What We Do In Architecture
Our experience in architectural design helps clients develop their initial ideas into practical proposals for their property or building project. We work through the design with you, considering how the space needs to work as well as the planning, structural and Building Regulations requirements that may apply.
Where a project requires planning permission, we can prepare the relevant drawings and information for the application and liaise with the local planning authority as it progresses. We also work with builders, contractors and other specialists where required, helping to coordinate the technical information needed as the project moves forward.
For projects progressing to the Building Regulations stage, we can develop the technical drawings and coordinate structural calculations and other information required for the application.
