COMMUNITY

Community projects are extremely diverse and can range from sporting facilities to libraries, churches and community spaces.

EDG first identifies the key requirements of user groups when beginning the design of a community facility. This often involves liaison with a project steering committee, taking the time to understand the overall aims and objectives of the space and any particular environmental or cultural issues. A library, for example, will require a power supply that can accommodate increasing use of computer technology over time, while for a sporting facility, appropriate lighting for the playing fields, as well as the indoor bar and eating areas, will be of more significance.

The demographic of the end users will also influence design decisions. A library may be primarily utilised by children and senior citizens, so effective lighting, including exterior access lighting, and safe power outlets, will be key design features.

Community projects are also invariably cost sensitive, so EDG provides design solutions that maximise service provision within budget constraints. This extends not only to initial design and installation but also to future maintenance and running costs. Use of energy efficient lighting and timed cut off power switches for example, can reduce operating costs significantly over time
