02 — Services

Services

We handle most design and consulting for construction projects.

01

Design & drawings

We develop ideas into clear, buildable solutions and prepare documentation for approvals, procurement and construction.

  • Architectural design
  • Main drawings
  • Working drawings
  • 3D visualisation
  • Planning
02

Technical design

Technical solutions need to work with the architecture, use of the building and its construction. We aim for coordinated solutions with clear information that carries through the project.

  • Structural design
  • MEP / services design
  • BIM — Building Information Modeling
03

Design management & coordination

When multiple consultants contribute to a project, coordination is essential. Glóra can lead the design process so decisions, documents and responsibilities remain clear.

  • Design management
  • Coordination of design documents
04

Cost & planning

Good decisions rely on realistic information about scope, programme and cost. We prepare estimates and plans that support decisions before and during delivery.

  • Cost estimates
  • Programmes / schedules
  • Tender preparation
  • Cost monitoring
05

Construction support

Design must translate into construction. Glóra can follow projects into delivery and support coordination and supervision on site.

  • Construction coordination
  • Site supervision
