ARCH-LIVE DESIGNLAB architects got its name as a direct response to the need for youth run, owned and empowered legitimate business. Arch-live designlab is an architecture that is pulsating with ideas, it’s responsive and highly interactive with the client. We are not short of perseverance and we operate with high accuracy while incorporating technical systems and product. We understand energy efficiency applications and subscribe to SANS 10400 XA

Our buildings and spaces should be designed and solved to reflect how we see ourselves as a civil society, it's a self - esteem thing.

Arch-live design lab is live and in it everyday! The practice pulsates as a reflection of hope and opportunity to a HDI community. We say lab because we see our processes as malleable to the need, we need to remain flexible, its where we derive our fun.

The core structure of architectural services is aptly described in the South African Institute of Architects (SAIA) Client-Architect Agreement, which can be downloaded here

from the SAIA website. The SAIA Agreement also describes the duties and responsibilities of both client and architect, and forms a solid basis for a mutually beneficial

relationship. We are a full-service architectural practice delivering design, project documentation, and contract administration services across a range of project types.Service

proceeds from the general to the specific, with increasing levels of technical resolution, as time progresses. The generally defined sequence is:

2. Concept and brief feasability study

3. Design Development

4. Approvals

4.1 Construction Drawings and Tendering

5. Contract Administration

6. Handover and Close-out.

PROJECT DEFINITION PHASE:

· Limited urban design studies

· Site selection and Due Diligence on comparable site locations, based on commercial and strategic parameters

· Site selection in ecologically sensitive areas, by on-site inspections and direct observation

· Participation in Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA's)

· Participation in consultations and meetings with local interest groups as part of Public Participation Processes

· Precedent studies relevant to the brief, based on similar successful projects.

· Due Diligence investigations on existing buildings

· Measuring up of existing buildings and investigations into existing plans

· Enquiries at Local Authority to establish planning law parameters applicable to a site

· Engagement and negotiations with the SA Heritage Resources Agency (SAHRA)

· Advice on building techniques and procurement models for buildings in remote locations
