Initial Consultation
1 meeting · no obligation
We meet, at the site if we can. We talk about what you want to build, your budget frame and your timeline. You leave with an honest reading of what is achievable and a clear fee proposal.
Method statement · 7 phases
How a project runs
Building takes a long time. It should never be mysterious. This is the sequence every project follows. At any moment you know which phase you are in, what it produces, and what comes next.
Site & Brief Analysis
2–4 weeks
We study the plot: rights, constraints, slope, light, context. Your needs become a written brief. That document then measures every design decision that follows.
Concept Design
4–8 weeks
The architectural idea takes shape: plans, sections, massing, atmosphere images. You see genuine alternatives, not three versions of one scheme. We refine together until the concept feels inevitable.
Planning & Permits
varies by authority
The approved concept becomes a full statutory submission. We manage the consultants, answer the committee's comments and represent you until the permit is in hand.
Detailed Design
8–14 weeks
Every junction, material, fixture and built-in element gets drawn and specified. Careful detailing here is what protects your budget, and your patience, on site.
Coordination & Supervision
through construction
We help you pick a builder. We answer site questions fast. We check the work against the drawings and guard the design in regular visits and written reports.
Completion
handover + follow-up
Snag list, final approvals, handover documents. Then one more visit after you have lived in the building for a while. That is where architecture takes its real exam.
