Arkipad
Architects in Bristol
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 August 2022
“So impressed with the service from PDD - very fast turnaround and highly professional drawings. Edd did our drawings for planning permission and our building regs, and all went smoothly. I’m currently sat in the extension he designed and it’s absolutely brilliant . A* service”
The Build Bristol Group
Architects in Bristol
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 September 2018
“Liam and I would like to thank Dom, Hannah and the Build Bristol team for their dedication towards the build of our business. With the huge investment we have made into the project it has been so important for us to have faith and confidence in our builders, trusting that they are making the right decisions on our behalf. Having never done anything like this before, we were reassured by Dom attending regular meetings with us and talking us through spend and progress every step of the way. We would recommend this build team to anyone; friendly, reliable, honest and punctual, with excellent attention to detail. We were touched to see Dom and his whole family attend the launch of our driving range on a hot Sunday afternoon in July. Thank you all once again – who knows, maybe soon together we’ll build The Liam Bond Golf Academy no. 2! Emma Bond Director, The Liam Bond Golf Academy”
Thomas Studio
Architects in Bristol
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 April 2018
“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.”

Architect or Architectural Designer FAQs
An architect is a professional who designs and creates building plans, ensuring the building is functional, safe, and aesthetically pleasing. They collaborate with clients to understand their needs and create designs that meet their requirements. Architects also consider building codes, regulations, and sustainability principles in their designs. They may oversee the construction process to ensure it aligns with the design intent.
If you are looking at a house extension or building a new home from scratch, chances are you are going to need the help of a residential architect. They have extensive knowledge of architectural design, construction methods and building materials, not to mention a strong appreciation of ergonomics – warmth, light and flow within a property. Architects will also be far more capable of seeing the bigger picture – carefully balancing aesthetic appeal with structural safety. With their local knowledge, your Bristol architect will also often help to obtain planning permission and building regulations approval.

    After choosing a residential architect, you will usually start with a consultation to discuss the project. Preferably at your property or building site where the work will be done. Give as clear a picture as possible of the kind of home you are trying to create to your architects. Chat through your goals, projected budget, scope of work, schedule and feedback, together with any very specific requirements you might have. They will explain their process to you alongside any other on-site visits up to and including the build stage, depending on whether they will be involved at that stage. From there they will produce the designs and plans required for your project.
    The cost of hiring an architect in Bristol can vary depending on the scope and complexity of the project, experience, reputation, and location. Architectural fees are typically structured as a percentage of the project’s total construction cost, ranging from 8% to 15%. For example, if a project has a construction cost of £500,000 and the architect’s fee is 10%, the fee would be £50,000. It’s advisable to discuss fees and payment structures with architects in Bristol during initial consultations.
