TMG Designs provide rural Modelling for any project. These give a clear illustration of the proposed development to clients. These are very useful as a visual aid and allow clients to view the finished Area. Models are an accurate way to visualise your proposed design allowing you to see all internal and external factors before submission of the planning application to the local authority in Kerry. A rural scale study model is a very simple but effective tool to portray the design, shape and proportions of any proposed development. TMG Designs use white card to produce a scaled representation of each structure which can be viewed from every angle. It is also a useful aid to finalise detailed design.
After design proposals have been finished, TMG Designs will look at the aspects of your design that require it - which materials should be used, the size, location of doors and windows, layout of rooms & other key construction details.
Then we prepare a set of planning drawings for your approval. After your approval of drawings, we will prepare a detailed planning application submission.
The planning process is difficult and therefore it is advisable that Kerry County Council is consulted at an early stage to establish any issues with the site or if the design must be altered. We design specifications towards local planning authorities in Kerry.
We seek approval for the development & incorporate of any recommendations before we proceed to the preparation a detailed planning application submission.
We ensure that the details in our design presented at planning stage can be realistically implemented in the building stage of your project.
Following appointment, we will meet with the Client and liaise with other members of the Design Team to develop the project, design brief and assist in the preparation and development of a project programme.
The key is setting a realistic budget but also have your expectations in line with that budget. If your budget is tight that is not a problem, we’ll work within anyone’s budget. The problems arise when people’s ideas and dreams overtake their budget.
The house design and specification can be adjusted if you're at pre-planning stage to come within budget. If full planning has been granted only the specification can be adjusted to come within budget.
It's imperative you know your budget at pre-planning stage as you can only cut the specification so far. You'll never bring an expensive design down to a tight budget no matter how much you cut the specification.
We will advise on the cost efficiency of materials and construction methods under review and begin immediately to advise on contract administration, contractor selection and cost control.
We will instill cost management discipline to the project by full participation in cost control within the design team.
This ensures the confident and pro-active control of all project costs.
