Feasibility Studies

Find out what's possible on your site before you commit to full design costs.

Get In Touch

If you're not yet sure whether your project is possible, a feasibility study is the sensible first step. We visit your site, listen to what you're hoping to achieve, and produce an honest assessment of what's realistic — covering space, layout options, likely planning considerations and rough build costs — so you can decide whether to proceed with confidence, before paying for full design work.

Starting from £500

How It Works

1

Meet & Discuss Your Brief

We meet with you to record and identify your design brief objectives — what you want from the space and any constraints you're working with.

2

Site Survey

We undertake a site survey to take accurate measurements and levels, so any options we present are grounded in reality.

Feasibility Study

We prepare a feasibility study and develop it with you one-on-one, refining the options until you're clear on what's achievable.

Frequently Asked Questions

It's not a legal requirement, but for anything beyond a straightforward project it's a low-cost way to avoid spending on full drawings for something that turns out not to be viable.

It varies by project, but we'll give you a realistic timescale at your free initial consultation once we understand the scope.

Yes — most clients use it as the first stage of a continuous project, moving on to full design once they're happy with the direction.

Part of the Gelder Group

DesignSpace Architecture is part of the Gelder Group, an award-winning Lincolnshire construction company built from six associated companies covering everything from architectural design through to groundworks, build and fit-out. That "everything-in-construction" reach means the drawings we produce aren't just attractive on paper — they're shaped from day one by people who also cost, build and deliver construction projects.

For our clients, that translates into real, practical benefits: a single group accountable for design and delivery, increased cost certainty from the earliest stage, and — where it suits your project — the option of a seamless handover from design straight into construction, without having to find and brief a separate contractor.
