Artisan Stoneworks’ Post

While summer means relaxation for many, in our construction world, the heat is on. We had many conversations with our clients and partners this spring about how to address ever-tighter deadlines as their new projects kicked off. All too often, stone procurement and fabrication remain in the final bid package – creating risk in the schedule, potentially driving late changes to design details, or additional costs including accelerated freight. We encourage our partners to think differently about stone. By engaging us early, we can source material during the design phase (or during program planning for rollouts) – material that is consistent with the design vision, available in the right quantities, and ready to ship earlier in the schedule. We can advise and collaborate on technical detailing to roll into the CD’s, and to maximize the yield from each slab. And we can prefabricate some elements in the shop, reducing installation time onsite and improving the quality of the execution. Allowing our partners to sweat a little less this summer. Do you have a project in development? We are always happy to talk about stone strategy, so your summers can be a bit more relaxed. #construction #retaildesign #retailconstruction #luxuryretail #commercialconstruction #residentialconstruction #stone #stonestrategy #architecture #interiordesign #luxurydesign

What does the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 say? The Building Owner wishes to raise the full width of the party wall in brick, adding another storey and roof (planning permission has been granted). The Adjoining Owner’s dormer has been built up to the middle of the party wall, creating a clash with the proposal. The Building Owner intends to remove the tiles and battens of the Adjoining Owner’s dormer cheek in order to raise the party wall in brick. Clash!!! Does the Building Owner have the right to do this, or do they have to build around the dormer? The short answer is YES—the Building Owner has the right to raise the party wall in brick. However, they must follow the party wall process and take full responsibility for it, acknowledging that there are risks involved. #architects #partywallact #planning LIFE U DESIGN
