What an amazing Architect! Not only does he excel in his field but he takes professionalism to another level, leaving no stone unturned, scrutinising the minute detail in order to achieve perfection. He’s easy to work with and has been a huge help with our complicated scheme, both with planning and the building contract. His years of experience have made him simply irreplaceable. We would highly recommend Garry. Our only regret is that we didn’t find him sooner.

I had a great site where I knew that getting planning permission would be tricky. Garry's professional advise and human touch really helped us create a wonderful family home. His creative input insured we did not end up with something that was just ordinary.

Comment from Thomas Studio:

Self-build is a hugely rewarding process and I know James that you have achieved a great project and a very energy efficient home. Quality takes time to create and it was a joy to work with you on the project and to celebrate the planning permission, which was hard won.

Comment from Thomas Studio:

I always enjoy it when clients appreciate the process required to bring about good projects. It's not only a financial investment it's an emotional and time investment too. The icing on the cake is when projects are awarded and it was a real joy when your project won an award.

It was great to work on the White House project at Stoke Lacy. The planning application was hard fought, and now the project has started on site it will be great to see it completed set within the wonderful landscape.

Wonderful to have the opportunity photograph these houses by creative architecture practice Thomas Studio. Garry really understands space, form, material use and quality of building.

It's great to see people find your images captivating. I always enjoy the way you photograph buildings and capture the essence of the build. Keep up the good work.

Architect Garry Thomas provided an excellent service and did a great job designing our new house and getting it through the planning system. At the time he was working with another practice, and when he set up his own practice we had no hesitation to move with him as we were very happy with the services he provided. We would not have secured our planning permission without his determination, expertise and ability to present an overwhelming case to the planning department and planning committee. The end result exceeded our expectations. Garry always goes that extra mile to obtain the results required and expected of his clients. He is very easy to work with- very professional, creative and assisting of our needs. It has been a real pleasure working with him and we look forward to continuing to use Garry's services over the years to come.
