Architectural Design in Bristol Tailored to Your Needs
The Design Journey
Free Initial Consultation
I offer a free initial meeting where we can discuss your project and design ideas, and evaluate feasibility from a planning and construction perspective. I will go over all the stages your project will follow and then send you a detailed quote, showing all costs, including any local authority charges.
Measured Survey
As part of my architectural design services in Bristol, once we have agreed on the project details and my terms of appointment, I conduct a laser-measured survey of your property to create detailed existing drawings. These form the foundation for the design development and planning stages that follow.
Design Drawings
Using the existing drawings as a base, I will prepare creative design plans that explore a range of options based on your initial brief. This stage is where ideas take shape, combining functionality with thoughtful architectural design. 3D visualisations are included to help you clearly picture the finished space.
Planning Application
Once the design has been finalised, I will submit a Full Planning Permission or Lawful Development Certificate application on your behalf. The submission includes all required existing and proposed drawings, along with the necessary supporting documentation.
I will manage the process from start to finish — submitting the application, monitoring its progress, and responding to any queries from the Local Authority to ensure a smooth approval.
Building regulations
Once planning approval has been granted, I will prepare a detailed set of construction drawings showing all technical specifications, materials, and construction details. These are then submitted for Building Regulations approval to the Local Authority. Once approved, your builder can use these drawings to carry out the work with confidence, ensuring full compliance and a high standard of construction.
