RE: Proposal for Interior Design 920 Cole Drive

Dear Gina M. Addeo and team,

It was a pleasure talking with you last week, and I appreciate the time you took to walk me through the extensive work already accomplished. Your project is truly exciting, and while fulfilling the unknown gaps may appear challenging, I am confident that our team can provide the crucial support needed to bring it to successful completion. Problem-solving is what I do best, and I’ll give my best every step of the way. Our smart integration and rendering capabilities can showcase each unique design, potentially speeding up the decision-making and coordination process.

Following our discussion, I’ve carefully reviewed the drawings and prepared the enclosed proposal. Our team, led by me, is ready to begin the interior package for pricing, filing, and construction.

Thank you for considering us as your partner in bringing this condo building to life.

Kind regards,

Kaela Dozé

About KDDI

A Brief Overview

Balancing Old & New, Experience & Innovation

KDDI complements its 15 years of expertise with a contemporary entrepreneurial spirit and technological skill for clients in the residential, commercial, education, financial and professional services, retail, sports, and tech and media sectors.

We trace our roots back to 2012, when we first started in Beaverton, Oregon. Since then, we have expanded our knowledge by designing in 5 states and proudly work with clients from a diverse range of industries both domestically and internationally.

Our designers draw upon our deep values and couple it with leading-edge ideas, best-in-practice methodologies, and individual expertise to produce the dynamic and innovative work we are known for today.

What Drives Us

We may be designers by trade, but that’s not the only box we fit into. We’re true partners to our clients, dedicated to their projects as if they were our own. We propel business goals forward through the built environment each and every day.

Our Practice Areas

We are designers at our core. We carefully craft built environments to further each client’s personal and business goals through the combination of these disciplines.

Architecture

Whether a new building or a renovation of an existing structure, we create architecture that adds value. We balance crafting a unique identity while carefully integrating each project into its surroundings.

Interiors

We introduce creativity to spaces from the multi-disciplined backgrounds of our team. We craft solutions unique to each client, reinforcing their goals, identity, and culture throughout their new space.

Planning

We help clients prepare for the future. We interpret their needs and layer their vision for the future. We aim to support our clients’ high performing businesses, from interiors to buildings, to campuses, stores, and beyond.

Technology

We research and develop technologies that support the design process and enhance the experience for our clients. From apps to drones or proprietary virtual reality tools, we integrate new ways of doing things.

Our Values

Everything we do is rooted in the values that drive us. From our first meeting to project close-out. This is who we are.

Kick Ass Every Day

We live for light-bulb moments that make the difference. That needle won’t move itself forward.

Never Settle

We go head first into the unknown. We try new things and set new standards. Status quo is so last year.

Keep It Quirky

We break molds instead of fitting into them. Lose your filter. Ditch your suit. You do you.

Make It Happen

We always bet on great ideas and we aren’t afraid of the hard work behind them. Our hustle is real.

02 Design Lab

The future of design is digital—and we are already working in that future.

For us, research and development is a firm-wide initiative. Everyone at KDDI is a part of these efforts, we don’t outsource innovation. When we spot areas for improvement, both in processes and in delivery of design, we do something about it — everyone is equipped to handle your needs through these innovations.

It All Starts With Revit®

Architects, engineers, consultants, and contractors use Autodesk Revit®, the BIM software tool that can share models across multiple firms and disciplines seamlessly. We use it to support a truly collaborative process. Models can be instantly synced to allow for full coordination on a single project. It enables early clash detection and provides some visualization tools to communicate design with clients. It’s our goal to work with consultants and partner with engineers who also use this software.

Next Is 360 Design Sessions

Our developers are launching our custom user interface, the KDDI:ToolKit. The ToolKit equips you with the tools you need in the VR Environment to do much more than just explore the model and look around. Use the Teleport function to move around, get dimensions of spaces or objects with Tape Measure, and easily reconfigure furniture to redefine a space and explore alternative layouts. The best part is that you’re empowered to make design decisions—no designer or developer is required.

03 Scope of Services

Project Objective

Create a distinctive, highly coordinated interior environment for a custom residence of approximately 12,000 square feet, while maintaining clarity across design intent, technical documentation, procurement, construction, installation, and client decision-making.
