Finding the Right Path for Your Project At RDA Architects, we understand that no two projects are the same—each client brings a unique vision, set of priorities, and practical considerations. One of the most important early decisions in delivering a successful project is selecting the right procurement route. Whether you're building from scratch, transforming an existing home, or undertaking a detailed retrofit, the procurement method you choose will shape everything from cost and timelines to quality and creative control. Here’s a breakdown of the three most common approaches, along with our perspective on which may work best for your project.

At RDA Architects, we know that designing a home is a personal and transformative journey. That’s why we’ve developed a 5-phase approach to guide you seamlessly through each stage—offering clarity, structure, and confidence from start to finish.
From navigating planning permissions to bringing your vision to life with site visits, 3D visualisations, and models, we ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience. Unlike many practices, we integrate sustainability from day one, considering embodied carbon, airtightness, and energy efficiency from the outset.

We’re delighted to share that The Connected House has been shortlisted for the RIBA London Awards 2024—a recognition that celebrates architectural excellence and innovation. Nestled in the heart of The Dulwich Estate’s conservation area, The Connected House is a prime example of how cutting-edge sustainability and technological integration can breathe new life into a mid-century home. Originally designed by Austin Vernon & Partners in the early 1960s, this home stood as a relic of its time—boasting incredible views of London’s skyline but suffering from decades of substandard modifications.
