What We Do

Our Services

Interior design, architecture and the technical disciplines that carry a project from concept to completion. Holiday homes, coastal retreats, organic interiors and considered residential design across the UK.

A Complete Design Studio

Interior design and architecture sit at the heart of what we do: one creative conversation carried through plan, section, material and finish. The technical disciplines around them (planning, structural, ecology) make sure the design is as buildable as it is beautiful.

We work on projects where atmosphere, materiality and craft matter as much as compliance, and where clients want one studio to take responsibility for both.

Studio AROS Services

Planning & Consents

Unlocking the planning system so the design can be built.

Planning Applications

We prepare and submit planning applications that speak the language of officers and committees, while protecting the interior and architectural intent of the scheme. Our team understands local planning policies across the UK and positions each application for approval.

What We Deliver

  • Full planning applications
  • Outline planning applications
  • Prior approval notifications
  • Listed building consent
  • Conservation area applications
  • Discharge of conditions
  • Certificate of lawfulness
  • Planning appeals support

Conditions Discharge

Planning conditions can delay projects if not managed properly. We coordinate the discharge of all conditions, ensuring technical submissions meet requirements and approvals are secured efficiently.

Structural & Technical Engineering

The quiet engineering that lets the design speak.

Structural Engineering

Our structural engineering is shaped around the design, not the other way around. We work closely with our interior and architectural team to keep steels slim, spans generous and details honest, delivering solutions that are buildable, cost aware and faithful to the drawings.

What We Deliver

  • Structural surveys and reports
  • Structural calculations
  • Foundation design
  • Steel frame design
  • Timber frame solutions
  • Basement engineering
  • Temporary works design
  • Party wall matters

Technical Drawings

Detailed technical drawings and specifications that translate design intent into accurate pricing and precise construction. Our documentation meets Building Regulations and carries the interior detailing through to site without compromise.

Interior & Architectural Design

A complete design solution, inside and out, shaped as one.

Interior Design

Interior design is at the heart of our studio. We think about how a space feels the moment you step into it: the proportion of a room, the fall of light, the tactility of a material, the joinery that makes a wall disappear. Every scheme is developed from a considered concept through to the smallest finish, delivered with makers who share our standards.

Interior Services

  • Concept and mood development
  • Space planning and room proportion
  • Material and finish selection
  • Bespoke joinery design
  • Kitchen and bathroom design
  • Lighting schemes
  • Furniture specification
  • FF&E scheduling

Architectural Design

Our architectural work is designed alongside the interiors it contains. Plan, section and elevation are resolved so that the building frames the life within it, whether that’s a new build mews house, a listed renovation, a Cotswold barn conversion or a coastal holiday home in the Gower or Cornwall.

Landscape Design

Exterior spaces designed to read as an extension of the interior. Courtyards, terraces and gardens shaped around views, thresholds and materials, so the atmosphere you feel inside carries across the boundary.

Ecology & Environment

Designing with the site as well as upon it.

Ecological Services

Our ecological work is part of the design conversation from the start. We assess what's on site, how the scheme can enhance it, and where the building, interior and landscape can work with nature rather than against it, all while clearing the planning conditions that protect biodiversity.

What We Deliver

  • Preliminary ecological appraisals
  • Protected species surveys
  • Bat surveys and mitigation
  • Biodiversity net gain assessments
  • Arboricultural reports
  • Tree protection plans
  • Wildlife lighting strategies
  • Ecological enhancement schemes

Regulatory Expertise

We specialise in complex regulatory requirements including SAB (Sustainable Drainage) applications and Construction Environmental Management Plans (CEMP). Our team understands the specific requirements of environmental agencies and local planning authorities across the UK.

Project Delivery & Coordination

One studio guarding the design from brief to handover.

Complete Oversight

Design intent is easily lost between disciplines and trades. Our delivery service keeps the interior and architectural vision intact through every stage, managing programmes, coordinating consultants and makers, and protecting quality from the first site visit to the last snagging walk.

What We Deliver

  • Project feasibility assessment
  • Programme management
  • Integrated delivery
  • Budget monitoring
  • Quality assurance
  • Risk management
  • Stakeholder communication
  • Completion and handover

The AROS Approach

We take ownership of the whole. From the first concept sketch to the final snagging, our team is accountable for the design and its delivery, so the space you move into is the one we drew.

How We Work

01

Brief & Vision

We begin with how you want to live or work in the space (atmosphere, rhythm, essentials) and test it against the site.

02

Interior & Architectural Concept

Plan, section, materials and interior mood developed together so the scheme reads as one clear idea.

03

Detail & Specification

Joinery, finishes, lighting and technical packages resolved to a level that protects the design on site.

04

Delivery & Handover

Our team stays with the project through construction to completion, so the finished space matches the one you signed off.
