How would you like to get in touch?
I offer a few options - the most common is a FREE call - where we have a brief chat about your project for about 15-20 minutes and decide what your next best step is.
If you already have a design and a great designer and would like to go straight to requesting a price for a 3d model + visuals, REQUEST PRICE HERE
Alternatively, feel free to book an online consultation if you are further a field in Scotland, there is an amazing amount of creativity that can be shared together over the power of online communication, that can help you know what your next best step is.
MY ARCHITECTURAL + DESIGN ADVICE IS UNBIASED WITH NO OBLIGATION
15 minute phone call. Get to know me better and get some quick answers as to whether The Design Bothy suits your needs. We'll chat about what areas of architecture and design I specialise in, what happens at a site visit, what worries you may have about the design process or your project and of course, what you are most excited about.
This is a 60 minute design consultation (either via phone or a video call) designed to give you access to design advice and guidance. Use this service if you are looking for design advice or a second opinion on a specific home problem and want to chat directly with an impartial architectural designer. This is a useful service if you are thinking about altering the layout of your home and don't know where to start, or are looking to brainstorm some ideas on a potential re-design of your home and are looking for more design knowledge. Maybe you have an idea but are not sure whether it's got potential. Or possibly you are in the middle of some renovations and can't reach a design agreement with your partner. This service gives you access to 60 minutes of design insights that you can use as a sounding board for your ideas / vision.
This design service is where we meet at your home and spend around 90 minutes together. We discuss your current home and analyse what isn't working for you, how your home isn't yet able to allow you to live the way you want to live or isn't working spatially or making best use of space. We brainstorm early stage ideas + typical design solutions, with the aim of giving you more insight into realistic redesign options for your home, so you can maximise its potential. This gets summarised in a report for you. After this site visit, if you would like to work together further, to develop your design concept, then a transparent design fee will be available tailored to the report and your specific projects needs.
For more information or insight into why you would consider a home assessment - check out my blog post HOME ASSESSMENT: WHAT'S THE POINT?
