Why should I hire an architect? What value can they add to my construction project? Taking on a new project always leaves you with questions that you just can’t answer, which is where hiring a professional can be really helpful. Don’t take it from us though; this evening we are inviting a series of client / architect teams to discuss their experiences of working together and whether (or not!) they’d make the same decisions again.
If you’re planning a construction project and you don’t know where to start, then come along and hear from an experienced client before you make your final decisions.
Presentations from each of the design teams will be followed by a question and answer session, and will finish with an opportunity to meet our speakers and architects in an informal networking event.
This event is part of the Leicester Business Festival and Love Architecture 2018; hosted by Leicestershire and Rutland Society of Architects and in association with RIBA.
The event is for anyone looking to undertake a construction project and looking for advice from Architects and from clients who have completed the project. The format is based on a client and an Architect pair talking about a project they have completed together. It can be private domestic clients, small developers or small businesses.
