Architectural Design
What does architectural design include?
Design is a crucial phase in the realization of every construction or technical structure. It includes planning, dimensioning, and preparing the necessary documentation for the execution of works. The design process is typically divided into three basic levels: conceptual design, main design and execution design, each with its own purpose and specifics.
1. conceptual design
The conceptual design represents the initial phase of the project, in which the basic concepts and parameters of the future building are defined. The goal is to present the vision and general idea of the project without detailed technical solutions. Within the conceptual design, the following are usually considered:
The conceptual design serves as a basis for obtaining approval from the investor and relevant authorities, and it may be subject to public discussion.
2. MAIN DESIGN
The main design project is a detailed elaboration of the conceptual solution, encompassing all technical, structural, and functional aspects of construction. In this phase, complete documentation required for obtaining a building permit is prepared. The main design project includes:
After the main design project is approved, the preparatory phase of construction can begin.
3. Execution design
The construction design project represents the most detailed phase of the design process, intended for direct application on the construction site. It contains precise instructions for contractors to ensure accurate execution according to the project documentation. The construction design project includes:
The construction design must be fully aligned with the main design project and serves as an essential foundation for the high-quality execution of construction works.
Interior Design
What does interior design include?
Interior design represents the art and science of shaping interior spaces to be functional, aesthetically appealing, and aligned with the user's needs. The process of creating interiors encompasses multiple phases, from the initial idea to the final realization. Depending on the scope and complexity of the project, it may involve a conceptual design, an execution design, or a comprehensive solution known as "turnkey."
1. conceptual design
The conceptual interior design project is the initial phase in which the vision and concept of the interior are defined. The goal is to present the general stylistic orientation, layout of functional zones, and basic materials. The conceptual project typically includes:
This project serves as the foundation for further development and agreement with the investor.
2. Execution design
The construction design project is detailed documentation containing all the technical specifications necessary for interior execution. It includes:
The construction design project ensures precise implementation of the design without errors or unforeseen changes.
3. TURNKEY
“Turnkey” is the most comprehensive interior design service, where the client receives a finished, fully equipped, and functional space. This approach includes:
This model is ideal for those who want a ready-made solution without stress or the need to manage multiple contractors.
Author’s Supervision
Author supervision entails professional monitoring of the realization of an architectural or interior design project with the aim of preserving the consistency of the original idea and execution quality. As part of this service, I oversee the construction process, coordinate details, and provide guidance to ensure the space is executed in accordance with the project and aesthetic standards.
Professional Consulting
During one-hour sessions, I offer verbal consultations about your interior, whether it involves planning a new layout or redesigning an existing space. I analyze the current state and provide suggestions and ideas to enhance both the functionality and aesthetics of the space.
Urban design and landscape
What are urban design and landscape architecture?
Urban design deals with shaping functional and aesthetically appealing urban spaces through the organization of buildings, streets, and public areas, while landscape architecture focuses on designing open spaces by integrating natural elements, plant communities, and recreational zones to enhance the quality of the living environment.
URBAN DESIGN
Urban design focuses on shaping city spaces, streets, squares, and the overall urban structure. Its role is to connect architectural buildings with public spaces, creating harmony between structures and their surroundings.
Key elements of urban design:
LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE
Landscape architecture focuses on shaping open spaces — from parks and yards to recreational areas and protected natural sites. The main goal is to create ecologically sustainable and visually appealing landscapes.
