Your standards, held
The details and decisions your practice has settled carry forward — available where the next project starts, not buried in a folder from the last one.
Compounding infrastructure for the craft of building design
Treillage is the structure that makes a firm’s craft compound — your standards and details accrue into an asset you own, instead of being rebuilt every project.
A trellis is structure that makes growth possible — and the structure compounds: each season builds on the lattice already there. Treillage turns the work a practice has already done into the work it never has to do again.
The details and decisions your practice has settled carry forward — available where the next project starts, not buried in a folder from the last one.
The second project is faster because of the first. The structure remembers what holds, so your team spends its hours on judgment, not on rebuilding from scratch.
What accrues belongs to the firm — a lattice of standards and details that grows more valuable with every project you run through it.
From the firms we work with
We work hands-on with a small number of practices and publish what compounds for them — the standard that held across projects, the detail nobody had to redraw, the second job that started ahead of the first. Every claim is cited to its source.
Treillage’s own founding firm — design partner #1.
Every project, the same corrections came back on redline — windows and doors questioned and re-questioned, swings reversed, beam sizes re-called-out, the same sheet-set and tag gaps flagged again — and the exterior window/door schedule was rebuilt from scratch on each new job instead of carried forward.
CRAFT’s recurring redlines and a live in-progress deliverable are being captured as named, reusable structure instead of living in one detailer’s head — so the next project starts from what the firm already settled rather than from a blank sheet.
Across 11 CRAFT projects, the same redline recurred in three or more separate projects in seven distinct cases — a measure of how much was being redrawn by hand, project after project.
