Spaces that foster belonging and contribute to a healthy community

Our team has comprehensive capabilities to support FF&E procurement. We collaborate with you, beginning during the concept and engagement phase to weigh the pros and cons of various strategies, ensuring that we are setting a course in the right direction. These options include assisting you in selecting required vendors, working with your procurement partner, creating competitively biddable FF&E documents for your use, or handling the entire process turnkey with our vendors in procurement. The right choice will depend on your needs and goals for the project and our team has the experience to help you select the most beneficial option.

We believe in the value of an onsite design charrette to jumpstart the design process when appropriate. Once all necessary background information has been gathered, we engage in these sessions to generate ideas and garner real-time feedback for strategic design elements. These work sessions typically span one or two days and offer multiple touchpoints for clients, stakeholders, and community members. Bodwé teams leverage existing standards and industry best practices and resources to build a space planning framework that is unique to every project.

The Bodwé interior design team collaborates with our architecture colleagues to develop wayfinding approaches that are unique to every facility and community. Signage, graphics, materials, and color all help orient people to where they are physically and how to move within the space. This can take the form of cultural symbology and language that put people at ease and create a sense of belonging. Our approach also includes architectural wayfinding elements including zones with unique identities, paths as distinct areas for movement, markers to indicate destinations or positions along a route, networked nodes where pathways intersect or divide, and edges that define the perimeter of each element. We integrate these elements through form and function to create intuitive environments and welcoming experiences.
