Architects in Southwater, West Sussex

“Brian Hoolahan acted as our principal architect as we embarked on our project to replace our harbour fronted home in Chichester. The location of the property was particularly sensitive as it is situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Our brief was for Brian’s practice to design a family home using traditional materials whilst at the same time satisfying some of the highest environmental standards with respect to energy efficiency and material sourcing - including ground source heating and significant reliance of a sustainably sourced oak structure as an alternative to steel. Further, as a resident of Bosham we very much required that our new home was to be sympathetic towards the local environment, being close to Bosham village and its grade 1 listed Anglican church. Brian led all aspects of the design and planning approval process - which included satisfying the requirements of the District and Parish counsils as well as other authorities, including Chichester Harbour Conservancy. Following planning approval, Brian, through his construction company, Harbour Contractors, project managed the build covering all aspects of compliance and certification addressing architectural matters as they arose. We were delighted in choosing Brian’s organisation for our project and were able to benefit from his many years of professional experience as well as his deep architectural knowledge, having developed many projects throughout West Sussex.”

“A company with a conscience! Kal, Vladi and the team at KMI were committed to getting it right for us from the start to the end. Excellent workmanship and attention to detail and they were professional and reliable during the 6-week project. I am looking forward to calling on the team again for building and decorating works in the future.”

“Each design that Three|Eleven work on is unique and never formulaic, Rob Beer works creatively to exceed both a clients needs and their vision. We have worked with Rob on a challenging new build in Rottingdean where planning permission was tough to gain and came with incredibly tight restrictions. With constraints on size, this project demanded a creative design to maximise both space and light, whilst also meeting the clients dream of a traditional Arts & Crafts style house. We are currently working with Rob to build a stunning extension on a Victorian house which is also progressing well. It's a pleasure to work with Rob, we receive the detailed plans we need and communication is open and supportive - we really couldn't recommend Three|Eleven more highly.”

“An excellent finish to my bathroom. A few structural problems occurred due to bad workmanship in the past, but all the problems were sorted out at little extra cost to me. All work was completed on time and all the workers were very punctual, tidy and trustworthy. Would recommend the company to anyone who wants a good job done for a reasonable price.”

“Adam from designed and project managed my kitchen redesign which involved extensive rebuilding and steel support work as well as full kitchen design. He employed the builders. He was always a pleasure to deal with, efficient and responsive. His team of builders were tidy and respectful. Overall, it was a job very well done and I would have no hesitation in using Adam Fahey Design again.”

“I hired Concept8 for a complete renovation project of a 4,000sqf family home over 12 months in 2013-14. The Concept8 team was responsible for architectural design, organizing tenders, sourcing contractors & materials, monitoring the entire process onsite & dealing with all contractors from start to hand-over (and beyond). I found in Concept8 a team of dedicated professionals, able to listen to our needs, highly knowledgeable in their domain, well-connected with a large network of professionals in the construction business, without which my own personal project would not have been a success.”

“Creative spaces were very professional and stuck rigidly to the schedule. The build team were fantastic and extremely conciencious as well as being considerate of neighbours and working around us. Everything was explained in detail and broken down for our reference before work commenced. Communication about timings and finishing weren't always great and I had to chase for a few things. However, they made sure everything was delivered and finished to our satisfaction. We were incredibly happy with the end result and it has made a huge improvement to our little flat and in turn life style. I certainly would recommend them.”
