BB Partnership. DESIGN ARCHITECTS – DELIVERY ARCHITECTS

BB Partnership is a residential architecture practice drawn to ambitious, complex projects that challenge our technical and creative sides. After all, architecture is much more than design – it takes tenacity, nuts-and-bolts know-how and masses of experience – something we’ve got 30 years (and counting) of.

our clients

We love working with developers and homeowners, and our experience benefits both. Developers tap into our market insight knowledge and understanding of how people want to live and use their homes. Homeowners gain from considered design grounded in sound financial sense.
 
Our work includes housing schemes of all scales, co-living developments, one-off homes and heritage properties in London and the surrounding area. 

DEVELOPERS

We’re a creative partner full of ideas, but our feet are firmly on the ground. We understand the fast pace of development and optimise sites with our knowledge of legislation and planning policy, designing viable schemes that maximise efficiencies while positively contributing to communities. With us on your side, projects will be buildable and deliverable and stand the test of time.

HOMEOWNERS

Your home is a substantial investment of time and money, something we take seriously. As your architect, we listen carefully to your needs and aspirations, guiding you through the process and making it as enjoyable and rewarding as possible. Drawing on decades of residential experience, we’ll help you create a home that suits how you want to live today and tomorrow.

TESTIMONIALS

“BB Partnership’s knowledge of the intricacies of London planning are unsurpassed… From a design perspective they are creative, pragmatic and very open-minded to incorporating clients and outside professionals’ ideas.”

– Carly Gallagher, Director Gallagher London

Our PROCESS

We are an RIBA Chartered architectural practice and can provide the complete range of architectural services. Our process follows the RIBA’s Plan of Work.

The RIBA Plan of Work breaks down the phases of a project into eight stages, from briefing and design to construction and completion. It’s a lot of information to take in, so we’ve taken the opportunity to break it down into a more user-friendly format, summarising what you can expect the process and outcomes to look like.

Strategic Definition

This stage is where we listen to your goals and ambitions.

This is where we start shaping the brief, asking plenty of questions and listening carefully to understand your needs.

This is where we prepare our first sketches, exploring ideas and testing options.

Spatial Coordination

We assess and discuss with you the potential strategies to mitigate the risks at the planning stage.

There are a variety of ways in which a project can be taken through the construction process.

5
Construction

Depending on the selected procurement route, our role during construction may include conducting site inspections and being on hand to resolve queries as they arise.

Handover and Close Out

This stage starts with handing the building over to you.

ARCHITECT SERVICES

BB Partnership Limited is a London-based, design-led architectural practice specialising in all aspects of residential design, from bespoke one-off homes to larger-scale developments. We serve both the private client and the developer/contractor sectors, working closely with them to deliver the most technically demanding projects from inception through to completion.

The insights gained from overseeing construction inform the early stages of all our designs, ensuring that our concepts are practical and realisable as the scheme develops.

Additionally, we provide Executive/Delivery Architect services, collaborating with concept architects or interior designers to produce detailed construction information. We also have the capability to develop projects that already have planning approval for developers and contractors.

Whether we’re involved from the outset or stepping in once planning permission is secured, we work closely with you to deliver the best possible outcomes for your sites.

When it comes to remodelling, extending or building a new home for you and your family, we aim to understand what you want to get out of the project and help guide you…

Working with listed buildings and other heritage assets requires care, technical understanding and a firm grasp of the planning and heritage context.

As much as we love being part of the whole process, we also enjoy helping to deliver projects on site that already have planning approval…

Working across the residential sector, we have a wealth of experience dealing with challenging projects where the influence of third parties plays a key role in a scheme’s success.

If your project involves more than one contractor, you will legally be required to have a Principal Designer, which we are always happy to take on alongside our role as Architect.

An Employee-Owned Architectural Practice

Since 2016 BB Partnership has been an Employee-Owned Architectural Practice and as a member of the Employee Ownership Association we are vocal advocates for employee ownership.

The employee-owned model creates stability, promotes team retention and also creates a clear pathway for progression in the practice. Our clients benefit from a dedicated team who are invested in a successful outcome for every project and the development of the practice.
