LODGES

Personal

We invest time building strong relationships with our clients. This allows us to gain an understanding of how they live and work so that we can design buildings that meet their unique and individual requirements.

​

Our design process is not about imposing an architectural style on a project but is instead driven by the constraints of the site and the lifestyles and attitudes of our clients. This approach allows us to create unique buildings which respond to their users and surroundings.

​

We pride ourselves on our flexibility, genuine approachability and dedication to every project no matter what the brief or budget.

Creative

Our commitment to good design and dedication to producing exciting and inspirational buildings is driven by a passion for creativity, innovation and problem solving.

​

We work in a range of media from hand drawn sketches to 3D computer images and physical models. This helps us to engage with our clients whilst allowing us to develop design concepts efficiently in order to guarantee a great value service.

​

Our goal is to deliver the highest quality design service in order to create buildings which exceed the expectations of our clients.

Professional

We are bound by the Codes of Professional Conduct of both the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) and the Architects Registration Board (ARB) and offer a highly professional service.

​

The guidelines of the Codes of Professional Conduct are in place to protect the interests of our clients and to ensure that we act with professional integrity at all times;

are honest and trustworthy; and carry out our work professionally and competently.

​

We provide our clients with great value for money and maximise the return on their investment by delivering a service that is professional, personal and creative.
