Alicante and Costa Blanca architectural design for overseas owners

AS Global supports expats and international owners planning residential work in Alicante province and along the Costa Blanca. We develop villa, apartment and new-home designs online, then coordinate the drawings with the locally authorised professionals required for municipal approval and technical certification.

Architectural drawing services across the Costa Blanca

Our remote service can support projects in Alicante, Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa, Jávea or Xàbia, Dénia, Calpe, Altea, Benidorm, Moraira, Teulada, Benissa and surrounding municipalities. Planning controls differ by municipality and property, particularly between urban and rural land, so every enquiry begins with the exact location.

Residential projects we can help develop

Alicante planning and property constraints to check early

The feasibility of a proposal may depend on land classification, the municipal plan, permitted use, plot size, buildability, occupancy, setbacks, height, protected landscape or coastal constraints, existing services and the recorded legality of current buildings. Community-of-owners rules can also affect apartments and shared developments.

Rural or suelo rústico property requires particular caution. Do not rely only on estate-agent particulars or the physical presence of an existing structure. Local planning, legal and survey advice should establish what is recorded and what alterations may be permitted.

Online design, local verification

We can create design options, plans, elevations, sections and 3D studies from reliable survey information. Where Spanish law or the local authority requires a registered architect, técnico, engineer or other professional to sign, certify, submit or supervise, the client must appoint that locally authorised role. Our drawings can be coordinated with their requirements.

Our Costa Blanca project workflow

1. Define the property and ambition

Provide the address, property documentation, available surveys or plans, photographs and a clear description of the intended work.

2. Develop the proposal remotely

Review layouts and design options online. We record revisions and develop the selected proposal into the agreed drawing package.

3. Coordinate approval and construction information

The drawing package is shared with the local team for jurisdiction-specific checking, translation, engineering, submission, costing or construction development as required.

Frequently asked questions

Does a Costa Blanca swimming pool need approval?

Pools commonly require municipal approval and coordinated technical information. Boundary distances, drainage, safety, land classification and existing plot development can affect feasibility, so obtain property-specific local advice before committing.

Can you design my Alicante property while I am in the UK?

Yes. Clients can brief, review and approve design work online. Reliable measured information must be provided, and local statutory or site roles are appointed separately where required.

Can drawings help assess unauthorised existing work?

Accurate as-built drawings can support a professional assessment, but they do not make work lawful. A local architect, lawyer or técnico and the municipality must advise whether regularisation is possible.
