By Michael McKay MCIAT, Certified Passive House Designer at NP Architects Ltd. No time for reading? Do you require Passive House design services? Feel free to contact us for a discussion. Passive House or Passivhaus (German) is a standard of building design which looks at the art of keeping the heat in a building through efficient design, therefore reducing the energy needed to heat a building in the first place.
What fees do architects charge? Architect's fees can vary considerably depending on the level of service, complexity, location and type of project required. If you are getting competitive quotes you may wish to distinguish between RIBA Chartered Practices and other designers. Anyone can with CAD software offer 'architectural services' but only architects can use the name architect and be an RIBA member.

Report
I was really pleased with the service I got from NP Architects. The design they produced was imaginative and absolutely in line with what I wanted. They then managed the construction work in a very professional and responsive way. Nick was always available to consult with the contractor and together they found solutions to all the issues that arose. The handling of the contractor's invoices was very professional.

Thoroughly professional service in assessing my requirements for a new house and providing thought-provoking and well-grounded advice offering really interesting alternative solutions. I shall definitely be returning to follow up with the full development of these ideas when the time comes. Very satisfying process.
