The 1,2,3 Approach To Residential Architecture
We believe that often the residential architectural process and the way it is described to clients gets overcomplicated, so at Western we like to keep things simple. Simple contracts, clear fixed pricing and solid advice. The 1,2,3 approach essentially involves the feasibility (stage 1) up to planning permission, the technical (stage 2) up to construction and the build (stage 3). Our services will always fall into one of these key stages and this will be mapped out in your free consultation and quotation. Allowing you to appropriately budget as we only invoice you once work has been carried out in the various stages. By designing our quotations in a simple menu style system, you only pay for what you use and none of what you don’t. It also removes any ambiguity of a lump sum contract or the complications of a percentage of project cost-based quotation.
Our team of skilled design professionals in Bath, Bristol and Frome include several architectural technologists, architects, conservation specialists, chartered surveyors and a planning coordinator. We aim to provide comprehensive design solutions for the domestic and commercial market.
We provide a distinctly different approach to many other architects and surveyors, utilising our unique multidisciplinary approach we are able to offer our clients a broad range of services throughout their project such as: Initial scheme designs for planning applications in Bath, feasibility studies, Listed Building applications, Building Regulations packages and specifications, planning coordination and 3d modelling. Our company has been designing buildings for over ten years, and our staff have a combined construction experience that exceeds a century.
Our technical knowledge is unparalleled, most architects provide little advice when it comes to the technical stages regarding residential architecture, and the structure of a building leaving most of the structural specification to an engineer. At Western we specify most of the timber elements of a building within our fixed price limiting the cost of the engineering at a later stage. This provides real value to our residential clients and goes above and beyond most architecture practices specifications.
We pride ourselves on an excellent first-time planning application pass rate for domestic extensions and remodelling works.
