Architectural Design in Abuja, FCT

Design around the actual plot

Before appointing someone for architectural design in Abuja, agree the purpose of the work and the information they will receive. Good architectural design begins with the actual plot, the client's priorities and how people will move through and use the building every day.

Plan for comfort and climate

Practical site conditions should be included in the plan. In the FCT, plot dimensions, access, setbacks, parking, drainage and development controls can influence what is practical, so survey and site information should be available early.

Think beyond the floor plan

Ask the professional to explain the proposed method and how it will be checked. Orientation, ventilation, room proportions, service spaces, staircase position, future expansion and coordination with structural and services consultants should be resolved before detailed construction.

Agree the design deliverables

Before paying a deposit or confirming mobilisation, make sure the scope is specific. Agree the design stages, number of revisions, drawings and schedules to be delivered, consultant coordination, approval-related documentation and what is outside the architect's fee.
