Step by step, milestones, …our process
Our practice will lead you through all RIBA stages of work. The way towards the realisation of an architecture project can be best described as a creative but complex adminstrative and legal process that involves our client’s building budget and the planet’s resources. Architecture touches on social norms, health and safety and property rights. The discipline is embedded in the construction industry but stands out because of its ability to shape the physical presence of our neighbourhoods, cities and the the life of every individual. Unlike other specialised technologies it involves every aspect of human life, people’s imagination and everbody’s creativity.
“Architecture reflects the many layers of our human existence.”
Alexander Smaga, Head of AS Architects

Strategy
After you have informed us in detail of the type, scope, location and purpose we help you to define the brief. Each of our client’ is unique and so is each project. We conduct a preliminary study and support your decision-making through cost-saving proposals towards a sustainable architecture solution whether it is a standard project or a bespoke design.
02
Design
Once we know the brief and the scope and have elaborated the timeline as well as formulated the room schedule we carry the conceptual design to the next step to a fully developed design. We help and support you to obtain planning consent and carry out technical design to secure the full realisation of your project.

Execution
We are happy to prepare the tender documents and lead or assist the design tendering process, monitor the construction works and administrate the building contract. We monitor the works to make sure they are going according to plan. We also offer construction management for bespoke projects.
