Creating a home or development that reflects your vision requires more than just a plan. It demands custom architectural services tailored to your unique needs. I focus on delivering designs that inspire and motivate, blending classic charm with modern innovation. This approach ensures every project we undertake in Somerset & Wiltshire stands out.
I guide you through every step, from initial concept to final build. My goal is to make your space functional, beautiful, and perfectly suited to your lifestyle or development goals.
Why Choose Custom Architectural Services?
Custom architectural services offer a level of precision and personalisation that standard designs cannot match. I work closely with you to understand your preferences, site conditions, and budget. This collaboration results in a design that fits your exact requirements.
Here’s what sets custom services apart:
Tailored solutions that reflect your style and needs.
Optimised use of space to enhance functionality.
Integration of local materials and styles to complement the Somerset / Wiltshire environment.
Sustainability considerations to reduce environmental impact.
Compliance with local regulations to ensure smooth approvals.
By choosing custom architectural services, you avoid cookie-cutter designs. Instead, you get a home or development that feels truly yours.

How Much Do Architect Designs Cost?
Understanding the cost of architect designs is crucial for planning your project. Prices vary depending on the scope, complexity, and location. Here’s a breakdown of typical costs:
Initial Consultation - Often free or a small fee to discuss your project.
Concept Design - Usually charged as a fixed fee or hourly rate. Expect £1,000 to £5,000 depending on project size.
Detailed Design and Planning - This phase can cost between 5% and 15% of the total construction budget.
Project Management and Site Visits - Additional fees may apply for overseeing construction.
For example, a modest home extension might cost around £3,000 to £7,000 for full architectural design. Larger developments will require a higher budget.
I recommend setting a clear budget early and discussing it openly. This transparency helps tailor the design process to your financial plan without compromising quality.
The Process of Tailored Architectural Design
The design process is structured yet flexible to accommodate your input at every stage. Here’s how I work:
Initial Meeting: We discuss your vision, site, and budget.
Site Analysis: I assess the location’s conditions, orientation, and constraints.
Concept Development: I create sketches and 3D models (Where required) to visualise ideas.
Design Refinement: We review and adjust the design based on your feedback.
Planning Submission: I prepare and submit all necessary documents for approval.
Construction Drawings: Detailed plans guide builders during construction.
Project Support: I provide ongoing advice and site visits to ensure design integrity.
This process guarantees a design that meets your expectations and complies with local standards.
