In the design stage D2, we focus on getting the architectural layout right, ensuring that the building's look and feel align perfectly with the client’s vision, brief, cost plan, and project objectives. This stage is crucial for spatial coordination, where we integrate architectural aspects and energy-efficiency information to create a cohesive design.

Our iterative design process involves close collaboration with clients and stakeholders to address both objective and subjective criteria, resulting in a project-specific approach. We also assess cost implications and monitor the budget to ensure the design scope remains within financial constraints.
Additionally, we prioritise energy efficiency, comfort, and health through preliminary solar radiation analysis, energy modelling, and hygrothermal assessment.

If a Passivhaus certification is pursued, we coordinate the certifier's initial review at this stage.

By the end of Stage 2, the design is refined and coordinated, setting the foundation to move into Stage D3 Planning or D4 Resolution while minimising the need for major changes later in the project.

Engaging an architect or building designer does not have to be a daunting process. 

At 81, we've simplified the process into clear, purposeful stages. Our "D1 Strategy" stage lets you explore your vision without committing to a large design package. It’s a chance to get to know each other, ensure we truly understand your expectations and confirm that what we design is both feasible and within budget.

Let’s start this journey together, one thoughtful step at a time.

Projects come to us at various stages of development. Therefore, we advocate for a customisable and adaptable approach that considers these factors while maintaining an efficient and streamlined workflow.

We analyse and develop your design against science-based metrics to provide an energy-efficient, healthy, and comfortable environment.

Your choice will determine our approach to analysing your project and providing consultation regarding energy-efficient practices and building standards.

Our mission is to create buildings that enhance life, improve well-being, and respect the environment today and for future generations. Design projects can be complex, so we've developed a strategy to guide each stage with a clear purpose.

Our design philosophy integrates cutting-edge building science and data-driven insights to design spaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also energy-efficient, healthy, and sustainable.

Understanding the vision of a project and building strong relationships based on open and honest communication is essential to provide a valuable service.

We analyse design projects at various stages, from concept to completion, for energy efficiency, health, and comfort shortcomings. This includes potential moisture and mould risks. We translate data, information, and facts into a report that everyone involved can understand. Mostly, we want to provide our clients (homeowners, architects, designers, builders, and developers) with a service that allows them to make informed decisions.
