Geoffrey Wallace Limited
Architects in Barharrow, Dumfries & Galloway, UK
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars18 September 2017
“I worked with Geoff back in 2014 when he designed a pair of semi detached houses for me. I cannot recommend him highly enough; he listened to what I wanted and no adjustment however small was ever any trouble. I truly believe Geoffs expertise resulted in the best possible houses I could have hoped for on the site. His many years of experience shon through and he provided me with invaluable advise throughout my build.. I'd use him again in a heartbeat.”

WK Design Architects
Architects in Barharrow, Dumfries & Galloway, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 November 2014
“We have engaged WK Design to assist us in the design of our new house; this is a very exciting but also stressful process! We found WK Design to be reassuring partners giving us confidence and choice at a time when so many crucial decisions need to be taken. They are able to listen and reflect upon our design choices as well as appreciate our wider needs and respond with a range of creative alternatives which stay true to 'the brief'. They have detailed expert knowledge but are able to communicate it with simple clarity. In terms of liaison with other professionals they enjoy good working relationships with Local Authorities and other agencies and are able to quickly anticipate and resolve potential difficulties.”
Red Raven Design Ltd
Architects in Barharrow, Dumfries & Galloway, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 May 2016
“Red Raven Design designed a whole house refurbishment including first floor extension. It has transformed the house into a much pleasanter and more efficient living space. Darren Ward skillfully created a contemporary design that was sympathetic to the Victorian architecture, using modern design, methods and materials.”
Cooper Architectural
Architects in Barharrow, Dumfries & Galloway, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 August 2019
“Jamie worked with us and listened to our ideas. He explained options, was happy for us to spend time thinking and when our builder made a suggestion that suited him rather than us Jamie was quick to step in. He had a clear idea of what we wanted our pagoda extension for and was quick to point out potentially how dark this could make our kitchen. An excellent light tunnel he designed for our kitchen solved that. We could not be happier.”
White Hill Design Studio LLP
Architects in Barharrow, Dumfries & Galloway, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 January 2018
“WhiteHill Designs have been integral to delivering our dream home. From day one, they have been passionate about capturing and translating our vision into a reality; enhancing it with some great, innovative ideas and exciting approaches to low-impact sustainable living. Their attention to detail at every level has been exceptional; leaving us confident that every angle of the design has been considered carefully and contractors have no confusion or scope for error. Because WHD are a family business, we have always felt reassured that everyone supports each other and works in harmony. Our family would highly recommend WHD; if you’re looking for a company that will guide you through an otherwise complex minefield of legislation and standards and help you bring unusual designs to life, David and his family are the company for you.”

A well-chosen architect can design a home that is specifically tailored to your family's lifestyle. Highly competent and professionally-trained designers, many architects in Barharrow, Dumfries & Galloway, UK also use sustainable design principles to maximise the site and materials used, so your home uses less energy and saves you money in the long term.

If your renovation is more than a simple benchtop replacement or roof re-tiling job, then it may be time to find an architect in Barharrow, Dumfries & Galloway, UK who can manage your project from start to finish. Depending on the architecture firm you hire, the scope can span from planning sustainable design into your renovations, to selecting furniture and even interior finishes.

How do I find the right architect for my home design project?


An architect is often the first person you hire for your project. Before taking steps to find an architect in Barharrow, Dumfries & Galloway, UK, ask yourself what you want to achieve from your renovation or home construction. Do you want to improve the liveability and sustainability of your home, or simply expand? What style of architecture do you prefer? Once you have established your motivation, research architects that have completed similar house designs in your Barharrow locale and within a comparable budget to yours.

Undergoing renovations, house extensions or building a new home entirely can be stressful. For this reason, it’s important that you and your chosen architect get along and share the same values, especially if you require an architect to help you refine your brief. To establish this rapport, you may need to meet several times with the architects on your shortlist before making a final decision on who you hire. The relationship you have with your architect is very personal, and will involve discussions of your habits, hobbies and tastes, so you want to ensure you have picked someone you feel comfortable in sharing this information with.

Most importantly, you need to trust that your architect will manage your home improvement or house design within budget, while working with site constraints, and coordinating the relationships of all parties involved in the project.

Ideally, your Barharrow, Dumfries & Galloway, UK architect will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. Your architect may be needed to select and hire Dumfries & Galloway subcontractors (e.g. builders, engineers and landscape architects) just as they may need to negotiate contracts with stakeholders. A good client-architect relationship will ensure they are your biggest advocate along the way during construction.

Finally, remember that the most well-known or established architect may not provide the right architectural services for your needs. It all comes down to the individual project.
