Custom Build Home Professionals in Bembridge, Isle of Wight

“dwell design began working for us on the extension and refurbishment of our new home after the plan drawing company we had initially been recommended totally let us down. By comparison Anthony and the team were thorough, interested, passionate and knowledgeable with much appreciated attention to detail. I felt that Anthony took the time to understand what it was that we were looking for in our home and tailored the plans to suit what we really needed, coming up with a design that worked for us. The final result is all we had hoped for and more and would not have happened without all the hard work from the dwell team. They have all been a pleasure to work with.”

“Helyer Davis Architects are extremely professional & yet still maintain a friendly approachable manner. Always willing to discuss projects whenever required. Attention to detail is 100%. Great team to work with. Making out lives easier & the project running smoothly.”

“I had an idea in my head of the extension I wanted for my house but no idea of how to organise anything to make it happen. Ralph was recommended by a friend and gently led me through the process. Ralph organised the surveyor, made lots of constructive suggestions, produced excellent drawings and very quickly secured planning permission for me. There was little for me to do except decide what design I wanted. Ralph Kent is a brilliant architect but it is all the product ideas he comes up with and his organising skills that get the job done.”

“I have worked with Carl on various successful projects. Carl's creative talent is exceptional, and without fail he turns our initial ideas into reality. It is this, and his friendly, personable manner, that means we will continue to work with him and recommend him to others.”

“Mattinson Associates provided a stunning modern design for our pool house, carefully tailored to sit well within the context of adjacent listed buildings surrounding our courtyard. Importantly they have experience and sound judgement in the planning process, and they dealt with material selection, the building tender, contract and supervision. We would be happy to recommend Mattinson Associates. They are engaged in the main house refurbishment for us and we are well pleased with their work.”

“John took our ideas for a new kitchen extension and developed the plans and proposal so that we gained planning permission without any issues. John also attended the parish council planning meeting to ensure there were no issues at this stage. With his help and guidance a specification was developed from which we were able to have a number of contractors bid, going on to select one to complete the build. Although we knew exactly what we wanted out of this project we initially had trouble engaging builders before we started working with John, due to the unusual construction methods being used. With John’s expertise, advice and attention to detail on-board the project was completed and we have been enjoying the kitchen extension for the last six months.”

“We hired Noel Wright from Noel Wrights Architects in March 2012. We loved the look of his previous work and believed he would be a great fit for us. Our project was not straightforward and we needed someone who had the vision and skill to make the best possible renovation of a very old property on a limited budget. We found Noel to be a highly creative architect with a great eye for detail, who at the same time had a very practical and pragmatic approach to design. He was able to steer us diplomatically through the whole process, which turned out to be the creation of a wonderful family home - that didn't break the bank! When I compare notes with friends over their architect and builder experiences I feel very smug indeed that we made a great choice and I would never hesitate to work with Noel again.”

“Magnus took on our detailed list of requirements and delivered them within a building which exceeded our expectations both aesthetically and practically. He dealt with patience and forbearing with contractors who were not always familiar with what he sought to achieve, whilst providing reassurance to us, his clients. No detail of the finish was too small fto escape his, or his wonderful assistant Emma's, attention, and he delivered a distinctive building which we nevertheless regard as uniquely 'ours'.

“In designing our new kitchen there were two major hurdles – a narrow L shaped room opening into an about to be built orangery; and a husband who wanted high gloss white and handless units. We invested considerable hours in kitchen design shops but felt that what we were getting would look like a laboratory or a dental practitioner. We decided that the designs were too linear and we needed some curves and a friend recommended Johnny Grey. We met with Johnny Grey and suddenly we could see some light at the end of the kitchen design tunnel. He listened to our needs and wishes and produced a set of designs which unquestionably surpassed anything else we had previously come up with or had envisaged. He recommended a series of zones for our kitchen – reception/home office ; high tech prep area; cooking /informal dining. He combined different English woods with concrete; marble with corian and stainless steel ; and they work superbly together . We love our new kitchen / informal dining area and it continues to bring us pleasure after 18 months. It unquestionably has the WOW factor and is admired by all our friends. It also has fantastic storage capacity and all the modern gadgets. We were very involved at all stages and it was a pleasure to work with Johnny and his team. We visited the company making the units and were very impressed with the standard of craftsmanship. All of his team are first class artisans”
