If you’re ready to make your home work better for your lifestyle and start feeling excited about your space, we’re here to help.
You’re probably already thinking:
Whether you’ve done a building project before, or whether you are doing it for the very first time, we will empower you with all the information you need to move forward with confidence.
Just as you are unique, your property is too – we will offer you options to suit your personal need for control over your home and your project.
Take action and get in touch so that we can help you move forward with clarity.
We offer a core range of tiered service packages to suit your unique needs: “Essentials” – “Assured” – “Refined”. Our approach ensures that you can choose the right level of support to match the complexity of your project. From the bare essentials to empowering you with control, we have you covered.
A solid starting point.
The essential documents needed for your Planning and Building Regulations submissions. Ideal for experienced clients or straight foward projects.
The most popular choice.
Building on the Essentials package, this option includes detailed construction drawings to support smoother co-ordination with your contractor.
For superior attention to detail.
This package includes additional design detail and material specifications to refine your space and provide you with more control over the end result.

We meet with you virtually or in-person to discuss your project and how we can help. Following this meeting, we will provide you with a fee proposal, which will give you a good idea of all your anticipated non-construction related costs.
After we have drawings of your existing property, we move on to the fun stuff – sketching out options that we will spread out across a table, so that we can mull over them with you.
Now that we have a sketch option that you love, we will develop the design and provide you with a couple of options for the outside look of your home. Then we move on to submitting your Planning Application – which can be a bit nail biting, but we’re on hand to help you.
Hooray! We have received Planning approval! Now, alongside other consultants such as a Structural Engineer, we prepare the technical information that your contractor will need to build your project. Once all the information is compiled, we will submit the documents for Building Control approval.
It’s now over to you and your contractor, with or without our help. Once we get to know each other a bit better, we will discuss the many options with you so that you can move foward with confidence and feel supported.
The best part of the entire process. You get to move back into your new home! But, please, no arguing over who gets the best bedroom.
These steps are an overview of how we work…. and what’s involved in our process. If you would like to dig a little deeper into the details, then you might like this: Our Process.
Every project that we undertake is as individual as the client behind it. Your vision is our priority, and if you don’t yet have that vision – we can help you to find it.
We understand that designing or extending your home is one of the biggest investments that you’ll ever make. It’s not just about creating a space – it’s about creating your space, where your family can thrive, where memories are made and futures can unfold.
By working with us, you’ll have a trusted partner who will guide you through the process, ensuring that every detail is thoughtfully considered and expertly executed.
We are specialists in low-energy homes and integrate sustainable design principles into every project. If you’re interested in a Passivhaus certified home or simply want to reduce your energy bills, we can help you do that – have a look at our Energy+ service option.
We completely understand that this is your biggest question…and it’s not a straight foward one for us to answer.
Our fees are essentially affected by how big and how complicated your project is and which service package you choose is right for you.
