• Architects and designers are important influencers.
Symbiotic relationships are key, as jobs are generally understaffed by the client and underdocumented.
• Daoust is well respected among architects with a solid reputation. It is considered low-maintenance, which is a great benefit. Architects do not have time to educatebuilders.

• Ottawa is considered to be a humbling market.
• Want a firm to look at the big picture and fine details of their visions.
