Architectural Design Services for Modern Homes & Spaces
About the Service
We begin with the property, your brief and the way you want to live. Layout options explore circulation, daylight, storage and the relationship between rooms. Measured survey information, Layout options and agreed drawings, Coordination with appointed structural and building-services specialists, Planning and technical drawing scope agreed for your project. The deliverables, responsibilities and fees are agreed in your project proposal.
Measured surveys, site analysis, feasibility thinking, concept development, architectural drawings and 3D visualisations can all contribute to a clear design direction. For extensions, refurbishments, new-build elements and complex interior transformations, the aim is to create an architectural framework that supports both planning requirements and the quality of the finished environment.
Our Dedication
Our dedication is to clarity, precision and design that works in practice. We take time to understand how a property will be used, how people move through it and how architectural decisions affect light, proportion, comfort and future flexibility. Drawings and design information are developed with close attention to planning, Building Control and technical coordination where relevant. We also maintain communication between the architectural, interior and construction stages so that the original concept is not lost during delivery.
We Provide Complete Architectural Design Solutions
Successful architectural design in London often requires more than creating an attractive plan.
Existing buildings can present constraints around structure, access, neighbouring properties, heritage character and the way rooms have evolved over time.
Our approach considers these conditions alongside the client’s priorities, whether the project involves a high-end home, apartment, office, hospitality venue or another commercial environment. Spatial planning is used to improve flow, make better use of available floor area and create a strong relationship between private, social and functional zones.
Where appropriate, the design process can explore extensions, reconfiguration, openings, daylight opportunities and new architectural features while respecting the identity of the property.
As the project develops, architectural information can progress from concept layouts and visual studies into approval-ready and construction-focused documentation.
Accanto’s wider process follows a structured, RIBA-aligned route that connects feasibility, concept design, spatial coordination, planning, technical design, construction and handover.
This allows architectural decisions to be coordinated with structural and MEP requirements, finishes, lighting, bespoke joinery and the practical needs of the build. For London residential and commercial projects, that continuity is especially valuable because design changes made in isolation can affect cost, programme and compliance.
