Architectural Drawing Professionals in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire

“It was a pleasure working with FAL Architects over our two building projects. The first was a new build triple garage with bedrooms and kitchen/lounge/diner above combined with an integrated boiler room for both this building and our main house. We knew what we wanted here and Ainsley was able to perfectly represent our concept into complete plans and project managed the securing of planning together with additional support and detailed drawings throughout the build. Our second, more substantial project was the renovation and extension of our 18th Century Farmhouse. Here is where FAL Architects were invaluable. We always felt that the team had time and cared about our project. From really listening to our requirements and working with us on several iterations of plans; which were very different to how we thought about renovating the building, through to providing advice and support throughout the project. As problems were uncovered throughout the build process Ainsley consistently came up with solutions that enhanced the final result, never compromising on the vision we shared and we are delighted with the end result.”

“We moved into an old Victorian terrace in 2022 and immediately began to search for architects for our project. We planned for a loft conversion with a rear dormer, an internal reorganization of rooms on the first floor that would require the moving of walls and dropping of floor levels, and the refurb of the rest of the property – with us living there at the same time! All of this with a view of achieving a sympathetic restoration that would retain, and in some instances return the property to the original Victorian format. We searched for architects with not only a keen eye for style, but also an appreciation of what we wanted to achieve, and necessary expertise to manage the project through to completion. We’re extremely fortunate to have found Raydan Watkins! We began working with Richard and Dana in 2023, with their expertise guiding us through the process of planning permission consent in a conservation area, rounds of tendering for building contractors, and then the management of the project itself. Throughout, Richard and Dana were responsive, patient, and considerate of our opinions. They helped to keep the project on track, despite unforeseen challenges that seem to lurk beneath the fabric of most old properties. We have ended up with the house of our dreams. Subtle architectural considerations of light and sight-lines within the house have opened up the space and created additional room without impacting on the perceived size of rooms. Features have been retained, and the choice of materials ensuring that the changes blend seamlessly into the house, giving the impression that they have always been there – we’re delighted. I would highly recommend Richard and Dana for your project!”

“Tom is a pleasure to work with, his guidance and knowledge is outstanding. I would highly recommend Tom for any architectural projects.”
