A common myth I hear is that architects cost too much. We’re all feeling the pinch at the moment right?
In the short term we can save you money by preventing costly mistakes during the design and construction process. In the long run we can add significant value to your project.
We’re actually a low percentage of an overall build cost. 5-15% is normal. Fees vary depending on many factors such as design complexity and location.
We’ll plan and organise spaces more efficiently maximizing the potential of a building, select appropriate materials, and incorporate low-energy design - reducing your energy bills.
We’re also experts in regulations so you don’t need to be. We take the stress away and make sure everything designed is compliant.
A well-designed project avoids common and costly pitfalls of a poorly designed or rushed project.
If you’re thinking about a project reach out. Our free consultations are always relaxed, two-way conversations to answer any questions you have.
