1 Assessment / Initial Design Consultation Meeting
Unlock Your Project's Potential with Our Kickstart Consultation*
The first step to a successful project starts here. Our Kickstart Consultation is your initial design and feasibility exploration. During this crucial meeting, we'll collaborate with you to:
Review your existing site/development: We'll get a clear understanding of your current situation.
Discuss your vision: Share your aspirations and goals for the project.
Explore possibilities: We'll brainstorm planning considerations, construction techniques, architectural styles, and everything in between to find the perfect fit for your needs.
Develop a personalised plan: Based on our discussions, we'll create a design brief that outlines the project's direction.
After the consultation, you'll receive:
A clear understanding of the next steps.
A no-obligation fee quotation for our design and development services tailored to your specific project needs.
We're committed to delivering exceptional architectural service and expertise on significant scale and design-led projects. Typically, an extension would start with a minimum construction budget of £100,000 and above.

We take the initial design consultation notes to prepare a number of alternative schemes that will be presented to you as an initial starting point.

When you have had time to look through and formulate an opinion of our initial drafts we will arrange a review at your convenience, discussing all options and agree the final design. It may require more than one review meeting to consider any necessary design changes.

When a preferred design has been settled on we will prepare for, submit and negotiate planning and building regulations approval, liaise with structural engineers as necessary, and keep you informed of key matters and developments that arise.

Once all the relevant approvals have been received we issue the final construction drawings to be utilised by your contractors to start the building work.

If you have not appointed a builder, we are more than happy to issue the construction drawings out to tender to a number of reputable and competent building firms for a price quotation , and to help you select the right builder for your project.
