First things first
Before contacting an architect, you will need to draw up a project brief. This is your wish-list for the project. Focus on what you want to achieve, noting down all your requirements and highlighting any problems that need solving. Think in terms of how you will use the space now and in the future, rather than what needs to be built. You should also try to establish your overall budget. This will
help you discuss costs upfront with the architect and avoid disappointment at a later stage.
What do we do?
The first thing we will do is ask questions, listen and understand what you are trying to achieve. Then we will work with you to develop your project brief and finalise the budget. It is essential that you agree this between you before starting the project. A good architect will develop solutions and propose ways to reduce costs whilst coming up with a design that will increase the building’s value. We’ll guide you through a whole range of processes – from coming up with an initial design to seeing the project through planning and construction to completion.
Fees
Fees will vary depending on the location and complexity of the project. Some charged on the basis of a total project cost, others on a fixed price lump sum or on a time charge basis – from coming up with an initial design to seeing the project through to completion.
How we can Help?
Once you’ve agreed your initial project brief and budget, it’s a good time to consult us. Most architects offer one-off consultations and these can be incredibly useful, we go further by digging deeper and exploring solutions. We will give you guidance on all the aspects of your project from design and cost
through to planning and construction. In a short space of time you can gain an enormous amount of valuable information which will help you realise your project.
We can offer a full service for projects with a budget of £30,000 or more or can help you figure out how to get the best out of your project, regardless of size and whether they are needed later on.
If you need planning permission then it is likely that you will need
us as the Architects for your project.
Appointing us as the Architect
Once you’ve made your decision, the first thing to do is to discuss and agree on the scope and cost of Architectural services before any work starts. It is important that this agreement is in writing, setting out the services to be provided and outlining the obligations of each party. For smaller projects the agreement may be set out in a self-contained letter of appointment that outlines the obligations of both parties
