Design & architecture
Qualified designers and architects can encapsulate your vision into clear and articulate designs, work alongside your local authority to ensure that planning regulations are met, and regularly check your structures as they are being built to ensure that designs are followed.
FAQs
Architects design residential houses, commercial premises, public utility buildings, bridges, and other infrastructure.
Some architects charge a fixed fee, some charge a percentage of the construction cost (typically between 4-12%), and others charge by the hour.
We advise reading about their past project experience, customer reviews, certifications (e.g. RIBA accredited) and their availability to check construction work as it happens to avoid unexpected surprises that can cost you extra to fix later on.
Conceptual designs are created to illustrate the structure and it's features at a high-level and sometimes for marketing or funding purposes, whereas technical designs are detailed low-level designs that engineers use to start constructing structures.
This depends on the size of the project, your availability and the architect’s. The initial meeting is likely to be an hour or so, after which the architect will take measurements. It could be a couple of weeks after that before you receive any drawings.
