Building designs and drawings for commercial and residential properties

If you need a place to work which will allow you to be inspired and be productive or if you need a home which will facilitate your family life, playing, learning, eating, sleeping and more, then the chances are you'd want your space designed by a professional designer.

Building designers are responsible for gathering a full brief from their client first. What is the building? Who is it for? What will they use it for? What facilities will they need? What regulations must be followed? All these questions and more will be considered before a designer will begin putting ideas to paper.

A designer will most likely be involved in a project from initial client introduction, through conceptualisation, project design,  planning, budget and oversight and right through to completion and approval. Alongside other experienced commercial building professionals, such as building surveyors, project managers and contract administrators, they will oversee the successful delivery of a building contract to the agreed schedule and on budget.

In order to produce drawings and plans for the project, the building designer may also need to consult with structural engineers, planners, interior and/or landscape designers to provide a full set of plans for client approval. 

The plans for the project will be drawn up by the designer and can include information on:

• The structure and materials
• Heating and/or ventilation
• Electrical, plumbing and communications
• Exterior landscaping
• Interior fixtures and facilities
