Creating Exceptional Hospitality Experiences
At Trevor Brown Architect Ltd, we are an architectural practice and interior design studio based in North London. Established by Trevor Brown in 2011, we specialise in the design of residential architecture, managing the construction process to ensure that our high-quality designs are fully executed to produce high-quality, affordable homes.
Our Expertise
With a strong emphasis on a collaborative approach, we take a holistic approach to each commission, understanding that a successful project is the seamless composition of the external building design and the spaces within. Our work is informed by the existing building, the client's taste and desire, and the coordination of everyday objects and beautiful things. We develop each project closely with our clients through an iterative process of design meetings, offering the benefit of an architectural eye alongside each client's personal style.
Services
We offer a range of services, from initial consultations to statutory consent applications, detailed design, and contract administration. Whether you are considering a strategic refurbishment project, sophisticated renovations and extensions, or something in between, please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss what we can offer. Initial consultations are normally free of charge.
How We Work
We begin by understanding the client's requirements and answering any questions they may have. This may involve exploring potential solutions, discussing project constraints, and outlining the steps required to complete the project. Once the brief is developed, we proceed to the outline design stage, where we present layout options and discuss how to proceed. Further investigation and consultation with specialist consultants may be necessary to address unforeseen issues or complex requirements.
Statutory Consent Applications
We also assist with statutory consent applications, submitting the relevant consents for the proposed work and liaising with the local authority throughout the process. This ensures compliance with building regulations and obtains the necessary permissions for construction to begin.
Detailed Design
Regardless of the level of detail required, we ensure that every project is thoroughly planned and executed. With the ability to discuss the appropriate level of detail to achieve the desired end result, we can craft designs that meet our clients' precise visions.
Tender Documents and Contract Administration
We also prepare tenders for contractors and assist with contract administration, ensuring that building works are completed smoothly, on time, and within budget. If needed, we can act as the Contract Administrator, providing oversight and guidance throughout the construction process.
Client-Centric Approach
Our approach is centered around understanding each client's unique needs and delivering solutions that meet their specific requirements. By taking the time to understand our clients' goals and desires, we strive to create spaces and interiors that are tailored to their needs, enjoyable to use, and sophisticated additions to the original building.
