ARCHITECTURE

Picture
Bondstones are a RICS regulated practice - however we break the mould compared to other surveying practices - we employ a fantastic architectural team to deliver bespoke design and project management services along side our specialist rural planning and surveying team.

Collectively we focus on providing high quality 'deliverable' architecture - designed to meet our clients needs - rather than to satisfy an over-inflated designer ego!

While the firm is not a traditional 'Architects Practice' per se (a protected title) our hugely talented architectural team comprises a range of Chartered Architects, Consultant Architectural Technologists, Surveyors and specialist Architectural technicians - with this range of ability and experience on tap - we provide a suite of services akin to those offered by any 'traditional' architects' practice - but with one major difference:  We offer a far broader range of professional services under one roof - with almost every facet of architecture and planning covered within a single dedicated office.

Aside from having extensive planning and design expertise in house - we also tend to differ from typical 'architects' in the style of work we undertake.  We tend to work for rural clients and typically on projects involving existing structures or new buildings requiring complimentary design styles - rather than providing outlandish or ethereal 'designs in principal' as is so often the case.

Our unique blend of pragmatic, empathetic and sympathetic design provides an unbeatable quality of service - which we believe is bettered by none.

Design Time
Over the years we have seen and done it all (well, most of it!).  From simple building extensions to complex barn conversions, fishing huts to farm houses and holiday parks to boutique hotels...

We focus our attention on mid-scale, one-off high quality projects - with an emphasis on the design of 'fit for purpose' buildings which are able to be built 'as drawn'. 

It's a shocking fact that many 'agents', 'designers', 'architects', etc, will submit planning applications that cannot actually be built without substantial re-design (particularly with reference to building regulations compliance - or other important legislation)...  

At Bondstones we focus our energy not only into great architectural design, but also into meeting the legislative requirements that will ensure our proposals can be built without alteration.

We have increasingly varied experience across multiple projects, but have notable experience in delivering successful;

  • 'Class Q' Agriculture to C3 Dwelling Conversions
  • Fallback Dwellings
  • Listed Building Alterations, conversions and extensions
  • Domestic refurbishments & substantial revisions
  • Domestic new-build
  • Commercial projects - new build and complete refurbishment
  • Bespoke and unique extensions to all types of buildings
  • Public Buildings
  • Barn Conversions
  • Agricultural complexes
  • Hi-Throughput Anerobic Bio-digesters (!)
  • Bespoke Garden Buildings and Shepherds Huts
  • Care Home & Extra Care Unit developments

​Every client will receive first class design which follows the brief and ensures that planning permission should be granted without complication. We are always looking to push the boundaries of design - to create truly unique properties which stand out from the crowd.
