01
Feasibility
Before anything is drawn, we test whether the idea works: site, planning risk, and a realistic budget. You decide with facts, not hope.
02
Concept & strategy
We shape the brief into a design direction and a planning strategy built around how the case officer actually thinks.
03
Design development
The concept becomes a resolved design: spaces, light, materials, and the detail that makes a building feel considered.
04
Technical & tender
A coordinated technical package a contractor can price and build from, with nothing left ambiguous on site.
05
On site
We stay involved through construction, protecting the design, the budget, and the programme until it is built.

Why it matters
Architect, or architectural designer?
It is not about prestige. “Architect” is a title protected by law: only people on the ARB register may use it, and only after years of training and a Part III exam.
A registered architect answers to a regulator, carries professional indemnity, and is bound by a code of conduct. An “architectural designer” might be excellent, or might be someone with a CAD licence. The difference is simple: with a registered architect you can check. With everyone else, you are trusting a claim.
