Client: Architectural Startup, Leeds
Service: Ongoing 2D and 3D CAD Drafting Support
Challenge: Too Many Projects, Not Enough Hands
Growing a new architectural practice isn’t easy, especially when every hour counts. A solo architect in Leeds had built up a strong client base in less than a year—but struggled to keep up with the workload. While concept design and client meetings were manageable, the production of detailed 2D plans and 3D visuals was eating up too much time. Hiring locally wasn’t affordable yet, and missed deadlines were becoming a real risk.
Our Outsourced CAD Drafting Solution
The architect reached out to us, looking for reliable and cost-effective CAD drafting support. We started with a small test project—a single-storey extension with planning and presentation drawings. After the successful trial, we became their extended drafting team.
Our process was simple and efficient:
- Client shared sketches, markups, and site photos
- We prepared 2D planning drawings with proper layering, scales, and notations
- We created 3D visualisations to present to clients
- Revisions were turned around in 24–48 hours
Deliverables Provided
- Planning-ready 2D CAD drawings for residential projects
- Detailed technical layouts for building regulations
- 3D exterior views and client-facing visuals
- Organised DWG files for archiving and reuse
Results: Growth Without Overhead
In just six months, the architect went from handling 2–3 projects at a time to managing 10–12 concurrently. Instead of turning work away, they delivered everything on schedule—thanks to the support of our outsourced CAD drafting UK team. With a steady production partner, the architect had the freedom to focus on design, meetings, and business development.
