2.Accounting policies
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland' and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. The disclosure requirements of Section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies (see note 3).
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The Company's forecasts, taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance, show that the Company should be able to operate within its current working capital facilities. In common with other businesses in the architectural profession, the Company's forecasts include a certain amount of fee income that is not secured at the date of approval of these financial statements. However, based on historic and current trading, the directors expect the Company to be able to achieve those projected fees.
The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements. The directors have considered a period in excess of twelve months from the date of the approval of these financial statements in making their assessment.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
The Company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Company has no further payment obligations.
The contributions are recognised as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Statement of Financial Position. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Company in independently administered funds.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
The company only enters into basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties and loans to related parties.
Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between an asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. If a financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract.
For financial assets measured at cost less impairment, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between an asset's carrying amount and best estimate of the recoverable amount, which is an approximation of the amount that the company would receive for the asset if it were to be sold at the reporting date.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the Statement of Financial Position when there is an enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
(i) Assessing indicators of impairment
In assessing whether there have been any indicators of impairment of assets, the directors have considered both external and internal sources of information such as market conditions, counterparty credit ratings and experience of recoverability and where applicable, the ability of the asset to be operated as planned. There have been no indicators of impairment identified during the current financial year.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
(i) Determining the stage of completion of ongoing projects at the year end
In assessing the level of completion of architectural design projects ongoing at the year end, the directors have considered the time costs of employees working on those projects, as well as the amounts billed in fees in relation to each project up to the year end. The directors believe, based upon their knowledge and experience of similar projects over the years that the correct amount of profit has been recognised and the amounts recognised as billed in advance or work in progress are appropriate.
For Professional Indemnity Insurance, the Company is a member of a mutual insurance fund where the company shares in any surpluses or deficits of the fund. At the start of each policy year an Advance Call is made by each member into the fund. Once the policy year is closed any surplus is returned to the members by way of a Return Call, if there is a deficit a Supplementary Call is paid by the members into the fund. These surpluses or deficits are notified to the company in arrears and at 31 December 2024 three policy years up to and including policy year ending 30 June 2020 were closed which had led to a Supplementary call on the members. This amounted to a cost of £30,846, recognised in cost of sales.

Profit and loss account

Contributions totalling £Nil (2023: £Nil) were payable to the fund at the reporting date and are included in creditors.
As discussed in note 5, the Company is a member of a mutual insurance fund where the company shares in any surpluses or deficits of the fund.
