Our approach —

Client liaison is paramount, and each project has a dedicated Project Director & Project Architect throughout. We suggest that each appointment is drafted to the specific needs of a project following an initial appointment with us. We can help source suitable specialist consultants for planning, structure, 3D modelling and cost management – if or when your project requires it.

Your Architect’s role goes beyond just design and offers guidance throughout the process on all aspects of the build, alleviating the need to deal with consultants and contractors daily. As a result, the client can enjoy the process rather than be overwhelmed by it, and whether the client chooses to be heavily involved or not, our site reports enable them to track and comment on progress.

Once on site, Resident’s established relationship with contractors ensures smooth project delivery, and the practice is particularly proud of its track record in designing and delivering projects on time and on budget.

We work closely with developers and private clients on a variety of commercial and residential projects, from brief through to build. Our portfolio includes a diverse range of projects, including new-builds with difficult planning and sustainability targets, refurbished listed properties, and interior fit-outs of commercial spaces.

Regardless of scale and project type, Resident uses considered detailed design to create places that reflect the client’s lifestyle and personality, using constraints such as planning and budget as an opportunity to create spaces that are an expression of what matters most to them.

We are committed to represent a client through to the completion of the project, protecting their interests and maintaining design quality during the construction period. As professionals, we are also qualified to act as impartial contract administrators, providing a conduit for discussions and negotiations between clients and contractors.

Our strong collaborative culture, fervent investment in our employees and consistent annual profit-sharing have all been key aspects of the way we run our practice. Every single member of the team plays an important role in the business, resulting in a democratic workplace where everyone’s opinions matter, regardless of role or seniority. We have always been openly proud of our high staff retention, with the majority of our employees having trained up within the practice to become the experienced Architects and Designers they are today; collectively delivering an exceptional quality of service to our clients.
