Listen

  • To achieve alignment on cost and design from the outset, we begin by attentively listening to your ideas and needs. This understanding lays the groundwork for a project that truly reflects your aspirations and functional requirements, forming the foundation of our bespoke building process.

Building Information Modelling software

Budget

  • We design all projects in 3D using Building Information Modelling (BIM) software. We’ve linked this to our cost database which we built from trade suppliers. As we draw your designs they are automatically priced. We are unique in the fact that we link pricing with design from the outset.

Collaborate

  • Collaboration is central to our process. We engage in an iterative process with you, blending your ideas with ours to realise a shared vision. This partnership is integral, ensuring the final product resonates with your personal style, your everyday needs and your budget.

Working on planning permission

Planning

  • Our planning phase is a comprehensive journey through design, and we have a team of experienced architects that understand how to navigate the planning system. It's a detailed process where collaborative ideas are transformed into feasible, budget-aligned plans.

Dust architects and builders collaborate on the build

Build

  • In combining design and construction, our unique approach guarantees cost and start times, eliminating wasted tenders. Our architects and construction professionals work seamlessly together to deliver products of exceptional quality. We focus on producing carefully crafted, cost-conscious buildings.

Handover to clients after completion

Handover

  • The handover is just the beginning of our commitment. We offer a standard three month snagging period and a six year warranty on major structural defects. Our dedication extends beyond the handover, ensuring any issues are swiftly resolved, highlighting our commitment to quality and client satisfaction.

“Design, delivery and construction should be seamless … it’s the gaps between them that give rise to the problems …
