OUR APPROACH

The cornerstone of our approach is direct contact with you. A dedicated team, with specific experience that is relevant to your project, will work with you to ensure you achieve an individual building or interior to meet your needs and budget. This approach has given us an enviable reputation for client satisfaction and repeat commissions. From the initial discussion to the presentation of designs, site visits and management of ongoing delivery, you will see a familiar face, have regular direct contact and know you are only one call away from an answer. Every project is the result of a rigorous design process regardless of the project size or complexity. We approach every job as a unique challenge and an exciting opportunity to develop the most dynamic and efficient buildings. As a RIBA Chartered Practice and ISO 9001 Registered, we deliver projects through the RIBA Plan of Work. We bring attention to detail at all stages to ensure that a project is designed creatively, specified correctly and delivered successfully.

Brand names and logos are some of the world’s most recognisable and universal symbols. Businesses spend significant amounts of time and money building their brand and corporate identity. SDA plays the important role of Brand Architects and Brand Guardian for a number of clients. Not only do we ensure that a company’s corporate identity is adhered to, we ensure it is implemented in a cost-effective way.
