How to Balance Aesthetics and Functionality in Design
As residential architects, we explore strategies to combine beauty, practicality, and long-term value in your home design.
Architectural design that will bring your dream home to life.
We’re architects based in Hampshire, Surrey and Dorset who will turn your vision into a reality. Whether it’s a new build, an extension, or a conversion, our team is dedicated to infusing your project with creativity, precision, and tailored expertise.
Architecture that reflects your vision.
Whether you’re envisaging a bespoke new build, a transformative extension, or an innovative loft conversion, your journey begins with a creative partnership with an architect you can trust.
We pride ourselves on our ability to translate your architectural dreams into tangible reality. This process is guided by a blend of creativity, precision, and personalised attention to detail. We listen attentively to your ideas, understand your requirements, and collaborate closely with you to bring your vision to life.
With creativity at the heart of everything we do, we strive to push boundaries, challenge conventions and explore innovative design solutions that will exceed your expectations.
Beautifully designed homes that bring families together.
Every home has the potential to feel more comfortable, more spacious and more in tune with everyday life. We start by understanding what you want your home to achieve, then explore the ideas and improvements that will make the biggest difference.
From gaining planning approval to creating more space with an extension, refreshing older rooms or transforming unused areas, each service is designed to help your home work better for you. The focus is always on thoughtful design, clear communication and a process that feels well-supported from start to finish.
We are a team of architectural designers.
We go beyond designing your dream space, we offer comprehensive project management services.
From liaising with local planning authorities and dealing with complex planning applications, all the way through to overseeing construction.
Our goal is to provide a hassle-free experience, turning the complexity of building into a seamless journey.
We treat every client like they are our only client, and we strive to improve the quality of your daily life with spaces that truly mean something to you.
We're planning and regulation experts
Converting a space isn’t just about the physical transformation; it’s about breathing new life into every corner and crevice.
However, the success of such projects often hinges on understanding and navigating the maze of planning permissions and regulations, including the notable Class Q for agricultural building conversions.
Our team not only excels in architectural design but also specialises in navigating planning permissions, ensuring your project complies with all local regulations.
If your project requires a Permitted Development Certificate or full planning permission, we’re here to guide you through every stage.
