“Alessandra supported us with our kitchen renovation. She spent with us half day at Magnet to design our kitchen, select the materials and the colours. She was very careful and detailed oriented to make sure the kitchen we were getting was exactly what we needed/wished for. Important to note that Alessandra is open find solution for what you need/wish for (different from other architects who wants to put their mark and leave their “stamp” in their designs). She did delivered not a kitchen, but what we called a master piece of art - her careful selection of colour and materials + solutions to corners and panels at the top/at the bottom to hide electrics paid off having her in that work. Everyone who comes to our house or lastly who sees our kitchen from Zoom/Skype or Team spots how beautiful it is (not only beautiful, but for us who uses the kitchen it is entirely functional, easy to clean and all sorted). Thank you Alessandra - you made us very happy and ensured lockdown could be easily managed with our new lovely and super functional (easy to clean) kitchen! Before Alessandra - red kitchen. After Alessandra - the modern, atemporal grey/blue kitchen (please see pictures).”

“Chris was so helpful with his advice and guidance and very patient with our ever changing ideas. He made quite a daunting process of applying for planning permission, stress free and we are looking forward to working with him further as our project gets consent and we can start.”
MODEL Projects Ltd
Drafting Professionals
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 January 2014
“Model Projects were a delight, from the initial brief with James who immediately took my requirements and turned them into a fantastic design - spot on first time with no amendments necessary. Kathryn then took over on a day to day basis as project manager and I cannot praise her highly enough. Dealing with the local authority, building control, structural engineers and the many contractors was done with calm and determination and I now have my dream space.”

“I found Verity through a contact to help complete the planning stage of an extension that had become bogged down. She brought a highly structured approach to the process and good insights, imagination and flexibility to the development of the design. She was able to give a good steer through the various planning process hoops with an ultimately successful outcome - that despite the best efforts of the planners. I would very happily recommend her to others undertaking similar work.”
Method Studio

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 September 2017
“We had a great experience working with Isaak and the team at Method Studio. They were very keen to understand our thought process and what we wanted to achieve, and were creative with the design, coming up with many great ideas. In addition, Isaak was very helpful from a technical and operational perspective – providing sound advice and guiding us through the planning, building regs and tendering process. A great result that we are very happy with!”
Go Plans

“Our experience with Go plans has been excellent. They arranged a home visit at very short notice, listened to our suggestions and compiled the initial drawings relatively quickly. They also successfully handled the whole planning permission process for us and provided a very fast and professional response to the requests and changes requested by the planning officer. We would definitely use them again for future work.”

“We have always received a brilliant, professional and timely service from this team. We are a property promoting company and the layouts provided for small or large scale developments are always, thoughtful and respectful of the planning requirements which of course differ from planning authority to planning authority. We have no doubt in our minds that users of their design services, will like us continue to come back time and time again”

“The SKM Design team were meticulous, they stayed in constant contact during the entire project, we were always informed on specifics while the project was underway, they met the project time scale. SKM architects has a reliable and highly qualified team, who were able to explain everything through every stage of the project. At no time did we feel dissatisfied or in-the-dark. The entire project from the initial discussion of the project to the very end was smooth.”

Drafting Professionals turn the designs of architects and engineers into technical drawings, clearly showing how something will be constructed with accurate dimensions. This process of drafting is more commonly known as technical drawing. Drafting services can include design development, Computer-Aided Design (CAD), and 3D modelling of buildings. Hiring a drafting professional will allow you to visualise your construction project with a 2D or 3D image of an architect's designs, ensuring you are happy with the proposed work before it commences. Builders can use these to help when estimating, meaning the quote you receive for the project will be more accurate and less likely to change.

What is a professional drafter?


A professional drafter creates detailed technical plans and specifications of buildings, turning an architect's sketches into a reality. Drafting professionals use software such as computer-aided design (CAD) to showcase what a project may look like with accurate measurements used throughout. This helps build a visual technical drawing that can be used for estimates and throughout the rest of the project.

What is the difference between an architect and a professional drafter?


Architects usually specialise in a certain area such as housing or specific room designs. A professional draughtsman, however, draws up the plans from an architect's designs, adding in all technical details and measurements required to help the initial designs come to life.

How do you find a drafting professional?


To find a professional draughtsman, view the professionals on Houzz and read their reviews, check past projects and send them a message to discuss your needs further. Speaking directly with a drafting professional will help you decide if this professional is right for your project.
