An important area of Chenault Woodford International's experience is in justice architecture and consulting for justice centers, prisons, jails and spaces to be used by law enforcement agencies.

Professional Conulting in Architectural Programs, Concept Design and Peer Review Services for the Development of Justice-based Projects

Justice facility design (particularly of courthouses) is much more complex than the design of schools, housing, retail business, or many other facilities. This complexity of courthouses) includes functional organizations melded together to ensure security, safety and privacy.

The architect designing a courthouse facility has, in effect, three clients: the local government or other entity that will have ownership of the building and must pay for it, the court staff (judges, clerks, etc.) who will occupy the building and whose personal needs and desires must be met and the agency of state or federal government that has administrative authority over the courts system and the project’s design (the Administrative Office of the Courts).

ChenaultWoodford International will help you develop your initial vision into a clear and documented statement of purpose and feasibility. ChenaultWoodford will lead your project through the important phases of development – programming, and concept design. Other services can include peer review of plans prepared by other professionals.
