Process

How we work

From the first conversation to the day the keys are in your hand. The whole path, set down plainly.

Phase 01

Getting started

We get to know you, your site and what you are hoping for, then put it all down in plain language before anything begins.

01

Discovery conversation

We meet, in the studio or over a call, to understand how you live or trade, what your site is like, where the budget sits, and what you are hoping for.

Your part

Share the vision
02

Proposal and agreement

We set out the scope, the stages, the fees and the programme in language anyone can follow. Nothing starts until you have read it over and are comfortable saying yes.

Your part

Read it over, ask anything

Phase 02

Design

The idea takes shape on paper first, then in three dimensions, so you can see and feel it long before it is built.

03

Concept and feasibility

The first studies arrive with the thinking that holds them together: how the building meets its site, how light moves through it, and what the site, budget and regulations will actually allow.

Your part

Take in the big idea
04

Design development

We resolve materials, proportion and detail together, and bring the space into 3D so you can judge it well before anyone breaks ground. Samples are seen in the real light of the room.

Your part

React, and help us refine

Phase 03

Delivery

We handle the documents and stay close to the build, all the way through to handover.

05

Documentation and approvals

Drawing sets and specifications precise enough to price and build from without guessing, plus the authority submissions and coordination that go with them.

Your part

Leave it with us
06

Construction and handover

We stay close through the build — inspection, variations, snagging — right up to the day the keys change hands and the space finally becomes yours.

Your part

Watch it come to life
