What it includes
Architecture and engineering design
From preliminary study to construction drawings, coordinating the specialist disciplines whenever the project requires them: structure, building services, thermal, acoustics, HVAC and fire safety.
Permits and legalisation
We prepare and submit the application to the municipality, answer the consulted bodies and follow the request through to the decision. We also regularise existing buildings.
Financial and technical feasibility studies
Before you invest, we assess what can be built or rehabilitated, which planning constraints apply and what order of magnitude of investment to expect.
How the process works
Meeting and survey
We get to know the plot or building, the brief and the budget, and check the constraints of the applicable municipal plan.
Preliminary study and feasibility
We present the base solution and the technical and financial analysis, so you can decide before moving forward.
Permit design and specialities
We develop the architecture drawings and coordinate the required specialist disciplines.
Submission and follow-up
We file the application, follow the municipality's responses and prepare the construction drawings.

Frequently asked questions
What do I need to request a design proposal?
It helps to know the location of the plot or property, what you want to build or change, and your budget. If you have the property record or land-registry certificate, send it over; we help gather the rest.
How long does a building permit take?
It depends on the municipality, the type of procedure and how well the application is prepared. In the initial assessment we give you a realistic timeline for your case.
Does FYB design outside the Ribatejo region?
Yes. FYB is based in Vila Nova da Barquinha and serves clients across Portugal, with projects in Batalha, Porto de Mós, Constância and Cascais, for example.
Have a plot or a building to design?
