Architectural Design

Architecture is a unique blend of art and technology, each playing a vital role in realising your dream home. At ArchDezine, we pride ourselves in providing you high quality professional services through well qualified and experienced professionals complemented with use of latest technological tools.

We understand that planning a new build, a new extension, a loft or a garage conversion, can be time consuming. It requires an understanding of by-laws, regulations, process and material. We work with you through the entire process, from ideas to realisation to help you bring your ideas to life.

Initial Design Consultation

An initial design consultation with ArchDezine is a free of charge service. This is the crucial first step in realising your dream and creating your perfect home. We’ll come and listen to your ideas, as we know you’ll often have a very clear and well thought-out plan in your mind. It’s then our job to turn these initial ideas in to a reality with you and hopefully give you a few ideas you hadn’t considered along the way. Once we’ve fully understood what it is you want to achieve, we will forward a firm and fixed-price quotation to you along with a summary of what we’d discussed.


Design Concepts


Our architectural designers then hit the electronic drawing board and come up with multiple designs ideas. We meet again to present and discuss these designs with you and finalise one of them, with amendment as may be required.

    
Architectural Drawings

Once the designs are finalised, our architectural CAD technicians then turn the designs in to full architectural drawings along with front, rear and side elevations. Before submitting the final drawings to the Local Planning Authority (LPA), we send electronic copies to you for your review and approvals. 


Submission and Approvals


Most new buildings or major changes to existing buildings or to the local environment need consent - known as planning permission. Without a planning system everyone could construct buildings or use land in any way they wanted, no matter what effect this would have on other people who live and work in their area.

Your local planning authority is responsible for deciding whether a development - anything from an extension on a house to a new shopping centre - should go ahead 


The drawings approved by you are then submitted to LPA by ArchDezine. We maintain a constant liaison with the Planning Officer, providing them with any further details that they may ask for or making amendments to the drawings if the PO requests. We take complete responsibility till a decision is made by the LPA.


3D Visualisation

Walkthroughs in 3D is an excellent way to visualise your dream in virtual reality. We use the latest in technology to produce these 3D visualisations and demonstrate them to you through portable devices. This is an optional service.

Building Regulations


While LPA is the approving authority from a planning perspective, Building Control department of the local council deals with the building regulations. Building regulations set the construction standard for design and building work and apply to most new buildings and many alterations to existing properties. Building regulation rules are in place to ensure health and safety in or around buildings. Most building and development projects will require a set of detailed architectural drawings and specification which proves that the construction will comply to UK building regulations. The drawings and specification can also be used by a builder to ensure that the building work is progressing correctly.


ArchDezine can provide full building regulations drawings, structural calculations and construction specification.


Builder Network


We can recommend a number of specialised experienced builders, some of them specialised in specific areas, such as loft conversion.
