Basement Conversion in Belfast, Antrim

“We enlisted Marc Ballard’s help to extend our old stone home in South Belfast. It wasn’t the easiest of briefs as we also needed to extend our home to accommodate a disabled parent. Marc is a fabulous architect and the end result for us is a truly beautiful home with the most incredible feeling of space. Right from taking our brief and creating a beautiful home to managing the builders and every aspect of the build he has been brilliant. He’s very calm and truly listens to your brief and what you need and his skill as an architect is clear to see in the design work which has led to a stunning home. Working with an architect like Marc has given us a build that has the level of ‘detail’ and things we just wouldn’t have been able to do such as curved walls, bringing in different levels of light and creating different heights and making the home flow for our space but also suiting a disabled person. The build wasn’t straightforward also due to ground levels but working with Marc seriously reduced our stress levels throughout the whole process and we are truly delighted and loving living in our new ‘space’.”

“Glen worked on plans for our house extension. He took the time to understand what our vision and current and future expectations of the house and the extension. Overall I would say he delivered and exceeded our expectations. Glen worked tirelessly on the designs and kept the project moving right through to planning permission stage. We were also pleased and reassured with the range of contacts for different aspects of the projects that he was able to provide. Am very much looking forward to seeing Glen's designs come to fruition.”

“We have worked with Moore and Joyce on two domestic extensions/renovations over the past 20 years. We found William Moore to be positively challenging and creative. He supported us in a collaborative and respectful manner in which his expertise and skill melded with our ideas and taste. We have recommended Moore and Joyce to many friends all of whom have had the same positive experience. We would have no hesitation in recommending Moore and Joyce to others.”

“Tom's ability technically is only surpassed by his creative flair. He was able to bring to life my vision of a modern family home and at the same time teach me why simplicity in architectural design could not be improved on by fashion or 'stuff'. After 10 years of bringing up a family in our house, we still regularly comment on how much we love living there and still occasionally catch an angle or vista that somehow we missed before. You may have 'ideas' of what is right, my advice is to listen to Tom and you won't regret the outcome.”

“Gareth designed a complete remodel and extension for our home. He worked with our needs and our budget (adapting as this changed) and we were really happy with all his ideas! He was very patient and also took the stress away of dealing with the planners directly! Would highly recommend.”

“James is a great and emerging talent as witnessed in his recent awards at bloom and work with Dermot Gavin at Chelsea . He has an Inate sense of place in his work orienting his designs to their setting sensitivity and with respect and creativity . He assisted on the design of an extension to our home to replace an old conservatory which has transformed our use of our home -orienting it to the garden . His attention to detail , the timeliness of his response ,his honesty and problem solving skills all underpinned by his passion for good design made it a pleasure to work with him”

“We employed Green Architecture to design and draw up plans for a kitchen extension. This was done efficiently to my specifications, with creativity and imagination, just as we wanted. Anticipated costs were made known to us at initial consultation stage, and other aspects of the service were clearly identified. The service provided was cost effective and timely. I highly recommend Alan and his service.”

“Kennedy provided an excellent service from start to finish. They are very professional and went over and above what was asked of them.”
