Ynys Ltd
Architects in Swansea
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 July 2023
“It’s been so helpful having you work on the project and help us through the on site process. We’re not sure what we would have done without your help”
Noel Isherwood Architects
Architects in Swansea
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 April 2019
“We appointed Noel as our architect because of his experience of working with historic buildings in traditional neighbourhoods. Noel fully understood our brief and provided us with the guidance and designs we needed to erect a new three storey building in a conservation area. The design fitted in seamlessly with the historic context and provided us with a very comfortable London residence. We are very happy with his service and the resulting completed building. - Ian and Sally”
Hyde + Hyde Architects
Architects in Swansea
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars7 March 2017
“We initially approached Hyde and Hyde for our project as we loved their unique, contemporary designs. Once we met them we knew they were the team we wanted to work with as they totally understood what we wanted and approached the house design around how we lived our lives. We were concerned about planning, particularly as the house is located on the Gower peninsula, but they expertly navigated the process and got us our dream. They added a dimension of design detail that I would never have imagined and ensured that their vision was delivered for us by our teams onsite. Hyde and Hyde challenged us throughout the design process, with lots of debate, but we are delighted with the outcome and absolutely love our new home that wouldn't have been created without their amazing 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 Swansea 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 Swansea 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 Swansea during initial consultations.
