Architectural Design Estimation
At Beard Online Architecture, we take pride in providing customized architectural solutions tailored to meet the unique requirements of each project. While our fees vary depending on factors such as project style, size, and complexity, we understand the need for a budgetary framework.
It is important to note that shown below, the percentage is indicative and subject to individual project requirements. Factors such as site conditions, project timeline, additional services (such as Engineering, Geotechnical Report, Site Suitability Report), and unique client preferences may influence the final fee quotation.
To assist you in determining an initial estimate, we have simplified our fee structure to percentages of the total build cost. Please note that these percentages are only provided as guidelines, and we encourage clients to engage with us directly for a comprehensive and accurate fee quotation based on their specific project.
