A design practice belongs under 71111, or 71112 for planning and landscape work. Division 41 and 43 codes describe businesses that physically build. Companies House does not police the choice. One thing does matter: the title architect is legally protected in the UK by the Architects Registration Board. Only ARB-registered individuals may use it, whatever SIC code the company holds.
