Ecotone carries amenity system authorship from early planning through construction and
long‑term operation.

Our process aligns spatial planning, technical system design, and construction execution so
that spa, pool, fitness, and landscape environments perform reliably within complex
high‑rise buildings.

01 — System Alignment

Establishing the spatial and technical framework of the amenity systems within the
building.

• Space planning and schematic design
• Amenity programming and adjacency logic
• Circulation and transition relationships
• Feasibility review and infrastructure implications
• Preliminary visualization to align design intent
• Interface definition with base building architecture

This phase positions spa, pool, fitness, and landscape environments within the broader
architecture of the building.

02 — Technical Definition

Translating system intent into coordinated, buildable documentation.

• Technical design development
• MEP coordination and performance requirements
• Full equipment specifications and system integration
• Mechanical room planning and infrastructure detailing
• Construction interface definition

This phase defines the systems so they can be built without reinterpretation.

03 — Design–Build Execution

Carrying authorship into construction and operation.

• Fabrication and installation
• Field coordination and system integration
• Testing, commissioning, and performance verification
• Owner handover and operational training
• Long‑term maintenance guidance

This phase maintains continuity between design intent and real‑world performance.

Continuity

Amenity environments often fragment across consultants, documentation phases, and
trades.

Ecotone’s process maintains a single technical logic from planning through operation,
reducing coordination burden and preserving system performance across the entire
amenity environment.

Ecotone primarily works on commercial projects, including high-rise residential towers,
mixed-use developments, and hospitality properties.

Selective residential projects are occasionally undertaken but are not the firm’s primary
focus.

Ecotone usually works on commercial projects from high-rise towers to hospitality offerings, but occasionally we do residential projects.
