Services

We offer a full and complete turnkey service to suit a variety of client needs, from smaller jobs, such as revamping a room, to bigger projects including extensions or remodelling an entire house. Our process begins with an initial free consultation, after which we project manage the whole concept from start to finish, right down to the smallest detail.  

If a project involves structural work, we provide architectural drawings as well as deal with any planning issues that might arise. We are well versed in issues dealing with Listed (Grade 1, Grade 2, Grade 2*) properties, and homes that fall into any regulations concerning Conservation areas. We also have a great team of skilled builders that we use regularly, who share our professionalism and help ensure that the work runs smoothly. 

For both the architectural and interior design service we feel that we interpret the vision of a client, while simultaneously helping them push the boundaries of their comfort zone. The aim of this is to create a scheme that is beautiful, with personalised touches, and a strong element of practical workability. 

About Us 

Jim and Catherine met while working together in an architectural design company in Brighton. In 2009 they both left the firm to start their own separate companies, but increasingly worked on projects together, so a year later decided to set up Arior Design, offering a complete architecture and interiors service.
