Architecture and Building Surveying
Working closely with the Client we offer a full service from conception and feasibility to planning and building control submissions and tender. We can also provide construction drawings working with the Contractor.
As part of the feasibility stage we will support the Client via a Pre-Application with the local Authority and supporting documentation required to meet the planning submission requirements. Using the correct layouts (based on recommended standards) allows the design to provide a functional use. We can also provide visualisations and street scenes to help the Client fully appreciate the design, materials and massing.
Case Studies:
The proposed development was for the demolition of the existing public house and its replacement on a similar footprint with a 3 and 4 storey building comprising of 11 number 1, 2 and 3 bedroom flats (including 1 flat on the ground floor which can be easily adaptable to a fully accessible wheelchair unit), cycle and refuse storage including recycling.
