Orfila Architects

Our approach has been driven by close attention to context, function, environment and sustainability. Through dialogue with our clients, statutory consultees, contractors and end users, we ensure that our designs addresses the possibilities and constraints of every brief with a holistic response. We embrace technological innovations for the opportunities they offer to strengthen our design intentions. We take particular care in the selection of materials and their application. Careful consideration is given to a material's visual impact and practical suitability, alongside its environmental impact. Our office is highly computerised in all aspects of the practice. We maintain a detailed tracking system for all projects which provides a high degree of control. We use BIM throughout our projects to allow clients to have a full understanding of their project viewing interactive 2D plans, sections + elevations that navigate to the 3D model. This technology brings the full scope of Building Information Models into the dynamic touchscreen environment of mobile devices. Our firm offers a complete scope of services from consultancy and planning to a full range of architectural design and production services. We provide extensive knowledge and experience in dealing with local regulations.
