Featured Reviews for London, UK Architects

DDWH Architects

London, UK Architects

13August,2014

“we asked for the complete refurbishment and extension of our townhouse, including complete removal of ground floor walls and re-build to new layout and extension, new staircases, and amended front elevation. Warren @ DDWH helped us re-design the house completely to our spec and showed us some new ideas in how to optimize what we needed. Improving concepts and ideas such as large master en-suite, new stairway and storage space. He and his team also helped with suggestions for fittings and finishes. We had their help during construction too. Many issues and problems were solved or avoided by their suggestions and discussions with us and the builders.”

Martins Camisuli Architects

London, UK Architects

24June,2015

“Martins Camisuli designed and project managed a new kitchen project in my home. I wanted something individual and crafted. It involved complete remodelling of the space, removal of walls and the design and manufacture of bespoke kitchen units. They were responsive to my ideas, creative and enthusiastic. I found it very easy to communicate with them and the works were completed on time and on budget. I think the choice of materials and overall design are warm simple and enduring. I would be very happy to have the opportunity use them again.”

Dominic McKenzie Architects

London, UK Architects

23March,2017

“Dominic designed a beautiful kitchen extension for us which has made brilliant use of the space and which we continue to appreciate on a daily basis four years after the job was finished. He worked collaboratively with us on the design and provided very clear and detailed plans, as well as more artistic visuals so we could get a feel for how things would look. The latter really captured our imaginations and sustained us through the times when the back of the house was off in mid-winter! His artistic as well as architectural training meant that he really thought about the aesthetic details - and he respected our wishes in the few cases where we wanted to depart from his suggestions, including accommodating a table football. Dominic persuaded us to think about design options that wouldn't have occurred to us - like digging down to create more head room. This was expensive but we are glad we went for it. Dominic worked well with our own builders who commented on how well specified the tender documents were. We did have a problems with two sub-contractors sourced by Dominic but these were ultimately resolved.”

Bruno Paolucci Architecture

London, UK Architects

3June,2019

“Bruno designed and managed a rear extension to my house in Hackney. He came up with a detailed design and brief for the builder, was punctual, dealt with any problems promptly and was very helpful. Although I started planning with him 2 years before I started the project he did not increase the agreed fee. My new living space is great and I highly recommend Bruno.”

“Alex and Helen are incredibly talented architects. We collaborated on a recent project together and we were impressed by the standard of their work. Communication was excellent. They provided solutions during critical stages of the construction phase promptly and efficiently. From a contractor's point of view, we were truly impressed how comprehensive and helpful the drawing package was.Thank you very much for the amazing job. We believe this is the start of an excellent relationship.”

REES Architects

London, UK Architects

23October,2014

“Rees+Lee designed my kitchen extension and helped me with the internal design of the kitchen and playroom, helping to maximise space. They were always on hand for advise and I felt they had my best interest at heart. They gave great advise and helped source all of the internal and external design fixtures and fittings. Their advise on aesthetics was brilliant, which helped me make important decisions that I wasn't confident making on my own. My experience with Rees+Lee was great, I would highly recommend this company.”

Trevor Brown Architect

London, UK Architects

14October,2015

“Trevor Brown was a pleasure to work with. We started with a humble idea of replacing a structurally unsound kitchen with something a bit nicer, and he transformed the project into a fabulous piece of architecture. Trevor is knowledgeable, and has an ambitious attitude to even simple projects. By paying attention to both the structure and the details of the kitchen, Trevor created a space which is a beautiful space and also very functional. Trevor is a busy man, but he replied to emails, and answered the phone when we had queries. He worked well with the construction team and they were able to take a pragmatic approach to solving problems along the way. We exceeded the original budget, but that was at least in part because we chose more expensive options when Trevor offered us choices.”

Beacham Architects

London, UK Architects

4June,2018

“We engaged Beacham Architects to assist us in planning and designing a ground-floor extension to our family home. We thoroughly enjoyed working with Mike in the design phase, during which he spent time listening to and understanding our goals and budget. He then presented us with a range of options for making better use of our downstairs space and garden and worked closely with our builder to ensure that the chosen design was properly implemented. Mike's assistance was also invaluable in the process of obtaining planning permission. We are absolutely delighted with the results of the work, which has created a light and flexible kitchen and family area at the rear of our home, as well as incorporating the garden, which now feels like a further extension of our living space.”

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 London, 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 London, 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 London 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 London, 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 Greater London 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.
