Metre Squared Architecture

We are very happy with the project of our kitchen extension designed by Gilda. She listened to our ideas and created a beautiful, functional space.The process was smooth, and she kept us updated every step of the way. We highly recommend Gilda for anyone looking to improve their space! Gilda, thank you for your work!

Gilda was great in helping bring our vision to light. She understood how we wanted our space to work with us and put us in contact with many trusted builders.

Gilda designed the perfect space, listening to our requests and ensuring we maximised all the space to the full potential. Gilda was a pleasure to work with through the process, providing superb support to source contractors, suppliers and help address any issues along the way. We would highly recommend Gilda and would definitely use her again. Sunil & Ritti

Working with Gilda was great. She was so helpful with great ideas and experience. Her knowledge of our local planning process and regs made getting planning so easy (within the constraints of British bureaucracy). Knowing the experience of others that is a massive deal. She did a fantastic job of designing our extension and was a pleasure to work with.

Gilda was instrumental in guiding us through and creating our loft extension plans through to gain planning approval. Her insight and eye for detail was exemplary as was her taste in the finished product. Highly recommended Thanks Gilda!

We have really enjoyed working with Gilda on our project. From the very beginning she was very clear and helpful regarding information about the processes and stages involved from design concept through to planning application process. She has great knowledge and great design ideas. Gilda communicated with us regularly and we would strongly recommend working with her on your forthcoming project.

We approached Metre Squared to help with a complete refurbishment for our large flat in Godalming, including some alterations and internal design. Throughout the entire process the architect was extremely professional and very responsive to our hopes for the project, bringing fresh ideas that helped us to envision our space in new ways. The result was a beautiful, light filled space that far exceeded our expectations. Metre Squared did an amazing job of navigating planning, holding our hand along the way, and guiding us through the process. The attention to every last detail was truly refreshing, and additional suggestions for furniture and finishes gave us a stunning result. We absolutely love living here!

Reasonable and clear fee structure from concept through to obtaining planning permission and preparation of Building Regulations package of drawings and details. Gilda was excellent throughout the process and her vision from the original concept plans for the rear extension of our house gave us fantastic advice and ideas. We are close to finishing the project May/June 2024 and the build phase has gone smoothly helped by an excellent set of working plans

We engaged Metre Squared on the redesign and refurbishment of a flat overlooking the Thames. The project involved drawing up scenario plans for reconfiguration of the space, and guidance on furnishing style and specific products that would compliment the overall design. The service we received was exemplary. It was personal, efficient, timely and extended our thinking way beyond what we would have anticipated was possible. We were given clear and exciting plan options for the space. Moreover, we were guided on colour palate, and furnishings that delivered, for us, a tremendous result, giving us huge valued-added over what we could have done without such guidance. The personal and focussed approach of the engagement with Metre Squared was such that throughout the entire project, from conception to completion, a refreshing dialogue was maintained that resulted in the whole project being a totally enjoyable and rewarding experience for us - perhaps the definition of a 5 star service.

Gilda worked with us to design a piggyback loft extension to provide additional living space for our family. Her experience and knowledge of the local area and building regulations were invaluable in obtaining planning permission and producing a design that met our brief.

We gave Gilda a difficult task of creating a design for us, encompassing a number of requirements within a conservation area. It was important to work with an architect with experience in such an area and, particularly, with insight on how our borough council operated. We made the right choice: our project passed planning at the first attempt which, coming to know the restrictions, was beyond our expectations. We're really pleased with the design which meets all of the requirements that we set out at the beginning.

We used the services of Metre Squared and Architecture and have been absolutely delighted with the service, ideas, Gilda’s knowledge and experience. Having had a different architect before Gilda, we could tell the difference straight away in terms of local knowledge and experience with the council which helped us get approval on our first try (unlike the other architect) Our project is about to begin on Monday and we are so excited to see the long anticipated results. Thank you very much Metre Squared Architecture - your work ethic is one of a kind!
