Starting with the Site and Brief

A successful new home responds to the people who will live there and the place it occupies. We study access, orientation, views, neighbours and the wider character of the site.

​

Feasibility and Planning

Early work tests how much development the site can support. We consider planning policy, constraints and likely consultant requirements before major decisions are made.

​

Exploring Design Options

We develop clear alternatives for layout, form and appearance. Drawings and visualisations help you compare ideas and choose a preferred direction.

​

Sustainable and Buildable Design

Comfort, energy use and material choices are considered from the outset. The design must also be practical to build and aligned with the available budget.

​

Technical Design and Delivery

We can coordinate planning, Building Regulations, consultants, tendering and construction information. Our role can continue through builder selection and the work on site.
