Fees & Services
How much does an architect cost in Ireland?
Architect fees vary depending on the size and complexity of a project, the level of service required and the stage at which an architect becomes involved. A straightforward planning application for a house extension will involve a very different scope of work to the full architectural design and delivery of a new home or commercial development.
At Studio B, our architectural fees are tailored to the requirements of each project. We aim to provide a clear scope of services and fee proposal from the outset, allowing clients to understand both the architectural services required and the likely professional costs involved.
We do pride ourselves on the transparency of our relationship with our clients and we have listed below a guide to help new potential clients get started.
