Starting Your Project

As we initiate your design journey, understanding the breadth of your project and its implications on costs and timelines is paramount.

Defining Your Project:

We begin by understanding the nature of your project. Whether it involves a blend of our services or focuses on a specific aspect, our goal is to comprehend your aspirations and project dynamics.

Step 1: Initial Conversation

Our first discussion revolves around your property, garden, and your aspirations. This 30-minute video or phone call allows us to align with your timeline and budget, and it’s entirely complimentary.

Step 2: On-site Consultation

Prior to meeting at your location, we conduct preliminary research on your property details. During this consultation, we delve deeper into local planning context, constraints, and realistic timeframes. If an on-site visit isn't feasible, a scheduled 1-hour video call serves as an alternative.

Step 3: Exploring Feasibility

The Feasibility Study is a crucial step to ascertain the scale, scope, risks, and potential costs of your project. It’s an essential exercise ensuring informed decisions before delving into an extensive design process. It involves:

  • Detailed desktop property review

  • Basic site analysis

  • 1 to 2-hour on-site consultation discussing initial design aspirations

  • Sketch layout plans for each proposed floor (subject to survey or estate agent drawings)

Our design fees and services are tailored to suit the project's size and complexity; feel free to reach out for more details.

Next Steps:

Once the Feasibility Study is completed, you'll have a comprehensive understanding of your project's scope aligned with your initial budget.

This clarity allows us to set out the overall project fee, varying according to the project's complexity.
