ADVICE FROM OUR ARCHITECTS | COMMON ARCHITECTURAL QUESTIONS
Is it worth using an architect?
“Architects combine both construction knowledge and design and can add significant value to a project by designing within complex shaped sites and repurposing redundant buildings, resolving complex circulation problems so that a project works more efficiently.”
How To Get The Most Out Of An Architect?
“‘To get the most out of your architect you should be as open-minded as reasonably possible in terms of exploring ideas and opportunities. You should be realistic about budget and also about the restrictions imposed by the planning system. You should also provide as much information about the building or site with regards to hidden services, known faults, legal covenants and difficult neighbours(!)’”
What should I look for when appointing an architect?
“Find some examples of their work that you like. Look for someone who is on the same wavelength as you, who is a good listener and understands your requirements well. For Example, if you feel that creating a sustainable building to help the environment is important, find out if this is something that is also important to them. Check if they are a qualified Architect via the ARB Website.”
