Helping you get started with the process by guiding you through the RIBA Stage 0 and 1. This includes clarifying the 'Strategic Definition' and compiling a 'Project Brief', and our own 'Project Bible' to anchor the journey moving forward. This is an important process of getting to know each other and understanding what excites you, or in some cases scares you, about the path ahead. A thorough assessment at this early stage can act as a North Star and ensure the overall scheme stays true to your design and sustainability aspirations.
Progressing through RIBA Stage 2 and 3 we navigate through the requirements of the previously compiled 'Project Bible' and apply creative and innovative thinking to design the home you want to build. This includes the 'Concept Design' and 'Spatial Coordination' work, progressing from the initial ideas through to a detailed scheme. We bring Passivhaus methodologies in at an early stage to ensure that the design is positively reacting to its site and other external factors, such as wind direction and the sun's path across the sky.
This is the point where you start seeing your home taking shape and we are able to discuss materials, flow and sustainability goals in more detail. We would look to submit your new home for planning permission at different points in this phase depending on the individual nature of the proposal.
The 'Technical Design', RIBA Stage 4, is the part where we really scrutinise and stress test the design whilst preparing it for becoming a reality. We ensure that all the desires from the earlier design phase are systematically incorporated in a drawing pack that can be built from. In this stage we design out ambiguity and engage with specialists to make sure your home is buildable in the way you have envisaged. A thorough and comprehensive stage deliverable allows for a smoother journey on site, with less stress for you as the client.
Getting to RIBA Stage 5, 'Construction', is an exciting accomplishment and you should be equipped with all the tools you need from the earlier stages to progress on site. There are, of course, areas where you may want support or details that may need further clarity and we can be there for you throughout this process to keep you confident that everything is moving in the right direction.
This is one of the most tailored phases of the journey as we want to ensure we are adding value at every interaction. Depending on the type of build, we can offer architectural support, act as your agent (to help you with key decisions and act on your behalf where needed) and generally be there for you, as required, at critical stages.
You're in your new home, enjoying the final destination. Congratulations! Although we have now handed you the keys, it doesn't mean we have to say goodbye. We can create an aftercare service suited to your ongoing needs. This could be as simple as monthly check-in sessions to talk through any teething problems and control systems or it could be a longer term monitoring contract with maintenance, upgrades and further works planned. We want to know you are enjoying your new home as we intended, so this is an opportunity for us to take your feedback and apply it to future clients just like you!
