Construction that protects the design intent
Construction is an extension of our design process. We coordinate people, information and execution so what is designed is what gets built.
Who this is for
- Clients who want one accountable team across design and delivery.
- Projects where time, cost, quality and technical coordination must be visible.
- Architecture whose material and spatial intent should survive the move to site.
What we deliver
Scope, programme, procurement strategy, cost alignment and construction planning.
Consultants, contractors, suppliers and site activities aligned to current information.
Reviews, samples, mock-ups and issue tracking against the required standard.
Progress monitoring, completion, snagging and final quality review.
Scope and appointment
Construction is charged at 18–22% of the total construction cost.
See the complete project lifecycle“Drawings arrived complete enough to price. Site queries were answered the same week. That is rarer than a pretty render.”
“We kept the floor plate and stopped turning the lights on at 10am. The project was boring in the best way — on programme, on the cost plan.”
Questions
Design is typically about six months: discovery through construction documentation. Construction execution then runs 10–24 months, depending on scale and site.
Design fees are quoted once we have your plot size and brief. Construction, where High Design Studios delivers the build, is 18–22% of the total construction cost.
