Everything Needed to Source and Build the Approved Model

The model, review visuals, inventory and instructions are prepared around the approved design. The examples below are genuine Belle-Ve Bricks work; exact file layouts vary by project.

Design-Only Gives Your Team Control After Approval

The design standard stays focused on a practical, buildable result. The difference is who takes responsibility for sourcing, sorting and physical delivery after approval.

Design-only

You want the technical package and control the rest.

  • You have an internal builder, procurement route or preferred supplier.
  • You are comfortable ordering individual building parts.
  • You want purchasing to remain under your own budget or schedule.
  • You need professional files for an internal or one-off build.
  • You do not need us to pack or distribute physical sets.

Complete supply

You want one team to manage the physical work too.

  • You do not want to compare and place parts orders yourself.
  • You need parts counted, checked and organised for building.
  • You require packaging, printing or multiple identical sets.
  • You have a firm delivery date or multiple recipients.
  • You want a ready-to-build kit or completed display model.

A controlled design process

Five Decisions, Fixed in the Right Order

You see and approve the model before the technical handover is finalised. Each stage resolves the decisions needed for the next one.

  1. 01Brief

    Share what you already have.

    Send photographs, plans, links, dimensions, brand assets, sketches or a short explanation of the idea and its purpose.

    A practical design direction
  2. 02Scope

    Agree the model and deliverables.

    We assess scale, complexity, intended use, file requirements and the person or team who will build it.

    A defined scope and clear quote
  3. 03Design

    Review the digital model.

    We balance likeness, detail, stability, buildability and part availability, then provide approval renders for focused feedback.

    An approved final design
  4. 04Files

    Prepare the technical package.

    Once approved, we finalise the inventory, build sequence, PDF instructions and any agreed image or exchange formats.

    Aligned final files
  5. 05Handover

    Source and build with support.

    Your package is delivered digitally. You control purchasing and assembly while our team remains available for agreed aftercare.

A Flat Brand Mark Became a Model the Client Could Source and Build

The brief was to turn a company pagoda logo into a compact display model while keeping the silhouette and layered structure recognisable.

We supplied the finished digital design, building instructions and full parts list. The client then used those files to purchase the parts themselves.

“I am so happy with how this turned out.”

Clear division of responsibility

No Ambiguity After Handover

The quote defines the technical deliverables and the physical work that remains with your team.

Belle-Ve Bricks handles

  • Brief development and feasibility guidance
  • Digital model design and structural planning
  • Approval renders and agreed refinements
  • Exact inventory and digital instructions
  • Clarification and agreed aftercare

You or your supplier handles

  • Part purchasing and supplier selection
  • Shipping, taxes and marketplace terms
  • Receiving, checking and sorting orders
  • Physical assembly and final build checks
  • Physical test-building unless quoted separately
  • Packaging, distribution or resale activity

Need the physical work later?

The approved design can move into complete supply.

If you later want us to source, check, pack and deliver the parts, we can quote the wider commission against the approved design rather than restarting the project from zero.

The Same Design Discipline, Two Different Handovers

Choose according to what you want to manage after approval. If the answer is unclear, send the rough idea and we will recommend the leanest suitable route.

Clear commercial scope

Business projects typically start from £2,000 or the EUR/USD equivalent.

Premium private commissions are assessed individually.

Design-only projects are quoted individually because model scale, geometry, detail and instruction complexity determine the work involved. Your quote defines the deliverables, revision stages, schedule, aftercare scope and final file formats before work begins.

Physical parts are not included. You pay suppliers directly when sourcing the approved inventory, so stock, shipping, taxes and marketplace charges remain under your control.

01 · Scale & geometry
Overall size, proportion, structure and complexity of the subject.
02 · Detail level
The number of recognisable features, colours, curves and custom details that matter.
03 · Build sequence
How much instruction planning and sub-assembly logic the final model requires.
04 · File requirements
Standard PDF and inventory outputs or additional formats required by your workflow.
05 · Validation scope
Any physical prototype, test build or specialist checking agreed beyond the standard digital service.

Before you enquire

Design-Only Questions, Answered Clearly

You do not need to settle every technical detail first. Share the references and intended outcome, then we will identify what needs to be defined.

Discuss your model idea
What exactly will I receive?

Your standard package includes the approved digital model, approval renders, an exact parts inventory and step-by-step PDF building instructions. Any additional source or exchange formats are confirmed in your quote.

Is every model designed to be buildable?

Yes. Connections, structure, scale, build order and realistic parts availability are considered throughout the digital design. Physical test-building is not included by default and is quoted separately when the model or production plan requires it.

Can you design around a budget, size or part limit?

Yes. Share fixed constraints at the start and we will shape the scale, detail level and construction around them. If the targets conflict, we explain the trade-off and recommend the strongest practical route.

Are revisions included?

Yes. Your quote states the approval stages and revision scope before work begins. This keeps feedback focused and makes clear what is included if the brief changes substantially.

Which file formats are supplied?

Building instructions are supplied as a PDF, renders as standard image files and the inventory as an itemised parts list. If your supplier or internal workflow needs a specific import or exchange format, tell us before quotation so it can be confirmed in the deliverables.

What happens if a part is difficult to source?

We design with sourcing in mind and can help identify sensible substitutions if availability changes. Any replacement needs to preserve the required connection, colour intent and structural role.

Can I upgrade to a complete kit later?

Yes. If you later ask us to source, check, sort and supply the parts, we can quote the wider commission against the approved design rather than restarting the design work from zero.

Can I reproduce or sell the design?

Tell us the intended use, quantity and distribution route before quotation. Commercial production, resale, exclusivity or wider usage rights are stated in the agreed project scope rather than assumed from the standard design-only handover.
