Tailored to what matters,
at every stage

Successful design starts with understanding what matters—to you, your project, your community, and your building.

We don’t have a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we work closely with you in a clear, collaborative, and responsive way, ensuring you only invest in the services you need.

Solutions for every project

Our experience allows us to work across sectors. But the process we follow on a home extension is very different to the one we use for larger commercial projects. Below you can find out more about how we work in different sectors.

Our Services

We offer a range of service levels to suit different circumstances. Our aim is always to simplify the process, reduce risk, and unlock the full potential of your project.

One-off consultancy

Support and advice on specific project challenges delivered on an hourly or fixed-fee basis. 

Budget-conscious design services

For clients in early development phases or with limited funding, we offer reduced-scope design packages that focus on essential outputs – such as outline designs, key coordination drawings, or technical signposting.

Feasibility and concept-only services

For clients testing the potential of a site, a building, or an idea, we offer quick-turnaround feasibility studies, outline sketches, massing models, and early cost guidance. 

Stage-specific packages

If you require planning permission or listed building consent, but already have a good idea of what you want, we can take on Stage 3 as a targeted, standalone package. We’ll prepare coordinated drawings, design and access statements, and heritage assessments that speak the right language to your local authority and statutory consultees.  Or maybe you have planning and need a detailed construction package, in which case we can help you flesh out the detail and specification and assist in tendering the project to suitable contractors. 

Full-service leadership (Stages 0–7)

For clients seeking continuity, peace of mind, and deep design leadership, we provide comprehensive support through every work stage. We take the lead on design, approvals, consultant coordination, procurement, and contract administration – managing risks, resolving issues, and ensuring quality from beginning to end.

Common questions

An architects role is to bring their creativity, technical knowledge, cost awareness and regulatory expertise to help you get the most value from your investment. We see the bigger picture and will design a solution that’s right for you, not just one that is easy to build.
We protect the brief, the budget and the building so you know the end result will be safe, thoughtfully designed and a genuine improvement to how you live or work.

The RIBA stages are a framework for managing building projects covering briefing, designing, building and operating a building. It offers more transparency, control and confidence at each stage. The framework is fixed but our level of service within it is flexible.

Not every client needs every stage. Some come to us for strategic advice in the early stages, others need focused help getting through planning or resolving challenges on site. Some want us to lead the entire journey.
