Need a layout that works in real life? Our architecture and design specialists focus on how spaces are used, not just how they look. With the right design, your building can flow better, function more efficiently, and adapt to future needs. These are architecture services built around people, as well as plans.
Every building has a job to do, and our architecture and design specialists focus on making sure it does that job well. We bring together practical design thinking and real-world experience for architecture services that are functional, buildable, and compliant. Through the years, we’ve built strong relationships across the sector and work closely with surveyors, project consultants, engineers, and planning professionals to keep everyone on track from day one. Planning Applications Planning permission can be a headache if the details aren’t spot on. With the right support from our architecture services, your application will move through the system without any interruptions. You’ll get drawings that meet local requirements, policy-aware planning statements, and advice that helps avoid expensive and time-consuming back-and-forth. Building Regulation Applications Building work only runs smoothly when the regulations are properly followed. With coordinated drawings and a strong application, you can avoid hold-ups and keep things moving. This aspect of our architecture services is built around accuracy, and our aim is to make sure your plans meet every requirement the first time around. Principal Designers for Building Regulations Staying compliant starts early. Appointing qualified architecture and design specialists as your Principal Designer means that safety, coordination, and legal responsibilities are built into the design stage. You stay protected, everyone knows where they stand, and potential issues get flagged before they cause disruption. Measured Building Surveys Outdated or inaccurate drawings can throw off an entire project. Measured surveys give you a reliable starting point with the detail needed to make confident decisions and accurate plans. As part of our wider architecture services, this gives your project the solid foundation it needs. Floorplan Creation Need a floorplan that’s more than a sketch? Professionally created plans support everything from legal work to layout changes. These drawings are scaled, site-measured, and clearly presented so you’ve got the confidence to move ahead with planning, refurbishment, or sale. It’s a smart first step in any design process. Mechanical & Electrical Design Design clashes and last-minute reroutes are much easier to avoid when M&E is integrated early. Our architecture services team makes sure systems are coordinated with structure and layout, and helps you save time, avoid rework, and build with fewer surprises along the way. Building Conservation Older buildings carry weight and meaning, and adapting them takes care. At BAS, our architecture and design specialists help you protect historic character while updating for safety, access, and sustainability. Get support that balances conservation with practicality, and meets all the right approvals without stalling progress. Architecture and Design Specialists
