At this stage we will prepare conceptual design proposals. These may be presented in a variety of formats and mediums including sketches, CAD drawings, physical models, or 3 dimensional CAD models. At this stage the design will not be detailed or fixed. Often a number of concept design options will be produced for consideration by the client. This part of the project is normally iterative and workshops or design meetings are held with the client to discuss the concept proposals.

We will discuss the potential for the inclusion of green technologies and sustainable construction methodologies.
If a cost consultant/ QS has not been appointed by the client to provide an initial cost plan, we can assist by obtaining outline costs for the concept proposals from contractors within our supply chain.

The preferred concept design is signed off by the client at the end of this stage, and the ‘Final Brief’ is defined.
