A good project brief is essential to obtaining a good design. Your role and participation in this process is vital to achieve a successful outcome. A brief is a written document which details your needs, desires and constraints for your project. It is used as a guide for your architect to develop the design for your project. The brief is a working document which can be modified throughout the design process. We return time and time again to the brief to ensure we are meeting the core desires which premise our engagement. The brief should be aspirational but practical.
The following are a few questions for you to fill in to make sure we are getting the full picture. Feel free to send us some images or names of projects, people or places (or anything else) you would like to include in the brief that you feel captures what you are after.
