Project Management
Safeguarding Your Interest Every Step of The Way
At our core we believe exceptional design requires exceptional execution, which is
why client-side project management is intrinsic across all our services, a strength
that sets us distinctly apart from most architectural practices. We are proud to
project manage every single bespoke home we design, drawing on our blend of
practical, hands-on experience and creative flair to ensure your personal aspirations
remain at the absolute heart of the build from concept to completion.
Often we are also approached by client family offices or independent project
managers, and we enjoy a collaborative approach partnering with them to execute a
project for the client smoothly.
Strategy
Our strength lies in over 30 years of hands-on experience, giving us unparalleled knowledge required to guide your project from its very inception. With a wealth of experience in southwest London and the surrounding home counties, we truly understand family needs and the nuances of creating comfortable, modern homes. Working in parallel with the early stages of the RIBA Plan of Work we meticulously develop your client brief forming the best project and design team to execute your vision. Leading the process with composure, we conduct site assessments followed by negotiations and costing exercises, ensuring a robust strategy is in place from the outset. This professional rigor provides you with early security regarding both the legal framework and anticipated cost, setting a clear and confident path for the journey ahead.
Design
As we progress through the developed design and technical phases inconjunction with the RIBA Plan ofWork, our adept project management skills ensure your architectural vision remains uncompromised. We leverage our deep knowledge of the UK legislative framework and relationships with local authorities to smoothly navigate the complex planning landscape. We manage specialist consultants to integrate their technical component flawlessly in to the design. A fundamental part of our strategy during these stages is rigorous cost control and proactive negotiations with suppliers to protect your budget. We leverage our long-standing relationships with suppliers to negotiate the best prices and we pass on the benefits of our commercial discounts with them to our clients. Our extensive experience in technical detailing provides the absolute security that your future-proof home is engineered for both stunning aesthetics and practical family living.
Delivery
Executing the construction phases in line with the RIBA Plan of Work demands a disciplined strategy and unwavering strength in project oversight. We bring extensive knowledge of UK building contracts and the legal framework of the construction process to expertly oversee the tender process and lead critical negotiations with builders. Once on-site operations commence, our vast hands- on experience allows us to maintain composure amidst the daily pressures of a live build. By diligently managing the construction programme, administering the building contract, monitoring the build quality of the architectural and interior design, and closely tracking the final cost, we offer you complete peace of mind and security, guaranteeing that the high-quality home we deliver perfectly aligns with your modern lifestyle aspirations.
