Turn a newly bought property into a clear design and permit route.

We help owners move from purchase excitement to measured scope, concept design, permit drawings and consultant coordination.

What this service is

Architecture guidance after buying a property, plot or unfinished shell.

This service is for owners who already bought, or are about to complete, and need a structured route from concept to permit rather than scattered advice.

New owners

Clients who need to understand what to do next after purchase.

Remote buyers

Owners who need English-speaking design coordination and reports.

Unfinished shells

Properties needing layout, permit and consultant clarity.

Plots and villas

Early-stage architecture after acquisition or due diligence.

What you get

A controlled path from purchased asset to permitted design package.

01

Concept design

Space planning, massing and styleboards aligned to the brief.

02

Permit drawings

Country-specific drawing sets for submissions and approvals.

03

BIM coordination

Clash-aware model logic to reduce surprises on site.

04

Consultant management

Surveyors, structural, MEP and energy inputs coordinated.

05

Client reporting

Milestone deliverables with clear decisions and timeline.

06

Next-stage planning

Tender, build or renovation route mapped after permits.

Process & timeline

From selected concept to coordinated technical package.

Scope depends on local permit rules, consultant responsibilities and whether the project is moving to tender or straight into construction documentation.

1

Design intake

Selected concept, survey, constraints, authority guidance and consultant status.

2

BIM setup

Model structure, drawing list, issue rhythm and coordination responsibilities.

3

Consultant alignment

Structural, MEP and energy inputs coordinated with architectural intent.

4

Permit / tender set

Drawings, schedules, specifications and issue revisions.

5

Clarifications

Tender questions, value engineering and controlled changes.

Fees

After-purchase fee structure.

Fees are shaped by property status, permit route, consultant requirements and how much design work is already complete.

Review / m2

Purchase-to-scope audit

Best for: A quick go / no-go concept for simple plots.

A compact review of documents, condition, constraints and next steps.

Included
  • Document review
  • Risk and decision notes
  • Next action list
  • Very rough CAPEX order of magnitude
  • One online review session up to 60 min
Not included

  • 3D massing or visuals
  • Consultant coordination or permit roadmap
Managed / m2

Consultant coordination

Best for: Investors and developers needing a mini-package for partners, banks or city officials.

Ongoing coordination through survey, structure, MEP, energy and permit responses.

Included
  • Consultant communication
  • Revision tracking
  • Milestone reports
  • Phasing and implementation sketch where relevant
  • 2-3 page concept memo for early conversations
  • Coordination outline for structure, MEP and landscape
Across Europe, concept and schematic design for villas and small hotels commonly ranges around EUR 15-60/m2 depending on scope and complexity. Final fees are fixed after brief review.

Why it matters

Clarity in the model is cheaper than improvisation on site.

BIM and technical coordination reduce unclear drawings, late consultant conflicts, avoidable RFIs and tender ambiguity.

What we need from you

Concept package, survey/topo, authority guidance, consultant contacts and target permit/tender route.

Deliverables

BIM model, drawing sets, schedules, specifications, consultant inputs and revision logs.

Value engineering

Alternatives can be reviewed without losing the core design intent.

Change control

Revisions are issued with clear drawing status and coordination impact.
