Budget doesn’t become less real because we postpone talking about it.

It’s understandable that homeowners are sometimes hesitant to share their budget with an architect early on. There can be a fear that if you say what you have available, the project will somehow end up costing exactly that amount.

But knowing the budget means we can make better decisions from the start. Do we extend, or could the existing house work harder? What is worth spending more on now? What could wait for a second phase? Where will the budget make the biggest difference to how you live in the house?

You don’t need a detailed budget before the first conversation. Even saying, “This is roughly what we have to spend. What can we do with it?” gives everyone a much better place to start

What an incredible day out on the range! 🎯

On October 9th, our team and guests gathered at the Valley Gun Club in Paarl for our annual Target Shooting Day. It was fantastic to step away from the drawing boards, test our precision, and enjoy some great camaraderie and networking outdoors.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, competed, and made this event such a success. Swipe through to catch some of the action! 👇

Before you show us the houses you love, show us the bits of your own house that drive you mad.

The school bags that live at the front door because there’s nowhere else for them. The kitchen where everyone somehow ends up standing in the same square metre. The spare room that is an office, laundry and storage room and doing none of those jobs particularly well.

Those things tell us a lot about how you live. A Pinterest folder is useful too. It shows us what you like.

But the better starting point is: “This is the part of the house that isn’t working for us.”

That gives us something real to solve.

Celebrating World Architecture Day 2026 - Housing is a Human Right. Build It.

This World Architecture Day 2026, we reflect on the role architecture can play in creating homes that are not only affordable, but dignified, sustainable and rooted in place.

In the Western Cape, where the demand for accessible housing continues to shape our communities and cities, affordable housing must be more than simply providing shelter. It is about creating places where people can live with dignity, build community and have access to opportunity.

As architects, we have a responsibility to contribute to housing solutions that are thoughtful, inclusive and responsive to the people and places they serve.
Because housing is not a luxury. It is a right.

Architecture is a relationship business.

Projects can run for months, sometimes years, and a lot of that time is spent solving problems, making decisions and working through the inevitable pressures that come with building.

So it was good to spend Friday evening with a few of the contractors and clients we work with, without an agenda, a deadline or a drawing to discuss.

We played some padel, had a few drinks and caught up outside of the projects we’re usually talking about.

We value the people we work with, and we’d like those relationships to extend beyond the next meeting or the next job.

Thanks to everyone who joined us. We’ll leave the commentary on the standard of padel to those who were there.

When should the engineer, interior designer and landscape architect get involved?​

Earlier than many people think.​

It can be tempting to imagine a building project happening in neat stages: first the architect designs the building, then the engineer works out the structure, then the interior is designed and finally someone deals with the landscape.​

Real projects don't work particularly well that way.​

Where a building sits affects how people arrive and move around it. That affects the landscape. The structure affects what is possible inside. Air conditioning, lighting and other services need somewhere to go. A change to one of those things can very quickly affect several others.​

If everyone develops their part separately, the problems tend to appear when those parts are eventually put together.​

By then, changing something can be considerably more difficult and expensive.​

BPAS prefers to bring those conversations together early. On some projects that means architecture, interiors and landscape are being developed alongside one another from the beginning. On others, it means getting the right specialist around the table before a decision is locked in.​

Clients don't need to understand every technical detail involved.​

But it is worth asking at the beginning of a project: Who needs to be involved in this decision now so that we don't have to undo it later?​

That is often a much cheaper question than the one asked on site: How are we going to fix this?
