Services

Environmentally conscious building design is becoming more and more important. Roots understands this, so from the very first sketches or conversations we consider the project’s environmental performance.

As Architectural and Environmental Designers we keep up-to-date with the latest technologies and best practices. We use our unique Energy Reports as a way of researching and communicating this knowledge to the client. These reports provide clear, considered and concise recommendations as to how the environmental systems of a property can be developed.

They are relevant to new or old buildings and can be commissioned from us independent of any design work. Please contact us for more information.

Roots encourages a collaborative and inclusive approach. We fully involve the Client with all design decisions remembering we are there to assist them in their project.

We present our ideas through a variety of media so they can be easily understood, interpreted and responded to. Our attention to detail and careful consideration of the Clients needs and wants are some of our greatest strengths.

Our aim is to create contemporary designs that seek to respect and integrate with the existing site.

A high degree of technical knowledge is required to successfully deliver a design and build project. Roots can deliver that knowledge.

As Architectural and Environmental Designers we ensure we are up-to-date with the latest technical advancements and requirements. We see it as our job to present the often complicated information to the client in a way that is precise, consice and easier to understand.

We understand that design and build projects can be extremely stressful. Complex legislation, programmes and project teams can make them difficult and time consuming to manage.

It is for this reason that Roots offers a full Project Management service. We can take on the responsibility of running the project, removing the daily burden from the Client. This role also serves to give the Client one point of contact and peace of mind.

We believe that our low overheads allow the practice to offer a service at a fair rate which will broaden the potential market towards people who may not normally employ an Architect or Engineer.

Our fees are drawn up specifically for each project after consultation with the Client. We present a detailed list of all relevant project tasks and the costs they will incur. This gives the Client the opportunity to review the fee and ensures there are no hidden charges. Please feel free to contact us for a free consultation and fee proposal.
