DMV Architecture: Why You Need An Architect

Planning a new build? Whether an office or new home or an extension to your existing space, you may need the services of an architect. Here we share some reasons why we think you’ll need one and how to select a team you can trust.

These are exciting times as you embark on a journey to bring your vision to reality, and it requires you to be decisive of what you want and how you want it – and that there is the exact reason you need an architect. Someone who will be there to help you make the decisions you need to make while assisting in bringing your vision to life. They will also need to provide you with the tangible experiences you require.

A well-planned design is well worth its weight in gold. Employing the services of a professional architect with the experience relevant to your needs and lifestyle will pay dividends in the long-term. An architect not only presents options that are tailor-made to your taste and requirements but also ensures a cost-effective project.

Before we look at an in-depth role of an architect, let us look at what architecture is and the role it plays in our lives. This will aid a better understanding of why you need one and how to choose an architect.

Architecture has proven to be many things – comfort, elegance, modern, expressive, indexical, vernacular – and yet, one of its most exciting aspects is its capacity to reflect the spirit of time, in a way that might be even more substantial than how we see it happen with art. Just by having a glance at buildings built in different places at different moments in time would help us understand our past without using any words. That is the true beauty of architecture; it can be both timeless and personal at the same time, and that is what you want your home or office to represent.

How is DMV Architecture Different?

DMV Architecture aims for continuous development within the office through the exploration of space making. Here, the team believe in architecture rooted in modernist planning principles, yet expressed in a timeless aesthetic.

“We believe Architecture is a part of the environment and needs to be developed through the careful design and consideration of the surrounding context. This is achieved by understanding, exploring and implementing the fundamental principles that result in good design. We believe that a successful building will evoke a sense of emotion upon the user that will automatically showcase the hierarchy of the space, thereby creating a feeling of fulfilment not only for the architect but even more so for our clients.”

At DMV Architecture, the aim is to identify and establish the core concept and brand identity along with client’s expectations and needs. Ideas are born from the site and developed on the sketch pad. Through this DMV Architecture seeks to visualise client’s ideas while setting a realistic benchmark with regards to the budget and time constraints. Client’s needs are important, enabling the team to investigate, evaluate and develop a conclusive brief. They aspire to provide a comprehensive service ranging from spatial design, municipal submission and on-site management.

“Our approach in developing a holistic design is unique, and specific to each client’s brief, to embody the essence of your personal space or corporate/retail brand. Creating a unified design language which translates to a space that adheres to every detail and aspect of your identity.”
