How Our Approved Panel Of Members Can Help
There are some major differences between commercial architecture in Devon and residential architecture, so it is important to have an understanding of both to be successful. Commercial buildings often have many different purposes and contain many different people at one time, this can all affect the overall design of the building. Commercial buildings often feature additions that residential buildings do not, such as elevators and escalators, cafeterias, meeting rooms, storerooms and public bathrooms. To put it simply commercial buildings and commercial architecture projects are usually larger than residential ones. As commercial architects in Devon, our members projects include shops, banks, gyms, industrial & agricultural units, schools, restaurants and offices.
Our approved panbel of commercial architects provide a personalised scope of service from start to finish, from strategic briefs, through the design concepts, construction and handover, supporting you at every stage. Our architects collaborate with you and the design team to develop designs, manage the planning process, review legal and building control requirements and oversee construction.
Our members test various functional and sustainable solutions – whilst they’re on paper before the building process starts. It is vital to explore creative options at the design stage, as changes to a project, whilst a builder is on-site, can be very expensive!
