Residential Architectural Designer

People and Housing go hand in hand with one another, where you will
find people, youll find housing, and vice versa. Understanding the
unbreakable bond between these two pillars is key to ensuring a
successful architectural project. It is the role of the residential
architectural designer to ensure that this fundamental aspect is
maintained throughout every stage of the process.

What is a Residential Architectural Designer?

It
may seem obvious, but we are asked this all the time, it can be quite a
difficult question to answer because the nature of our work is that the
deliverables such as drawings for planning permission or for building
control submission can look similar to other practises. A residential architectural designer is
in the simplest terms an architectural designer that specializes in
residential projects. They have a clear understanding of what makes
residential design effective and how to ensure that a clients brief is
maximised whilst also ensuring that the project remains within a
proposed budget. Similar to an architectural designer they will produce
all drawings required for your residential project whilst also handling
all the aspects in between such as planning submissions and liaising
with other third-party professionals. What sets an architectural
designer apart from a residential architectural designer is that they
know the exact processes and constraints that will be applied to your
project externally from your local authority or building control officer
and blend this with a level of experience and knowledge of residential
design that will allow your project to maximise its potential.

The Stages of Working with an Architectural Designer

Below
is a very broad breakdown of the stages that will be involved with a
potential project and how your architectural designer will guide you
through this. More information can be found on our process page, but it
is important to understand that not every project is the same, at times
certain aspects of the process are not required or additional stages may
need to be incorporated. For more information we would always recommend
giving us a call where our team of Chartered Architectural
Technologists and Architectural Designers can discuss your potential
project with you.
