Process

A project typically has a number of stages:

01 Development of brief: requirements and aspirations tempted by possibilities of a site and budget.

02 Initial design: sketch designs that are revised and refined to find the best response to the brief.

03 Concept Design: evolution of the sketch design to define the appearance and layout, which concludes with the Planning application.

04 Developed design: with assistance of a structural engineer appointed we can develop the design prepare warrant information.

For smaller projects the above services may be sufficient, for larger projects, the further services may be required:

05 Technical design: detail drawings, specifications, and schedules, and consideration of materials and finishes.

06 Tender: competitive tender or negotiation to select the best contractor for the project.

07 Construction: regular site visits to check progress and quality of work.
