Architecture

What We Do

We work collaboratively with clients, consultants, contractors and end users to create buildings that are beautifully designed, inside and out.

Our Architecture services capture the aspirations of our clients, resulting in the creation of places that are visually appealing, economical, and sustainable. Our approach is driven by collaboration, working with clients and stakeholders to gain a detailed understanding of the project requirements.  We use our skills to question, listen, and develop a dialogue to understand our clients’ needs and find innovative solutions to help them achieve their vision.

The Architecture team have wide ranging experience centred upon design excellence. They work collaboratively with colleagues in all disciplines to provide considered solutions, enabling them to achieve best value and design quality. This results in the formation of a team that works in harmony to deliver above and beyond the objectives of your project.

Our Architecture services include:

Brief Development + Feasibility Studies

The team can establish the viability of projects and explore several possible options by undertaking feasibility studies and option appraisals. These will help to develop fully the project brief in the early stages of our discussion.

Building Information Modelling (BIM)

We are BIM Level 2 accredited and keen advocates of Building Information Modelling. BIM is a key process in the way we deliver projects, enabling clash detection and data verification.

We are committed to the implementation of BIM and fully support collaborative working to achieve efficiently designed and managed projects. Our Architects will work with clients and the wider project team to achieve the benefits of an integrated BIM project.

Building Regulation Applications

Our team have an extensive knowledge of building regulations. We can help you obtain approval for your project by providing advice or completing building regulation applications for proposed works.

Client Advisors

We can provide advice to develop a strong framework for your project. Our Architecture team will work closely with you to establish your aspirations. Once we gain a full understanding of the objectives, drivers, and challenges of your project, we can articulate your needs and help to develop the business case.

Contract Administration

We can handle the contract administration for a project, ensuring the high-quality management of schemes from start to completion.

Design + Build

We have a successful track record in being responsible for the architectural design elements for Design and Build projects. Working with contractors, our team develops the design and specification to ensure compliance with the employer’s requirements, and best value.

Masterplanning

Where long-term strategies or expertise in urban design are required, we will work with you to devise a clear structure for the detailed design of large-scale developments.

Pre-Planning Advice and Design, Outline + Full Planning Applications

If planning permission is required, we can advise clients, create detailed designs and support pre-planning consultation.

Our team can provide planning advice, design information and visuals. We can also obtain specialist support for all surveys and reports required for planning applications.

Production Information

Either as a stand-alone service or as part of a multi-disciplinary project, a comprehensive set of drawings and accurate production information are integral to the success of a construction project. Working in a BIM environment, combining plans, specifications, and detailed information, our team can develop and produce comprehensive sets of co-ordinated information.

Visualisation

Our team includes skilled designers who can generate realistic graphical images of projects using a range of visualisation techniques, including static images and flythroughs, for the immersive VR experience.

Testimonial

“I just wanted to pass on a huge thanks to you all for your hard work in delivering the new school. It has been a pleasure to work with all of you. The whole team has worked really well together, overcoming all of the challenges that have arisen with efficiency and professionalism. The design, specification and finish of the project is fantastic. I’m sure the pupils and staff will enjoy using the space (especially the library – WOW!)…I think the planting at this school is some of the best I’ve seen!”
