Vissi Architecture

VISSI Architecture + Design is an architecture and design practice that carries projects from conceptual site planning through permitting, bidding, construction administration, and closeout.

Early-stage work includes conceptual floor plans, architectural and conceptual site planning, fixture and unit mix layouts, and walk-through renderings, along with attendance at township approval meetings and coordination with civil engineers and other consultants. Design development covers refined code research, establishing building systems for HVAC, plumbing, and electrical work, and emergency calculations.

The practice prepares construction documents and specifications, submits permits in person or online, tracks the permit process and responds to building department comments, and supports bidding through pre-bid meetings, product substitution requests, and bid analysis. It offers self-certification in New York City. During construction it attends pre-construction and progress meetings, reviews and tracks shop drawings, reviews payment applications, and produces lease verification surveys, certificates of substantial completion, closeout documentation, and as-built documentation. Separate assessment services include infrared roof analysis, light level footcandle analysis, and fire damage assessment.

The firm describes itself as licensed and active nationwide and says it has been in business for 100 years. Confirm which states it currently holds registration in, and who seals the drawings, before engaging it outside its home market.
