durlum Project Design Lifecycle

At Network Architectural we also offer a complete in-house service from concept to completion, with quick turnaround on drawings and samples. Our detailed durlum Project Design Lifecycle process will transform your vision into reality.

  • Conceptual design – Our process begins with reviewing the Architect’s conceptual design
  • Hand sketches by durlum – Our durlum design team then create a more detailed hand sketch to bring this concept to life, giving you a glimpse of what your project could look like.
  • Samples and colours – To further refine the details, we provide hand samples and a wide array of colours, allowing you to select the perfect combination and correctly colour-match your design.
  • CAD drawings – Once the sketches are approved our experts create precise CAD drawings, ensuring every element of the bespoke ceiling design fits seamlessly together.
  • Full-scale prototypes – We then take your design to the next level by constructing a full-scale prototype, allowing you to experience the end result.
  • Shop drawings by durlum – Finally, our experienced team at durlum produces meticulous shop drawings, guiding the construction process and bringing your project to life, making it easy for final sign-off before going into production.

With our comprehensive bespoke design process, we ensure your vision is realised with the utmost attention to detail and craftsmanship.
