Architectural design is the first and fundamental stage in planning a building, defining its form, function and appearance. The design process arranges the building's spaces to make the best use of the site and meet the needs of its users.

The study follows applicable planning regulations and technical specifications, taking the particular requirements of each project into account and ensuring that the building fits its surroundings.

Our services include

• Architectural design for residential, commercial, industrial, hotel and other buildings
• Floor plans, elevations and building sections
• 3D visualisations and photorealistic renderings
• Layout studies and interior space planning
• Landscape and outdoor space design
• Architectural studies for building permit applications

Structural design is fundamental to the safety and stability of every construction project. It determines the building's load-bearing system and the appropriate dimensions of its structural elements.

The study follows applicable codes and contemporary technical specifications to ensure structural strength and long-term safety.

Our services include

• Structural design for new buildings of all uses
• Analysis and design of reinforced concrete, steel and masonry structures
• Structural assessment of existing buildings
• Building strengthening and rehabilitation studies
• Structural studies for building permit applications

Mechanical and electrical engineering is an essential part of building design. It defines the electrical and mechanical installations needed for safe, functional and energy-efficient operation.

The study follows applicable technical specifications and installation regulations, taking the building's use and the requirements of each project into account.

Our services include

• Electrical installation design
• Water supply and drainage design
• Heating, air-conditioning and ventilation design
• Energy systems and building energy performance studies
• Mechanical and electrical studies for building permit applications

A topographical survey is a fundamental step in documenting a property. It establishes the boundaries, dimensions and characteristics of a plot or parcel of land accurately.

The survey follows applicable technical specifications and provides essential information for property deeds, building permits and the assessment of a property's planning conditions.

Our services include

• Topographical plans for plots and land parcels
• Site surveys and property boundary mapping
• Assessment of plot eligibility and buildability
• Geometric alteration diagrams
• Preparation and submission of topographical plans to the Hellenic Cadastre (KID)
• Topographical plans for building permits
• Topographical plans for notarial deeds

Our company prepares and submits complete building permit applications and handles the necessary planning procedures.

The process includes coordinating all required engineering studies and submitting the supporting documents to the competent authorities.

Our services include

• Preparation and submission of complete building permit applications, including the required studies
• Submission of studies through the e-Adeies electronic permitting system
• Building permits and approvals for small-scale works
• Processing of planning approvals

Interior design studies plan and shape the spaces within a building, focusing on function, ergonomics and appearance.

The design responds to the user's needs and the specific characteristics of the space, proposing solutions that improve its use and visual quality.

Our services include

• Interior layout studies
• Functional space planning
• Interior architectural design
• Space design and aesthetic improvement proposals

Regularisation is the process of addressing planning violations under applicable legislation. It is necessary to establish a property's planning compliance and is often required when transferring, selling or developing real estate.

The process includes examining the property's existing condition, recording unauthorised structures or uses, and submitting the necessary information through the electronic system.

Our services include

• Assessment of a property's planning compliance
• Recording of unauthorised construction and planning violations
• Calculation of regularisation fines
• Submission of declarations through the electronic system
• Preparation of the technical regularisation file
• Completion of the regularisation procedure under applicable legislation

The Electronic Building Identity records the complete information about a building or independent property unit digitally, in accordance with applicable legislation. It brings together the information relating to the property's planning compliance and technical characteristics.

The process is required for property transfers and helps establish the building's planning compliance.

Our services include

• Assessment of the building or property's planning compliance
• Collection and review of the required drawings and property documents
• Preparation and submission of the Electronic Building Identity for a building or independent unit
• Issue of the Electronic Building Identity completeness certificate

An Energy Performance Certificate records the energy performance of a building or independent property unit. An energy assessor issues the certificate and assigns the property's energy rating in accordance with applicable legislation.

An EPC is required when selling or renting a property or applying for an energy upgrade programme.

Our services include

• Energy assessments of buildings and property units
• Recording of the property's energy characteristics
• Calculation of energy consumption
• Issue of Energy Performance Certificates (EPC)

Land use regulations determine the activities permitted on a property under applicable planning schemes and legislation. A land use assessment establishes whether a particular activity or business use is allowed in a space or area.

The assessment is necessary before establishing or operating a business, ensuring that the property's use is compatible with the area's regulatory framework.

An operating licence for a shop or commercial premises is the formal administrative procedure that allows a business to operate legally at a specific location.

The process includes assessing the suitability of the premises, preparing the necessary engineering studies and handling the required procedures with the competent authorities.

Our services include

• Assessment of permitted land uses under applicable planning conditions
• Assessment of a property's suitability for a specific business activity
• Preparation and submission of operating licence applications for shops and commercial premises
• Engineering studies required for business licensing
• Handling of the required procedures with the competent authorities
