Our Services
Our Services Include:
1. Project Analysis
Asking simple questions to determine what problem we are trying to solve. Based on what we find, we'll put together a project brief which evaluates any existing project components such as architectural structures, geotechnical site conditions, services and location. We also include technical details such as assessment of building parameters, code and district planning regulations
2. Project Feasibility
Outlining your options and associated costs to achieve your project goals. This feasibility study report often includes basic drawings or sketches. It makes the beginning of your ongoing project information document.
3. Concept Design & Development Phase
Using the latest CAD and BIM modelling technology, we allow you to visualise your project. This includes an arrangement of spaces such as dimensions, shapes, number and types of spaces, and room layouts. If required for the project, we can also design, develop and evaluate multiple arrangements for efficiency and functional success.
4. Consents & Architectural Problem Solving
Managing the consent process includes the production of drawings and applications required to submit for resource and/or building consents. This can include presentations & negotiations with the council and other required parties.
