Detailed Planning Ltd
Architects in Colney Heath, Hertfordshire
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 June 2015
“I hired Detailed-Planning to produce plans for an extension involving creating a kitchen diner and a larger bedroom. From the beginning they were very professional and had very good ideas to compliment my own ideas. They took care of all the legalities and recommended builders etc. I was taken to see a previous project which is very unusual but extremely helpful. They have been exemplary in answering any questions and even met with my neighbours addressing their concerns and allaying any fears they had. The company have visited on a number of occasions to check on progress and took photographs on a regular basis. I have recommended them to others as I found their attitude to be very professional but also very human!”

“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).”
Design Spec Ltd

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 April 2016
“Extremely pleased with the service we received from James at New World Designers Ltd. He couldn't have been more helpful, visiting us on numerous occasions to discuss what we wanted, offering ideas and suggestions and saying what was or wasn't possible. He also kept in regular contact throughout the whole process to keep us informed of what was happening. We will definitely be using them again and can't recommend them highly enough.”

“Yihyi has helped our family on a couple of occasions, and both have gone so well that we intend to get her involved in a third project. We can't recommend her highly enough. She helped my brother turn a two bed one bath flat into a three bed two bath flat, creating a great family home from a small space, with flair and care - but without a huge budget. A couple of years later, she has helped me update my loft space and create a living and sleeping space that we absolutely love, and also reworked my bathroom, shower room and small toilet - all of which I love. If you get the chance to hire her - do it!”

Sheldon Peever Studio Ltd
Architects in Colney Heath, Hertfordshire
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars7 May 2015
“We employed Christine Peever to provide us with architectural services to renovate a 4 storey property dating back to 1912. The property was in a very poor state and we had no experience of such a project. Christine was an excellent listener to our needs and I felt she understood our strengths and weaknesses as her clients and adapted herself to us both as individuals to create our vision. Her note taking was faultless and she carried out all changes with exactness and efficiency, of which there were many! We also have to thank her for her endless patience during the decision making processes. She pushed us hard to make as many decisions as possible before going out to tender and this has inevitably assisted us with keeping our budget under control. We look forward to welcoming her back to the property shortly so that she can see what she helped us to create.”

A2studio
Architects in Colney Heath, Hertfordshire
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 March 2016
“Claudia and Kerem from A2 Studio were the interior and architectural designers for a complete overhaul of a Victorian terraced house in Harringay. Scope of works included a side return extension, opening up of the ground floor layout, new kitchen, new bathroom, addition of a new understairs toilet and a loft dormer. A2 Studio were involved in the project from start to finish, even assisting us in finding the right property to suit our requirements for a home that would feel spacious and light, yet also provide cosy and intimate areas. As a result, our renovated house offers a great space for entertaining guests downstairs, a place for kids to sleep and play on the first floor, and a large and light-filled bedroom 'away from it all' at the top of the house. New aluminium framed glazing at the back of the house was a particular focus of the rebuild, and A2 Studio provided us with great suggestions for making sure we bring in as much light as possible into every part of the house. More specifically, a large skylight in the side return extension was important in achieving this, and the ground floor feels light and open during all seasons, even on dark and gloomy winter afternoons. From the outset Claudia showed great patience and fingerspitzengefuehl to ensure all our wishes were met. She was very enthusiastic throughout the whole process and helped us with design ideas ranging from issues such as kitchen work flow to a suitable lamp for our hallway. Kerem proved to be the detail and design-oriented architect we needed to fulfill our vision. He was happy to come to our work site to supervise progress and discussed all steps of the works carried out with our builders at great length, making sure we would get the end result we wished for. We found both Claudia and Kerem to be very professional, while also being extremely approachable and pleasant to work with. They always found the time to discuss ideas with us – even if that meant adding to or overhauling our initial design scope. We would highly recommend Claudia and Kerem as interior and architectural designers, whether it is for a complete rebuild of your home or a ground floor kitchen extension.”
Mapridge Design Studios Ltd
Architects in Colney Heath, Hertfordshire
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 November 2019
“James provided architectural services to secure planning permission to extend our house at ground and first floor level, to the side and rear. Being located within a conservation area, visible from the street and on a tight plot, the design needed to be carefully considered, balancing our aspirations and the requirements of the Council. This James secured. Following the grant of permission, James assisted with the commissioning of the contractor, providing detailed working drawings, scope of work and attended on site during the construction phase. We are extremely pleased with the result. The extension is sympathetic to the architecture of the original house but provides a contemporary and spacious addition, which is highly functional as well as being aesthetically pleasing. James provided excellent advice at all stages in a calming manner, which was most welcome at the more challenging stages of the consenting and implementation process.”

“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.”

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 Colney Heath architect will also often help to obtain planning permission and building regulations approval.
