I've worked with Matt Giles since 2006. He has commissioned me to photograph lots of his projects over the years. Not only are they amazingly projects and thoughtfully designed homes, the finish is superb and when I meet his clients to take the pictures they are always so happy with the work and the attention to detail he and his team give them.

I would highly recommend Matthew Giles Architects as the architect for your project! They work closely with their clients and are always looking to incorporate unique architectural proposals and ensure every project stands out. As a structural engineer, working with them makes for much more interesting and challenging structural engineering solutions. Having worked with Viviana, she has been a delight to work with! I look forward to a working on more exciting projects with them.

Matt, Mike and his whole team have been incredible. They bring exactly the right balance of creative and considerate energy to every interaction we have had with them. Their architectural vision is sublime, but they ground it in really thoughtful scrutiny of every aspect of the project: from costs, to aesthetics, to the practicalities of how we live in the space. We can't praise them highly enough.

Great to work alongside MGA's team! They take care of amazing projects while keeping attention to all aspects along the way, including planning ahead for Home Technology Integration. No matter how big the project is, there is always a dedicated focus allocation to every element of it!

Matthew Giles Architects were brilliant with our garden house - so good, in fact, we’ve asked them to help us with a complete refit of our house in London and holiday home in Cornwall.

Matt and Lu worked on our full house redevelopment and we could not be happier with the final result. They have such a great energy and are genuinely great to work with. They took our traditional Edwardian home and, while being sympathetic to its history, transformed it into something that is both original and breathtaking in its design. I love retaining original features but I also believe that buildings need to move forward and adapt to withstand the test of time. Matt and Lu managed to do this while always keeping an eye to how it would stay in keeping with its environment. I can highly recommend working with them.

After many years of thinking and planning remodelling our house with various other archtects and builders we approached Matthew Giles following a newspaper advert. Matt and Ellen came up with a design that fullfilled our desires after a brief outline discussion and removed many of the compromises that marred our previous attempts. Matt and Ellen were great at guiding us through the whole planning and building process as we had no previous experience of such a large project. Strongly recommended.

We have been working with Matthew and his team for about 15 years, the design and site management is first class and the end product is beautiful.

Matt and Ellen helped us navigate planners, builders, and COVID, in the renovation of our Victorian terrace house in Battersea. After a rather long process (exacerbated by the pandemic) we finally moved in, and we are delighted with the result.

Used for 2 projects - managed to sort out a tricky problem during sale of last one ( not his fault - builders ) - and this house 10 years on still looks lovely , modern but also somewhat classic
