Approach

Design Expertise

DV Architects brings more than 50 years of collective design expertise to each brief, along with a fresh and enthusiastic consideration.

In order to create an exemplary space, we first establish what is most important to the client, the physical space and the people who will be using it. Through this process, our clients gain modern concepts with customer appeal.

All environment and resource factors are considered during the design and planning stage including lighting, materials, finishes, colours, textures and structural angles to fit the end purpose in every aspect. Through intelligent use of light, material and space, we build a connection between your customers and their environment.

We match our original thinking and venue design quality with attention to detail and a commitment to creating interior spaces that work.

We apply ourselves completely to our clients’ goals, testing a range of possible solutions from the outset using illustrations, sketches and models.

Our team of interior design specialists has extensive experience, from contemporary bars and nightclubs to heritage and character restaurants.

Ideas start life in sketches and develop into precise 3D concept drawing visuals and presentation boards. Our 3D computer software produces photorealistic concept designs with precise measurement and accuracy.

Strategic Thinking

We address each client’s individual requirements with the appropriate expertise to achieve the best result. We draw on our experience in hospitality, leisure, commercial and heritage buildings to create designs that work aesthetically and provide a strong financial return.

Projects are managed effectively and efficiently, with a focus on client satisfaction. Most of our work is repeat business.

The most difficult challenges often lead to the most exciting results. We pride ourselves on our creativity in converting apparently awkward and inappropriate sites into impressive operations.

Based on our knowledge and experience, we can also offer guidance, on whether a development idea works.

We work closely with clients in producing innovative concept designs for future investment and tender opportunities. With strict requirements and guidelines, presenting a concept design can often tilt projects being awarded in your favour.

Our clients use our innovative concepts to support their bids for future investment and tender opportunities. In many cases, presenting a well thought through design has led to competitive projects being awarded in our clients’ favour.

Project Management

Our starting point for any project is to understand the required outcomes for the project and the aspirations of our client. We go above and beyond the brief and help our clients to realise what they need. Often this is something slightly different to the initial brief.

When a new project is briefed in, we research and prepare a structured architect’s feasibility study and budget-cost report. To help you make informed decisions based on your objectives and resources and to assess the final project outcome, our reports include proposed layout designs and sample presentation boards.

From those initial planning and design development stages, our clients usually ask us to take on complete project management, to site and through to completion of the refurbishment.

We manage all costs, lead times, contractors, suppliers and fabricators to ensure close work together as a team and the highest standards of work.

We are members of the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) and, as such, offer detailed architectural drawings for corporate tender applications and site construction. We manage on-site surveys, buyer and seller liaison, and ongoing evaluation to keep projects on track and within approval parameters, always to the highest standard of quality.

On behalf of our clients, we handle all negotiations, submissions and correspondence with planning applications, building regulations, gaming and liquor licensing, listed building consents, conservation area restrictions, environmental issues and appeals to the Department of Energy (DOE).

 Safety is built into every project. Our understanding of Construction Design & Management (CDM) health and safety and fire safety gives our clients total peace of mind.

We have the knowledge, experience and contacts to save you time, cost and unnecessary headaches.
