Co&Co Architects

Anthony at Co and Co has worked for us in collaboration with Benjamin Hale architects to gain planning for a striking coastal lookout tower. He is talented, sympathetic and responsive to our demands as clients. He also knows when to push our boundaries with regard to design, and when to nudge us back to reality with regard to budget.

Anthony has been friendly, responsive, professional and informative throughout the whole design process. He has listened to our ideas and needs, and shared his own knowledge and ideas in an adaptable and approachable way. This is our first building project, and Anthony has helped us to understand the process at every stage, happily answering our questions. He has seen us smoothly past planning and into the finalised design stage. We are now at the stage of going out to tender, and we can't wait to see the finished project.

We are so pleased we chose Co&Co Architects to help turn our dream home into a reality. Anthony has been great to work with. After listening to our ideas and bringing his own to the table, we were so happy with the final design. It’s been exciting watch the project take place, and Anthony has been a constant source of reassurance, when things didn’t quite go to plan, as they often do when building a home. We would definitely use Co&Co Architects for any future projects.

Co&Co are a fantastic company to work with. Anthony was receptive to all ideas, worked quickly to reflect the small timeframe we had and produced brilliant, thoughtful and contemporary work. I highly recommend anyone looked for an architect to arrange a consultation with Co&Co.

I met with multiple architects before Anthony at Co&Co, each time I was disappointed that they simply didn't seem to understand what we were trying to achieve or were overwhelmed by the scale of the challenge lacking the ambition to bring change to solve the problems. He has always understood the potential that we saw in our home, despite it's rather odd layout with the many additions since the first construction in 1771, alongside a split into 2 residences in recent years - nicknamed the "frankenhouse" He listened, understood the bigger picture of what we wanted to achieve and then brought new ideas to us. Having lived in the property for a couple of years we had had plenty of time to think about what we wanted but he skilfully pulled out the elements that made sense and helped us to see how to balance the old with the new. I have no doubt we've not been the easiest of clients, having some strongly held opinions, however his grace in navigating the discussions and helping us to find a way to weave together practicality with good design and flow has ensured a good relationship and excellent outcome. We finally have a design that we're excited about thanks to Co&Co

Ant helped us to bring all of our ideas to life for our side return extension in Bristol. We wanted to reconfigure the downstairs of our mid terrace victorian property to include a modern, minimalist open plan kitchen and diner with plenty of light, efficient storage options to hide away our family clutter, a big dining area and for the inside to continue to the outside via bi-fold doors and consistent tiles. Throughout the planning process, Ant has gone over and above expectations to walk us through what needs to happen when, provided very clear information and been readily available on video/calls/emails whenever we have any questions. We’ve been in frequent communication to work through each of the stages efficiently too. He has also communicated directly with our appointed builder, and has introduced us to a QS and other contacts which has been a huge help. Ant shared a number of design options to bring our ideas to life, as well as helping us with details such as external tiling, roof options, glass and timber. Highly professional and creative architect that understood our brief but delivered plans that exceeded our expectations and very pleasantly surprised our builders.

A sophisticated, hard-working architectural practice which we had the pleasure of working with to deliver a truly unique and appealing project in Birmingham. Anthony is a professional through and through, we really enjoyed working with him.

Anthony is a smashing Architect who I have worked with on a number of occasions. He is attentive, creative and dedicated to ensuring clients achieve exactly what they have been looking for and more beyond.

Anthony understood our brief from the beginning and gave us several options that made clever use of the space. He came up with some great ideas and the finished project has transformed our home- we are very happy. We only had a limited budget and Anthony helped to make sure we stayed within our budget, making suggestions that would save us money along the way. Anthony provided an excellent service with good communication at all times. We really enjoyed working with him and would highly recommend Co& Co Architects.
