GETTING PERMISSION

Stage 03

Licensing is the proper authorization required to carry out building works. Administrative permits are imperative in most construction processes. However, some projects waive these licensing requirements. For example, rehabilitation, conservation, and alterations with “minor urbanistic relevance” — that is, construction works that do not alter the structure or the exterior appearance of the building — can forgo this step.

Stage 03

It’s important to highlight that, despite being an exception to the rule in the context of construction processes and licensing requests, if the real estate asset is considered heritage or is located a historical zone, there is always some kind of licensing that must be submitted. At Architect Your Home, we handle these processes every day.

E1 – Drawings for Preliminary Information Request

General permission for local authorities ( Preliminary Information Request)

The Preliminary Information Request aims to obtain preliminary approval of the Architecture Project. When one of our architects develops a Preliminary Information Request, they integrate the preliminary study drawings for municipal approval of the proposal’s overall appearance, as well as other necessary elements such as height, facade alterations, and project materials

F1 -Project Coordination and Compatibility with All Specialties

Other Consultants needed

Every project involves other specialties — structure, water, sewage, electricity, etc. — that must be coordinated to align with the client’s initial vision. Our architects are qualified to oversee all specialties involved in the process and integrate them into the project.

F2 – Planning Permission application

Design permission for the local authorities

Licensing drawings are created at a more detailed scale than the Preliminary Study. They consider the other project specialties, including area charts, urban planning parameters, accessibility, descriptive reports, and photomontages. This stage leads to the approval of the Architecture Project.

F6 – Drawings for Prior Communication

A more detailed permission for local authorities

If there is an approved Preliminary Information Request, the architectural project can be submitted to municipal authorities, along with the specialties. In these cases, which should be led by an architect, approval is faster. The goal at this stage is to get approval for the Architecture Project and its specialties.

F7 – Project Follow-Up

Keeping everything on track

Projects go through different stages and are processed by various entities with the involvement of multiple stakeholders. Our architect will oversee the process with municipal authorities, specialty engineers, and other entities, ensuring that everything is coordinated and approved within the estimated timeline.

Schedule an Initial Consultation

The initial consultation helps transform our clients’ vision into feasible plans, allowing them to start building a solid project from the first visit with sketches drawn on-site.
