I can't speak highly enough of Debbie and the team at LSO. I met with four architects prior to embarking on our design journey and instantly knew that Debbie had grasped exactly what we were trying to achieve. LSO were brilliant at all stages; from the initial sketches, to planning, recommending structural engineers and building inspectors along with the tender process for the builder. The builder was very complementary of Debbie's drawings and we've finished up with a home that totally exceeded our expectations. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Debbie and would absolutely sign LSO up for our next project!

If you are looking to modernise your dated property, then LSO architects are the people for you. We were recommended Debbie by a friend and are 100% happy we went with the recommendation. We already had plans for our property but weren't happy with them. After talking with Debbie we decided to go with her for a re-design and after listening to our ideas/wishes, she came up with a beautiful modern addition to our 1930's property. She was great at offering advise regarding different materials which we could use, and lead us through the initial process of planning permission and building regs. She was also happy to discuss the plans with our builders, and together they produced a wonderful addition to our property. Thank you Debbie.

We worked with LSO to help design a contemporary kitchen diner and redesign of the ground floor of our home in Bradway. Debbie was great to deal with, very professional and presented us with lots of ideas to help us focus on making the most of our space, maximising light and choosing the right materials for the finished design. We are delighted with the results and the service received. Would highly recommend.

Wouldn't hesitate to recommend LSO Architects. From beginning to end everybody I have dealt with has been helpful, friendly and professional. We had a very tight deadline but this hasn't proved to be a problem - work starts tomorrow! Looking forward to having my dream kitchen. Thank you Debbie and team :-)

Debbie was really responsive and understood our needs from our first meeting onwards. She made sure we got a design that did what we wanted, fitted our budget and helped us find excellent builders.

LSO Architects designed our loft conversion, completed this summer. Debbie and her team were extremely helpful, professional and willing to answer our questions, turning our drawings around to meet a tight deadline. Thanks to the advice they gave and the suggestions made about how to get the best use of the space, we now have a spacious and light extra bedroom and bathroom that we love. They also recommended the builders and structural engineer we used for the project who did a fantastic job for us.

Worked with Sara Darwin on the design of two extensions to our 1980s home. Project date April 2015. We asked Sara to devise a bathroom design and a single storey kitchen dining extension that opens up the rear of the house to a sunny garden. From the outset she understood our needs exactly and what we wanted to achieve within our budget which was under £60k. We would thoroughly recommend Sara Darwin to anyone looking for a creative and client-driven architect. The extension that she designed for us has enhanced our home and everyday use of our living space, and we wouldn't hesitate to work with her again.

Debbie has designed single storey side and rear extensions to our 3 bed, 1920s semi and remodelled the interior. She was recommended by a friend who had been asked to provide a 'before' and 'after' valuation on a much grander house that she had worked on. He described the 'after' as "... simply fantastic." And, as work starts on our scheme, I have every confidence we will be saying the same. Debbie has all the qualities you would expect from an experienced architect - knowledgeable, approachable, a good communicator. But she has more than that. She has imagination. She listened to all our ideas, half-formed and otherwise, and transformed them into something visually and aesthetically pleasing. As my partner so shrewdly remarked, "She has challenged our boundaries." Thanks Debbie! Bob & Lynn

LSO Architects designed a loft conversion and a complicated ground floor extension for us. From the beginning we felt we could trust Debbie and she proved to be reliable, knowlegeable and understood exactly what we hoped to achieve. Our project was completed to a very high spec and we are thrilled with our fantastic extension.

We had an amazing experience working with Debbie - our finished home is something we are hugely proud of, and wouldn't have been achieved without her input. The range of advice, challenge to our ideas, and support through the project was fantastic. We have recommended to many friends and who have had similar experiences - recommended without hesitation.

We used LSO architects approximately 3 years ago after we bought a 3 Bed Semi and wanted to significantly develop it. Debbie Hoare at LSO took my domestic ideas and developed them in a way a could never have imagined. I found her to be very professional and excellent at offering practical and workable solutions. We loved our home and are using LSO again on our next project. Highly recommended.
