Design Process

Faldo Design offers comprehensive golf course architectural services ranging from conceptual and detailed design of new courses to the remodelling and/or redesign of existing ones.  Headed by our Managing Director Nick Edmund and Directors of Architecture Andrew Haggar and Guy Hockley, the firm has extensive international experience in the industry.  We offer advice and guidance to our Clients at every stage of a golf project’s development – from initial analysis and planning to completion of construction and the opening or re-opening of the golf course.

Our Portfolio of work displays a broad selection of our completed and current golf course design projects and clearly shows the range of experience we have in various types of development.  Faldo Design’s significant involvement in these diverse projects affords us the opportunity to offer additional services to our Clients that complement those of golf course design, such as masterplanning, project management and golf course construction management.

  1. Stage 1

    Site Analysis

    Analysis of site characteristics and project parameters, followed by the provision of a preliminary golf course routing plan and initial design concepts

  2. Stage 2

    Conceptual Design

    Conceptual design development and the creation of a detailed Golf Course Master Plan encompassing compatible, clean, logical, and creative solutions to all project and ecological requirements.

  3. Stage 3

    Detailed Design and Specification

    Production of detailed design documentation and construction specifications. A comprehensive set of precise working drawings and plans is provided.

  4. Stage 4

    Construction Contract Tender

    We will recommend suitable contractors and / or assist a client to pre-qualify suitable contractors to tender for the construction of the golf course and assist in evaluation of bids. We are also able to assist clients to assemble teams of specialist golf course construction personnel, including experienced site managers and shapers, or alternatively we can offer a full Golf Course Construction Management service.

  5. Stage 5

    Construction Monitoring

    A regular schedule of site visits by our architects and Nick Faldo throughout the construction and grow-in period is agreed with our clients. When fully grown-in and at an appropriate date for marketing, Nick Faldo will officially open the golf course.
