Practice Philosophy
The whole philosophy of our practice is based upon a quality of service to our clients. We adhere to this ethos consistently across our whole body of work, from the smallest job to the practice’s larger work on public and commercial buildings.
At the heart of our business is high-quality design. We form a design team for each project, under the personal direction of the designated project architect who will take ownership of the project from inception to completion. Design teams are selected based on their experience and expertise in the type of project in hand. Practice principal, Declan McCabe, has an overview of all work produced by the firm.
We believe in developing several design options for each project, and subjecting them to rigorous assessment to determine the optimum design solution. We also have a number of staff with specialist skills, who are brought in to projects at the appropriate stage to assist in this evaluation.
We are accustomed to acting as design leader for projects, collaborating with leading engineers, cost consultants and other specialists as required. We have developed a range of design-management skills to ensure that the design process is efficient, and projects are completed on time.
We believe that our work successfully balances imagination and creativity with functionality, commercial awareness, and construction expertise. Our goal is to produce buildings that lift the spirits and meet our clients’ aspirations in every way.
