Collaboration is key

Our experience in stakeholder engagement ensures that there is a fair balance in conflicting requirements, meeting their needs and making sure voices are heard. No one knows your business goals better than you, so it’s important we work together seamlessly on your project. A lot of good ideas come from a strong partnership between designer and client.

We have built strong and lasting relationships with our suppliers, contractors and fabricators who can advise us through the design process. Their specific knowledge and experience is vital in the detailed design stages to bring the best and most suitable outcome within the project boundaries.

Genuine intelligence

The digital world is becoming polluted with AI imagery of unrealistic designs and inaccurate information which can lead to poor decisions and increases risks.

We have been developing a strong list of trusted partners and sources that we can rely on. Our years of lived experience has armed us with a wealth of knowledge which we constantly develop and document so we can give reliable advice and results.

Thoughtful Creativity

Thinking beyond the surface, understanding how different materials create a brand, atmosphere or memory. Fuelled by knowledge and experience, creating designs that stand the tests of time and the evolution of businesses.

Our thoughtfully creative approach to space planning will ensure you can make the most from the space you have. With a deep understanding of your business and key requirements, we use lateral thinking to flip ideas on their head and suggest ideas, including the wildcards, that innovatively solve spatial problems.

Our designs are driven by your ambitions and requirements, with a considered approach and thoughtful creativity.

Efficient & Effective Results

We work in a very efficient way, meaning more of our time can be spent being creative. Our investments in advanced tools and customised workflows ensures checks are in place and nothing is forgotten.

We want to produce efficient results, that give you the best outcome for your space available, and money spent. Your work should not be impacted by poor design choices so we will ensure you have the best possible environment to exceed your goals.

Efficiency supports environmental goals and saves on costs by minimising waste and getting the best results from as little spend as possible. Our analysis ensures the perfect balance can be achieved.

Fast and sharp

We’ve invested heavily in advanced software and tools that allow us to capture, document and produce detailed information at a fast pace whilst maintaining a high level of accuracy.

Our survey tools quickly and accurately measure buildings, even when access is limited, minimising the risks of site tolerances. This is particularly useful for heritage sites and awkwardly shaped buildings that would be difficult to accurately survey with traditional methods. Our software provides a range of additional information that is helpful in quantifying the designs, helping you make more informed decisions and improved accuracy in early cost estimates.

Resilient

Despite being a small practice, we are able to work on larger projects with high values. Because of this, we currently hold Professional Indemnity insurance cover of £2m.

We have invested heavily in the tools we use to provide our service, in doing so we create a lot of data and also receive a lot of information from other people on the project. Because of this, we have  a robust data backup service. All of our email, calendars and project data is backed up four times a day to secure off-site servers in south London.

Beyond Compliant

Now more than ever, designers need to ensure they meet current regulations. Fire and escape are at the top of the list, making sure your building is safe and enjoyable. The building regulations are a legal minimum, not a target. We aim to exceed these requirements and in doing so rarely have to compromise to meet regulations.

We can act as Principal Designer for both CDM and Building Regulations making sure you remain compliant and are suitably advised. Our process ensures you are fully aware of your responsibilities and all the paperwork is in place.
