Our Building Design Process

Step 1:

You (as the Client) will send all the requirements regarding your specific design need, spaces, furniture, finishes, appliances, etc.You are free to send images of similar buildings (whether existing or virtual images) which may have inspired your desire.

Step 2:

We (VolArchy) will review your design requirements and what it will require. We will send a design invoice after the review.

Step 3:

You are expected to review the invoice and ask questions where necessary.Upon accepting the design invoice, you will pay a 70% upfront payment to confirm the project. This fee enables us to begin works on your project.

Step 4:

This could involve case-studies of similar buildings (that is if your design requires that). We begin by creating sketches on paper and transfer the images to our 3D software (typically takes 3-28 working days) depending on the nature of the project.

Step 5:

We send a first draft of your design project to you as a PDF file and a Walk-through video, for your revision.We receive your feedback on the design and make further design revisions.Note that: at this stage, you are entitled to 1 major revision and 1 minor revision, after which we consider the whole project as a NEW PROJECT and return to Step 1 (though, this is an uncommon occurrence).

Step 6:

Upon satisfaction of the design project, we (VolArchy) will start the construction drawings. Typically takes 3-28 working days or more, depending on the nature of the project.

A final payment invoice will be sent to you for the remaining 30%, which is made to VolArchy by You.

The final drawing (Construction drawing) is sent to you as PDF only. If you paid for the Architectural seal, the final drawing will be printed, and sealed. A set of 4 copies will be sent to you for local planning approval.

Close Service Plans

Accessibility Services

Make Your building accessible to the average user.

Note that:

Due to the uniqueness of each project and the complexity each accessibility project might bring, there is no one-size fit accessibility design process for this. We only look forward to maintaining a clear communication line throughout the process of making your building accessible.

Building Maintenance Services

Prevention, they say, is better than cure. Prevent your building from deteriorating.

Building Restoration Services

Bring an old and iconic building back to its glory or even better.

Iconic buildings should not be left to deteriorate. They should be tenderly preserved to reduce dilapidation as much as possible.

But when such buildings have been abandoned for a while, the quality of the structures are checked to ascertain their strength, and how much life it still has.

Repairs are done to fix things that are broken, electrical and plumbing works will have to re-channelled and replaced.

Extra care is taken during such works to ensure the building structural stability is not endangered.

Where there are delicate elements used in the building, experts are required to manage such.

Below is an example of such buildings.

Note that:

Due to the uniqueness of each project and the complexity each restoration project might bring, there is no one-size fit process for this. We only look forward to maintaining a clear comunication line throughout the restoration journey.

Building Renovation Services

Improve a building design or correct a defect. Get a building facelift.

Renovations are done to buildings usually to upgrade its look and features to the recent times. This requires taking measurements of existing building on the site, reproducing the existing drawings as built, before any changes to improve the exterior and interiors are made.

Note that:

Due to the uniqueness of each project and the complexity each renovation project might bring, there is no one-size fit process for this. We only look forward to maintaining a clear communication line throughout the renovation journey.
