Our design and construction process has been developed over more than 20 years, alongside long-standing relationships with architects, designers and engineers. This network allows us to coordinate a comprehensive service around each client's needs and tastes. We consider the particular expertise a project needs, from mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineering to an architect's design aesthetic. Working together from the outset helps align decisions, simplify coordination and identify opportunities for cost efficiency.

A shared starting point for design and construction

A useful project brief describes the property, the spaces you need and the architectural character you have in mind. Include any drawings already prepared, your reference images and the decisions still open. Let us know if you are already working with an architect, interior designer or engineer so that the conversation reflects your existing team.

Clarify the scope and responsibilities

Ask which design disciplines your project needs, who would coordinate them and what is included in the proposed construction scope. Discuss how drawings, materials and changes would be reviewed, along with budget expectations and scheduling priorities. The responsibilities and services for your project should be clear before you decide how to proceed.
