A Hinckley-based CIAT Registered Practice providing architectural design, planning and Building Regulations support across Leicestershire, Warwickshire and surrounding areas.
Architectural Vistadesigns (AVD) is a Hinckley-based CIAT Registered Practice, established in 2009 and serving clients across Leicestershire, Warwickshire and surrounding areas.
We help homeowners, landowners and developers with a broad range of residential schemes, from extensions and individual new homes to barn conversions and small developments.
Our role goes beyond producing drawings. We consider what you want to achieve alongside the property or site, the planning context and the practical requirements that may influence the design before the scheme progresses too far.
AVD also works alongside the wider professionals a project may require, including structural engineers, surveyors and other specialist consultants, helping to bring the right input in at the appropriate stage.
Whether you already know exactly what you want to achieve or are still exploring the possibilities, the aim is to give you a clearer route forward rather than simply hand over a set of plans.
AVD is led by Mark Payne, Director and a Chartered Architectural Technologist (MCIAT) with more than 20 years in Architectural Design, Planning and Development.
His background spans a wide variety of buildings, sites and client briefs, from adapting existing homes to shaping new-build and development proposals of various project sectors.
That breadth includes Planning experience across different local authority areas, where planning policies, design guidance and expectations can vary.
Regular involvement with different councils gives Mark a stronger understanding of the issues that may need to be considered from the outset and where a proposal may need to adapt.
He is also used to balancing what a client wants with what can realistically be achieved within the site, budget and planning context, including identifying where changes or compromises may be needed to move a scheme forward.
Mark remains closely involved from the first discussion onwards, so you deal directly with the person leading the practice and applying that professional judgement to your scheme.
