Stage 01
Concept Design
Establishes the overall direction of the building — layout, spatial organization, design intent, and early visual development.
Architectural Design & BIM
SZM Architecture
Process • Packages • Deliverables
Thoughtful architectural design, BIM-based documentation, and clear project support for residential, commercial, and small mixed-use work.
SZM ARCHITECTURE
Structured design, coordinated documentation, and a clear process from
brief to buildable output.
01 / Overview
A design process built to move projects forward clearly.
SZM Architecture supports projects through a structured approach that starts with clear direction, develops through coordinated design thinking, and progresses toward practical drawing output.
02 / In sequence
From concept to documentation.
Projects are developed in stages so the scope stays clear and the information builds progressively rather than all at once.
Stage 02
Design Development
Refines the selected design through more coordinated plans, sections, elevations, dimensions, and clearer technical intent.
Stage 03
Documentation
Produces the drawing information required for approval, coordination, and construction-oriented use, depending on scope.
03 / Focus
Project support shaped around real needs.
Rather than flooding projects with unnecessary complexity from the start, services are scaled to suit residential, commercial, and small mixed-use work.
Residential
Homes & small residential work
Design support, planning, and documentation for homes, additions, renovations, and compact residential projects.
Commercial
Commercial & small business spaces
Spatial planning and coordinated drawing development for offices, service spaces, and growing business needs.
Mixed-Use
Small mixed-use projects
Early-stage planning and project development where circulation, flexibility, and future growth all matter.
04 / Navigate
Explore by section.
Each page focuses on a different part of the practice, so the information stays clear and easier to follow.

05 / Start here
Not sure where to start?
Choose the option that fits your situation. If you already have the basic project details, send an enquiry. If you would prefer to talk through the project first, book a consultation.
Project Enquiry
Send project details for review
Best if you already have a project in mind and can share the basic details such as project type, location, budget range, and timeline.
After submission, the project can be reviewed and the appropriate next steps can be identified.
Consultation
Book a consultation first
Best if you need guidance before submitting full project details, or if you want to clarify scope, starting point, or service path first.
Consultation times are based on live availability to reduce clashes and unnecessary back-and-forth messaging.
06 / Next step
Start with the stage that fits the project.
Whether a project begins with concept design or continues into fuller documentation, the process is intended to remain clear, scalable, and aligned with what is actually needed.
