Integrated Creative Management

The design-build process has become the standard within countless industries where the overlap of multiple phases and disciplines has become a de-facto economic necessity. Cinnabar has been a pioneer in applying fast-track management techniques to specialty construction, resulting in a productive match of resources to the scale of the work.

Cinnabar’s practices have evolved well beyond simply “design-build.” The set of processes and practices we use are interrelated and interconnected, such that the end product benefits from the integration of inputs in a parallel manner. This definition upends the linear and compartmentalized norm of most design and development processes.

Integrated Creative Management yields a far shorter production time span, and typically, because time is money, a more cost-effective solution.
