TTHS Needs and Options Review

Описание: THE PROBLEM

It’s not uncommon for people to know they want to do a building project, and have thought about it quite a bit –but just don’t know how best to start...

Or worse launch into an expensive design service without establishing a relationship or worse still not having carefully established the ground work for the project.

THE PROMISE

“A surgeon wouldn’t operate without a proper diagnosis so...”

The Needs and Options Review works in the same way. It will allow you to start an exploration designed to precisely understand your requirements and potential roadblocks and the gives:

• Findings and Recommendations
• A Plan to move forward
• A Timeline and Rough Order of Cost

THE PROCESS

We have developed this process through our years of experience specialising in residential projects and through
being called in to rescue clients who had found themselves in nightmare situations with other contractors or architects who had allow them to start design and construction work BEFORE they had fully done their research and homework and BEFORE they had critiqued their ideas.

The consequence of inadequate upfront research of needs and options is like building a house on bad foundations.

The foundations are the most important part of the whole house, because everything is built on top. It’s very expensive to change the foundations once you have started to build upwards. But its easy to change them if they are simply lines on a plan.

So...we spend a little more time on the research than most other practices who rush their clients into the design

When considering renovating your prime period property the high level Needs and Options Review with TTHS Architects is the first step before engaging with any design services.

Why?...
You will receive:
• A meeting to discuss your preliminary objectives for the project.
• Obtain a registered Architect’s opinion on the feasibility of your project - one who has specialised in the
specific type of project you are facing.
• Development of an outline brief that provides the ‘DNA’ for future work describing functions, uses, and
spaces required.
• Review of site options and identify regulatory issues and other potential constraints
• Review the planning viability of the project and your ideas.
• Discuss the look and feel of the scheme
• Identify potential solutions in outline form.
• Prepare a conceptual budget for the project outlining hard and soft costs
• Prepare a preliminary schedule for the project
• Production of report including the above

A surgeon wouldn’t operate without a proper diagnosis...our initial

Needs and Options Review works in the same way.

The Needs and Options Review starts a strategy designed to precisely understand your requirements, and then give findings and recommendations, and a plan to move forward with a timeline and rough order of cost to assist your budget.
