Architectural Services
We prepare urban development plans and designs necessary for property development and preparation for future construction. This service is suitable for landowners, investors, and clients who want to understand what type of building can be realized on a specific property.
We assist with detailed development plans, building plans, and regulation and building plans, as well as with the analysis of zoning, building parameters, height, density, FAR (Floor Area Ratio), landscaping, setbacks, and restrictions.
Property research before purchase or investment
Before purchasing, designing, or investing, it's crucial to understand what a property truly allows. A plot might seem suitable for a house, residential building, warehouse, office, or commercial facility, but its potential depends on the zoning, access, infrastructure, easements, development parameters, and specific restrictions.
We conduct preliminary property analyses to assess development potential — intended use, access, parameters, possible function, approximate building volume, and potential risks.
Architectural Design of Single-Family Homes
We develop individual architectural designs for houses and vacation homes. We focus on the functional layout, connection to the yard, orientation, facade appearance, building volume, and the overall concept. The project considers the client's needs, site specifics, budget, and regulatory requirements.
Residential Buildings, Apartment Blocks, and Small Complexes
We design residential buildings, apartment blocks, and small residential complexes, striving for a balance between functionality, regulations, market logic, architectural vision, and optimal property utilization. These projects require careful analysis of layouts, parking, access, common areas, facade design, and feasibility.
Public, Commercial, and Office Buildings
We develop architectural solutions for offices, shops, restaurants, showrooms, service, and public facilities. For these projects, we align the architecture with the activity, pedestrian flow, technical requirements, brand, and the intended use of the space.
Industrial, Warehouse, and Production Buildings
We design warehouse, logistics, production, and industrial buildings, including administrative sections, service areas, and functional layouts. For industrial facilities, we focus on process organization, access, loading/unloading zones, pedestrian and vehicle traffic, potential for future expansion, and the specific technical requirements of the activity.
Alterations, Additions, Extensions, and Change of Use
We assist with projects involving changes to existing buildings and premises — alterations, extensions, additions, facade modifications, change of use, or adapting a property to new requirements. We begin by analyzing the existing condition, limitations, and possibilities, then develop an architectural concept and the necessary project documentation.
Investment Projects for Building Permits
We prepare the architectural part of investment projects for approval and building permits. We work in coordination with other project disciplines to ensure the project is technically clear, coordinated, and ready for subsequent stages.
