Ember Heart Construction

(Construction industry)

January 2009 — Present (11 months)

Design-build is an integrated delivery process that has been embraced by the world’s great civilizations. In ancient Mesopotamia, the Code of Hammurabi (1800 BC) fixed absolute accountability upon master builders for both design and construction. In the succeeding millennia, projects ranging from cathedrals to cable-stayed bridges, from cloisters to corporate headquarters, have been conceived and constructed using the paradigm of design-build.
Ember Heart Construction, LLC wants full accountability for architecture, engineering and construction. In fact, like the ancient master builders, Ember Heart Construction prefers it. By knowledgeably pursuing design quality, and by effectively controlling costs and schedule, Ember Heart Construction makes certain that concept-to-completion is more than idle discourse. It is a reality carved in stone.
