About Architectural Design

The most consequential cost decisions are made before construction: area, structural logic, services coordination and the level of detail. A resolved design reduces site improvisation, variations and compromises that are expensive to correct later.

Our stage-gated process begins with a written brief and site evidence, compares concept options against cost and performance, coordinates architecture with structure and building services, and concludes with documents a contractor can price and build with confidence.

How We Work

A measurable stage-by-stage process with clear visibility of progress and decisions.

01

Discovery and site analysis

We document priorities, budget, operations, planning rules, climate and physical site constraints.

02

Written brief

Rooms, relationships, capacities and performance targets are agreed before options are drawn.

03

Concept alternatives

Viable options are compared for experience, efficiency, buildability and likely cost.

04

Coordinated design

Architecture, structure, MEP and specialist inputs are resolved before details are fixed.

05

Detailed documentation

Drawings, schedules, specifications and quantities communicate the approved design for procurement and construction.

06

Construction support

Submittals, samples, site questions and inspections are managed to protect design intent through handover.

Frequently Asked Questions About Architectural Design

How long does architectural design take?

Timing depends on project scale, approval cycles and the speed of decisions. A staged programme is agreed at appointment, with each phase approved before the next begins.

How are design fees calculated?

Fees reflect scope, area, complexity, disciplines, deliverables and supervision requirements. The proposal identifies inclusions and exclusions clearly.

Can the design be changed after approval?

Yes, but late changes can affect coordination, approvals, cost and programme. We document the impact before implementing a material revision.

Who owns the drawings after delivery?

Usage and intellectual-property rights are defined in the appointment. Clients receive the agreed deliverables for the project once contractual obligations are complete.

Will the design comply with the Saudi Building Code?

Compliance requirements are incorporated from the outset and coordinated with the relevant engineering disciplines and authorities.

Can Domira supervise construction?

Yes. Supervision can include submittal review, site inspections, quality reporting, clarification and verification of design compliance.

Do you provide BIM services?

Yes. BIM scope and level of development are agreed around coordination, quantities, visualisation and facilities requirements.
