Architectural Design Projects

Architectural design projects

This archive brings together selected AC Design Solution projects where architectural design formed part of the service delivered. These projects show how existing buildings can be altered, extended and improved through careful design, planning and technical coordination.

Architectural design work can include early concept layouts, planning drawings, extension design, internal reconfiguration, design development and coordination with structural or technical requirements. Each project needs to respond to the existing property, the client brief, planning context, neighbouring properties and the practical requirements of construction.

For homeowners and clients planning similar work, our architectural services cover early design advice, planning drawings, extension design and technical coordination for residential and commercial projects.

Design, planning and drawing coordination

Architectural design projects often begin with understanding how the existing building works and how the layout can be improved. This may involve rear extensions, loft conversions, internal alterations, new openings, improved circulation, better daylight or stronger connections to the garden.

Where a clear drawing package is required, our house extension drawings service supports planning submissions, permitted development checks, design development and consultant coordination.

For ground-floor extension projects, our single storey extension service explains how rear, side and wraparound extensions can be developed through the design and planning process.

Technical design and project coordination

As projects move beyond early design and planning, they often require technical information for building control and construction. Our building regulation drawings help develop the detail needed for approval, coordination and site delivery.

Where structural changes are involved, architectural design needs to work alongside engineering input. Our structural drawings and calculations service supports projects involving steel beams, new openings, altered walls, roof works or wider structural changes.

Where works affect a shared wall, boundary, excavation zone or neighbouring structure, our party wall surveying support can help clients understand notices, procedures and neighbour-related issues.
