  • Our team provides a range of services tailored to your needs, whether you have existing plans and a vision, or are just starting out. We can assess your existing facilities and determine the next steps to achieve your goals.

  • S3 Design will work closely with your team to understand your goals and program vision, then analyze your existing space and facility for areas of improvement. Through our comprehensive evaluation process, we document the operational and program needs in a format that becomes the basis for planning options.

  • Utilizing the information gathered during the programming phase, our team develops site planning options unique to your project, specific site, and goals. We utilize years of expertise to provide options that consider how patrons flow through the site, how venues and program offerings are showcased, and how a site can enhance operational efficiency.

  • We recognize that impactful projects may require a phased approach. Leveraging our extensive industry experience and emphasis on fitness and education, we can design and plan phases that align with your opening dates, financial timelines, and essential program needs for growth.

  • S3 Design works with several trusted and experienced cost estimators to create a consistent and transparent budget. We encourage budget estimating at each phase of the project to ensure the project will be on budget when bids are received, and that value engineering will not be required.
