There are two ways to engage with LJW. You are welcome to contact us directly with a project in mind, and we can assist in recommending an architect suited to your brief. Alternatively, if you are already working with an architect, we are happy to be invited into the tender process at the appropriate stage.

Budgets vary depending on the scope, scale and complexity of each project. We are happy to provide an early, indicative guide following an initial discussion. We recommend allowing a contingency to accommodate design development, site conditions and unforeseen items, ensuring the project can progress smoothly without compromise.
