Design & build
A clear route from the first spatial idea to the final detail.
Begin with
the right brief.
Design and build brings the creative and delivery conversations closer together. The process depends on a clearly agreed scope, a reliable record of decisions and early coordination between the client, designers, building management and specialist trades.
Materials, mock-ups and samples help turn the design into a shared set of expectations. During delivery, changes should be documented with their cost and programme implications. The final stage should include inspections, an agreed snagging process and the information needed to operate the space.
