These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern the provision of design‑review services by the Bureau of Space (“the Bureau”, “we”, “our”, “us”). By submitting a request for review or engaging with our services, you (“the Client”) acknowledge and agree to the following conditions.

1. Scope of Services

1.1 The Bureau provides independent secondary assessments of architectural plans, spatial layouts, and associated design documentation.
1.2 Reviews are conducted in accordance with the Bureau’s established assessment procedures and may include commentary on spatial efficiency, functional performance, and opportunities for optimisation.
1.3 The Bureau does not provide architectural design services, drafting, engineering, or regulatory approvals. Our role is limited to independent evaluation and advisory commentary.

2. Submission Requirements

2.1 Clients must provide all relevant plans, documents, and supporting materials necessary for the Bureau to conduct a review.
2.2 The Bureau may decline to commence or complete a review where documentation is incomplete, illegible, or insufficient for assessment.

3. Service Timeframes

3.1 Review timeframes may vary depending on the complexity of the submitted materials.
3.2 The Bureau will make reasonable efforts to complete assessments within indicative timeframes but does not guarantee specific delivery dates unless expressly agreed in writing.

4. Client Responsibilities

4.1 The Client is responsible for ensuring the accuracy and legality of all submitted materials.

4.2 The Client acknowledges that the Bureau’s assessment is advisory in nature and does not replace professional architectural, engineering, or regulatory guidance.

5. Limitation of Liability and Scope of Responsibility

5.1 The Client acknowledges that the Bureau of Space provides advisory commentary only, based solely on the documentation supplied by the Client. The Bureau does not undertake, guarantee, or certify the accuracy, completeness, regulatory compliance, or technical sufficiency of any submitted materials.

5.2 The Bureau’s assessments are non‑binding opinions intended to highlight potential opportunities for spatial or functional improvement. They do not constitute architectural, engineering, structural, regulatory, or financial advice, nor should they be relied upon as a substitute for professional services in those fields.

5.3 The Bureau accepts no responsibility or liability for any decisions, actions, omissions, project outcomes, construction activities, financial impacts, or regulatory consequences arising from the Client’s use of, or reliance upon, the Bureau’s assessment findings.

5.4 The Bureau is not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, exemplary, or special loss or damage, including but not limited to construction defects, cost overruns, delays, design errors, compliance failures, or project performance issues, regardless of whether such outcomes are connected to or informed by the Bureau’s review.

5.5 The Client remains solely responsible for obtaining all necessary professional advice, regulatory approvals, technical certifications, and compliance checks relevant to their project. The Bureau bears no obligation to verify or validate any aspect of the Client’s design, documentation, or project execution.

5.6 To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Bureau’s total liability, whether in contract, tort, equity, or otherwise, is strictly limited to the amount paid by the Client for the specific review to which the claim relates.

6. Amendments

6.1 The Bureau may update these Terms periodically to reflect operational, procedural, or regulatory changes.
6.2 Continued use of the Bureau’s services constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

7. Client Acknowledgements

6.1 The Client acknowledges that the Bureau of Space operates solely as an independent reviewer providing non‑binding advisory commentary on spatial efficiency, functional performance, and related design considerations.

6.2 The Client confirms that all design, construction, regulatory, financial, and technical decisions remain entirely their responsibility and that the Bureau’s assessments do not constitute, replace, or supplement architectural, engineering, structural, legal, or compliance‑related advice.

6.3 The Client acknowledges that the Bureau does not verify the accuracy, completeness, or regulatory sufficiency of any submitted documentation and relies entirely on the materials provided by the Client for the purpose of forming its advisory opinions.

6.4 The Client accepts that any implementation, modification, or reliance upon the Bureau’s findings is undertaken at the Client’s sole discretion and risk, and that the Bureau bears no responsibility for project outcomes, construction activities, regulatory determinations, or financial impacts arising from such reliance.

6.5 The Client agrees to obtain all necessary professional advice, technical certifications, and regulatory approvals from appropriately qualified practitioners and understands that the Bureau has no role in, or responsibility for, these processes.

6.6 By engaging the Bureau’s services, the Client expressly acknowledges and accepts the limitations of the Bureau’s role and the extent of the Bureau’s liability as outlined in these Terms.
