Founding member Roman Lysiak's 10+ years of work at Kohn Shnier architects has aided him to develop an eye for contemporary design and the built knowledge of how to detail and create simple and clean spaces. This foundation in contemporary design has made Catalyst very attractive to architects looking to explore viable alternatives to 'run of the mill' construction methods. Catalyst has the ability to materialize out of the box ambitions of today's designers. With construction services being an integral part of the architectural process, we can provide: accurate pricing throughout the design process, designs which need not be over-detailed and overdrawn saving production costs, accurate scheduling with potential quick and early start-ups, a well established communication line between architect, builder and client. Returning to the historical tradition where the architect was the builder and the design was integral to how it was to be built, we at Catalyst Design Build embody the essence of Master Builder.
