Our Services
At Studio G, we bring together expertise in architecture and wider design consultancy. Our work spans new builds, conversions, sustainable design, and conservation projects.
With experience across a wide range of sectors, including residential, commercial, education, community, healthcare, and retail, we support clients at every stage of their project. From surveys and feasibility studies to planning applications, building regulations, tenders, and contract administration, we are here to help solve any building-related challenge.
We are committed to understanding our clients’ needs and through our innovative design approach, skills and a thorough understanding of sustainability; aim to provide them with design solutions that exceed their expectations.
→ ARCHITECTURE
Architecture is about more than just buildings - it’s about creating spaces that are functional, beautiful, and sustainable. At Studio G, we blend creativity with technical expertise to design well-considered, environmentally responsible projects that stand the test of time.
From feasibility studies to project completion, we prioritise customer service, ensuring a smooth and collaborative process. Our sustainability-led approach means we integrate energy efficiency and environmental strategies from the outset, reducing costs and future-proofing developments.
Whether designing, managing, or delivering, we put our clients first - turning visions into reality with precision, care, and a commitment to quality.
-
With extensive experience in evaluating development sites, we help landowners, developers, and buyers understand a site’s full potential. From planning constraints and sketch options to cost estimates and environmental risks, we uncover what’s possible (and what’s not), fast. Thanks to our close link with Gusto Construction, we can also build in live costings and sustainability strategy right from day one.
-
Conceptual design is the foundation of every successful project, shaping ideas into a clear and achievable vision. We will bring your brief to life through sketching, advanced 3D modelling or even virtual reality, allowing you to fully engage with and explore your project. This stage concludes with a client sign-off meeting to establish a crucial “design freeze” before progressing to planning.
-
We know the planning system inside out, and we know how to create a well-prepared submission to increase the likelihood of approval for your project. Our packages are detailed, clear and sustainability-led, compiled to address any concerns and streamline the approval process.
-
Our Technical Design process transforms creative ideas into precise, buildable solutions through detailed drawings, specifications, and coordinated 3D models. Using BIM and close collaboration with engineers and contractors, we ensure every project is delivered efficiently, safely, and to the highest standards.
-
We believe a well-structured tender package ensures transparency and minimises risk; Studio G can play a key role in preparing and managing your tendering process, answering queries and evaluating bids to ensure the best fit for the project. By providing clear, comprehensive documentation, we help clients secure reliable contractors, control costs, and maintain project quality from the outset.
-
We provide clear, well-structured construction and contract information packages that define every aspect of a project including architectural drawings, specifications, schedules and legal agreements. These documents are key to smooth delivery, reducing risk, enhancing collaboration, and keeping projects on time and on budget.
-
Whether under a JCT or RIBA contract, we act as Contract Administrator to make sure things are built to spec and stay on programme. On Design & Build schemes, we work closely with contractors - reviewing designs, checking compliance, and keeping the project aligned to its original intent. We are on-site, in the loop, and making sure everything lands exactly where it should.
→ BIM (BUILDING INFORMATION MODELLING)
In any construction project, information is key and managing it well is the secret to a successful project. That’s where Building Information Modelling (BIM) comes in.
BIM is a powerful digital tool that lets architects and designers build smart, data-rich 3D models that integrate materials, geometry and performance insights. It’s more than drawings on a screen; it’s a connected, collaborative approach that brings every part of a project together.
BIM helps our team work with improved efficiency and productivity, freeing us up to focus on what really matters: creating brilliant spaces that work for both people and the planet.
→ CDM PRINCIPAL DESIGNER
Health and safety isn’t a box-ticking exercise, it’s built into our process. As CDM Principal Designers, we manage pre-construction risks from day one, making sure your project is safe, compliant, and future-ready.
We plan, manage, monitor, and coordinate health and safety in the pre-construction phase, using our skills, experience, and insight to keep everyone protected.
At Studio G, we have taken on the Principal Designer role across a wide range of projects and sectors. We know what it takes to make health and safety a seamless part of the process, without slowing things down.
→ BUILDING REGULATIONS PRINCIPAL DESIGNER
Any new project requiring a new Building Regulations application will require a Principal Designer to be appointed. The BRPD is responsible for planning, managing, and monitoring the design phase to ensure that all aspects of the design are properly coordinated and meet the requirements of the Building Regulations.
At Studio G, we are well-positioned to deliver this service. Drawing on our extensive experience as Lead Designers and Consultants across a wide range of projects, we will ensure that regulatory compliance is built into every stage of the design process.
→ PROJECT MANAGEMENT
At Studio G, we believe the most successful projects are those where architects lead from the front, guiding every stage from concept through to completion.
We regularly take on the role of Lead Consultant and Contract Administrator for traditionally procured projects, ensuring the design and delivery phases are seamlessly aligned to achieve well-coordinated, high-quality results. On developer-led schemes, we often manage projects from land acquisition to completion, leveraging our collaboration with Gusto Group and Gusto Construction to deliver fully integrated outcomes.
This joined-up approach allows us to manage the entire process, from initial ideas to final build, under a Turnkey-style procurement strategy. It reduces client risk, enhances efficiency, and keeps design quality front and centre.
From first sketch to final snag, we lead the process, protect the vision, and keep everything running like clockwork.
