BARRY SWAYN Architects BELIEVES in a complete design that embodies full development of the solution. OUR objective is to provide clients with thorough documentation, to secure the project against cost overruns or programme delays often attributed to design minimal documentation, or lack of thorough design development and coordination.
BARRY SWAYN Architects BELIEF is that with proper design, planning and vision, environmental issues can and should be addressed. The assessment of the project’s impact on the environment, is not only essential with declining natural resources globally, but equally makes good business sense. EFFICIENT utilization of natural resources helps protect the client’s financial investment now and minimize the projects future maintenance and running costs.
You can hide paintings, you can avoid literature, you can – if you’re ingenious – avoid listening to music, but you cannot avoid architecture. Architecture is the least perishable of the arts and the most public. Architects are supposed to be accountable to art, to finance, to the specialist critic, to the man in the street and perhaps to posterity.
