Owners testing development potential before committing to full design.
Concept & Schematic Design
Architectural concept design before detailed decisions.
We turn site constraints, use cases, spatial ideas and visual direction into a clear concept package for the next design or investment decision.

What this service is
Early-stage architecture that turns a brief into clear options before technical design locks the project down.
We develop space plans, massing, facade direction and a coherent schematic package so the selected concept can move toward permits, consultants and budget alignment.
Private villas
Clients who need layout, views, pool, access and budget logic before the project becomes emotional.
Developers
Small hotels, apartments and residential schemes that need investor-ready clarity.
Remote investors
Clients who need visual options and a structured way to compare directions online.
What you get
Enough design to make the big decisions while change is still inexpensive.
Site analysis
Access, orientation, privacy, topography, utilities and constraints.
Space planning
Room program, adjacencies, circulation, storage and service logic.
Massing direction
Volumes, heights, facade intent, proportions and key materials.
2-3 options
Side-by-side plans and massing with pros, cons and area schedules.
Budget range
Order-of-magnitude CAPEX with the main cost drivers highlighted.
Permit roadmap
Drawings, consultants and timeline needed for the next stage.
Process & timeline
From brief to a selected schematic direction.
The parent page frames this as the bridge between feasibility and BIM/permit drawings: options first, then one refined package.
Brief and data
Goals, constraints, survey or topo if available, photos and inspiration.
Concept options
Two or three alternatives covering plan logic, massing and facade direction.
Review and choose
Workshop to compare tradeoffs, budget and preferred direction.
Schematic package
Refined plans, key sections, area table, styleboard and budget range.
Next stage
Fixed proposal for BIM, permit drawings and consultant coordination.
Fees
Our Concept & Schematic Design fees.
Production publishes three concept packages. The new page keeps that pricing table readable and separates inclusions from exclusions.
EUR 5
/ m2
Essential Concept
Best for: A quick go / no-go concept for simple plots.
A very lean early decision tool below typical market pricing.
Included
- One layout concept: plans only
- Basic site fit and orientation
- Approximate GIA / NSA areas
- Very rough CAPEX order of magnitude
- One online review session up to 60 min
Not included
- Alternative options
- 3D massing or visuals
- Consultant coordination or permit roadmap
EUR 30
/ m2
Standard Concept & Schematic
Best for: Private clients and small developers moving toward permits without over-investing.
The main concept route with options, schematic refinement and budget visibility.
Included
- Two developed layout options
- Plans plus key sections
- Site strategy for access, parking, levels and orientation
- Simple 3D massing views for the preferred option
- Area schedules by function
- Preliminary CAPEX range and permit roadmap
- Two online review sessions up to 90 min
EUR 60
/ m2
Investor Concept Pack
Best for: Investors and developers needing a mini-package for partners, banks or city officials.
A more complete concept package with extra refinement and investor-ready documentation.
Included
- Additional refinement loop for the preferred option
- More detailed CAPEX breakdown
- Simple financial model inputs
- 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
Most expensive redesigns start as unclear early decisions.
Concept and schematic design lets you test scenarios, compare capacity and align everyone around one picture before detailed documentation begins.
What we need from you
Plot address, survey if available, target use, rough size, rooms, style references and constraints.
Deliverables
Concept options deck, schematic set, outline spec, area logic, budget range and permit roadmap.
Decision value
The work helps avoid sunk cost, weak options and late-stage consultant conflict.
Next stage
BIM, permit drawings and consultant coordination can continue from the selected concept.
