard :

• We source many products direct from China through our experience with a wide range of suppliers
• We are able to work under budget constraints from the low-cost to the luxury
