At David James Architects & Partners we offer a full architectural package, from the initial concept through to building completion. Our services include design and planning, interior design, detailed and technical design, tender process, and project management. Whether you have a potential site, or a project that is at a more developed stage, we can adapt our services to meet your specific needs. Our experienced, award winning team will design and project manage your build, creating a bespoke product tailored to your individual needs.

We have an established client base within the South of England, including national and local developers, local housing authorities, and private clients. Reassuringly, we have very strong links with the local authorities, and have considerable experience in negotiating planning applications, including deputations to planning committees and assisting in appeals.
