Residential design that elevates .
Designing Homes with a Personal Touch
We specialise in residential architecture and believe in the potential of every building and evolution that blends aesthetic vision with practical innovation. Our work is wide-ranging and recent projects include modest garage conversions and rear extensions, double storey side and rear extensions through to complete strip-outs and whole property rebuilds. Our collaborative approach ensures every design not only looks exceptional but also functions seamlessly — enhancing comfort, energy efficiency, and long-term value.
We believe successful architecture starts with technical excellence. That’s why we integrate advanced techniques including 3D modelling, BIM technology, and detailed CAD drawings to translate your ideas into buildable, cost-effective realities.
Whether you’re planning a modern family home, a heritage property restoration, or a sustainable residential development, our experience and technical expertise ensure your vision is realised with clarity, compliance, and craftsmanship. We don’t just design buildings — we create spaces that elevate everyday living.

key stages
01/ Brief & feasibility study
At the start of every project, we dive deep into your vision, turning your ideas into a clear design brief. We then explore what’s possible through feasibility studies, weighing budgets, site conditions, and local and national planning policies. This early work sets the stage for a smooth, confident design process, helping bring your dream home or building project to life without surprises.
02/ Concept design
During the concept design stage, we turn your ideas and lifestyle needs into a tangible vision for your home. This is where your dreams start to take shape—layouts, spatial flow, and key design features are explored and refined. We work with you to ensure the design not only looks stunning but also feels right for the way you live.
03/ Planning
Navigating the planning process for extensions or renovations can feel overwhelming, but we guide you every step of the way. From preparing and submitting applications to ensuring your project meets local and national planning regulations, we make sure your plans have the best chance of approval—keeping your project on track and stress-free.
04/ Technical design
During the technical design phase, we turn your concept into detailed, buildable plans. Every element is carefully developed to meet current building regulations and align with LABC standards, ensuring safety, quality, and compliance. This stage provides contractors with precise instructions, so your project is delivered smoothly, on time, and exactly as envisioned.
05/ Construction
Once the designs are finalized, we help you navigate contracts and prepare for the construction phase. This includes selecting trusted contractors, agreeing on timelines, and setting clear expectations to protect your investment. Throughout construction, we oversee progress, ensure quality, and address any issues, making sure your home is built smoothly, safely, and to the highest standard.
06/ Completion & handover
At the completion stage, we ensure your project is finished to the highest standard and fully compliant with regulations, including the requirements of the Safer Buildings Act. We oversee final inspections, secure completion certificates, and guide you through the sign-off process, giving you peace of mind that your new or renovated home is safe, legal, and ready to enjoy.
Our approach and our fees
Planning a house extension is often misunderstood as simply paying for drawings. In reality, it’s a structured professional process built on independent judgement, experience, technical knowledge, and a deep understanding of planning policy. From the very first conversation, a well-managed project follows a defined pathway—starting with feasibility and briefing, through design development and planning, and into technical detailing and construction support.
This article breaks down each stage of the journey, explaining how time-based fees are calculated, why a detailed brief is essential, and how early feasibility studies help manage expectations, budgets, and planning risk. It explores the role of national and local planning policy, site constraints, protected landscapes, and permitted development rights—factors that can significantly influence what is achievable.
You’ll also gain clarity on the different levels of service available, from planning-only design to full technical and construction-stage involvement, and why fees cannot be meaningfully estimated without first understanding the scope. If you’re considering extending or renovating your home and want an honest, transparent explanation of what’s involved—and why—this guide sets out the process clearly, realistically, and without selling the dream at any cost.
