Services

Shipshape is an architecture and design practice working across residential, commercial, workplace, hospitality and small development projects throughout the Caribbean.

We can support a project from the first idea through to construction, or step in at a specific stage where design, coordination or local architectural input is needed.

Innovative Design

We provide architectural design for residential, hospitality and development projects, from early feasibility and site planning through concept design, planning, detailed design and construction. Our approach balances spatial quality and practicality with a careful response to climate, landscape, context and the way people experience and use a place.

Architecture

We design interiors as an integral part of the architecture, creating thoughtful, functional spaces shaped around how people live and work. From space planning and interior layouts to kitchens, bathrooms, joinery, lighting, furniture and finishes, we bring the elements together into a cohesive whole.

Interior Architecture & Space Planning

We rethink existing buildings to make them work better, feel better and respond to changing needs. From residential renovations and extensions to commercial fit-outs and adaptive reuse, we bring together spatial reconfiguration, materials, building upgrades and new services to give existing spaces a new life.

Renovations & Adaptation

We create workplaces that balance functionality, identity and the experience of the people who use them. From early workplace strategy and space planning through fit-out design, furniture, finishes and technical coordination, we shape practical, engaging environments that support how teams work.

Workplace Design

We help clients understand the potential of a site, property or idea before committing to a larger project. Through site studies, development options, preliminary layouts and early planning advice, we explore what is possible and establish a clear direction for the project.

Spatial Strategy & Feasibility

We provide focused architectural input for projects where a client or international design team needs experienced support in Barbados and the wider Caribbean. This can include local architectural and technical review, planning coordination, consultant coordination and construction-stage advice.
