“One of the best architects I have come across. Great attitude and always willing to go the extra mile to help his clients . I referred him to several friends afterwards and they all had the same positive experience.”
Go Plans
Architects & Building Designers in Beckenham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars31 December 2022
“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.”
Your Property Team
Architects & Building Designers in Beckenham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars11 March 2024
“Property team offered a competitive and modular pricing scheme to get through the planning stages from inception through to detailed plans. They've took over from a previous architect. Since then they've been out and took measurements and we've had Zoom/Teams calls to go through the design where we're able to add and remove items, talk through and visualise the options available. The guys are full of ideas and have a wealth of experience. On-line editing plans and spinning around the house in 3D view to see how things will look. Something our previous architect couldn't do. It's easier working with these guys remote than with someone who turned up and sat in our house. Looking forward to the revised plans being approved and getting into the detailed design.”
RHJB Architects
Architects & Building Designers in Beckenham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 May 2016
“Designed a Garden Room extension to the back of a 1960s house in a 20th Century Conservation Area to create an 'integrated living' feel to the ground floor including taking the kitchen into this space. The Architects worked collaboratively with us, taking the design through the Planning process, producing detailed tender documents to enable us to select an appropriate builder. Remaining in the background but available to support us during the construction period.”

“Steve not only produced a beautiful design for my balcony but helped me deal with the council and the builders. He was ever on hand with advice and recommendations...this covered an extended time period.... for never more than his original fee. I felt in very safe hands throughout.”
MODEL Projects Ltd
Architects & Building Designers in Beckenham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 January 2014
“Model Projects were a delight, from the initial brief with James who immediately took my requirements and turned them into a fantastic design - spot on first time with no amendments necessary. Kathryn then took over on a day to day basis as project manager and I cannot praise her highly enough. Dealing with the local authority, building control, structural engineers and the many contractors was done with calm and determination and I now have my dream space.”
Blackburn Architects
Architects & Building Designers in Beckenham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 June 2020
“I commissioned Ben to work on my ambitious extension project based on a very positive referral from a friend who had previously commissioned him. Ben immediately added value by identifying opportunities and enhancing the ambition and design of what I had in mind, whilst being responsible with the budget. Ben is a consummate professional, highly creative with a very thorough approach to the project that inspires confidence. Would highly recommend for any project size and complexity.”
Francesco Pierazzi Architects

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 June 2014
“Innovative design ideas with precise attention to detail. FP provided a thorough service from design to project management (including liaising with builder throughout project; obtaining planning permission; managing payment schedules). Good source of knowledge and advice for furnishings and fittings. Some expensive tastes...! Very nice to deal with and would reccomend without any hesitation.”
Corrie Jones Architecture
Architects & Building Designers in Beckenham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 September 2020
“Corrie has recently helped us to come up with some new ideas on how to reconfigure our house. My husband and I had been going round in circles about how we could fit two bathrooms into the house. Corrie came up with fresh ideas that we hadn’t thought of (and we had thought a lot!), so we will now be able to have the en suite we have always wanted. Corrie is practical but also uses imagination when looking at a space. We have valued his advice immensely, as we needed a creative approach on how to make use of fairly inflexible rooms and he provided just that - with options! We felt that Corrie’s experience working on both hotel and housing projects, made him perfect for us, as he knows how to make things work in small spaces but also understands how people want to live, so his suggestions are both valuable and visually appealing. I can’t recommend Corrie enough as an architect and on top of that he’s a genuinely lovely person. Even if you’re not quite sure what you want yet, it’s worth getting in touch as he might just help you work it out.”
CATO creative
Architects & Building Designers in Beckenham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 February 2015
“CATO creative have designed and project management our house refurbishment. They've literally done everything for us and have designed a fantastic family home that considers everybody including the cats. Right from the start the level of creativity and imagination has they have shown has been fantastic. I never imagined that we've have fairground lights in the loo, a metal staircase to the loft and a gloss red staircase in the hallway - We have! Throughout the process they involved us fully in the fun bits and left us out of all the hard work. They took care of all the planning and permissions required to start the works. To find a builder the team completed a tender for us helping us appoint the right contractor. During the build they managed everybody making sure it all happened at the right time. Hopefully the photographs will be shared soon.”

It is often said when you're building a house, you’re building a dream. An architect or master of building design can make your dream house a reality. Architects can help you design and redesign spaces of your home or focus on helping you build your own house from the ground up. Architectural firms have extensive knowledge of architectural design and building materials, and a strong appreciation of ergonomics – warmth, light, and flow within a property. As you search through architects and building designers in Beckenham, Greater London, UK, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Beckenham, Greater London, UK architect for my home design or renovation project?


When building or renovating your home, you don't simply hire an architect or building designer — you build a relationship with them. Be sure you chose a home architect who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. Architecture is an incredibly technical profession and one where getting things wrong can literally put lives at risk, so ensure you hire a professional with a valid license or an architectural firm to maintain high quality and standards. Your next consideration will be architectural style. Some residential architects specialise in designing traditional homes or farmhouses, others in designing modern replicas of traditional homes. While a few have a knack for imagining bolder, more futuristic architectural design in Beckenham, Greater London, UK that incorporates the latest technology.

Once you have frozen on the architect or building designer, chat through your goals, projected budget, scope of work, schedule and any other specific requirements you might have. Ask them to walk you through the process, including the number of architectural design consultations, site visits and what they will be delivering and when, e.g. feasibility study, a technical drawing, tender package and/or planning application drawings. Also, get a sense of whether they are a good listener, collaborator, and problem solver. Finally, be sure to find out what the architect needs from you,deeds, rights of way, deposit, staged payments and so on.

How much does hiring an architect in Beckenham, Greater London, UK cost?


Home construction and renovation often have a preset budget and hence it is important to understand how much architects charge. While there is no set payment structure, independent architects may charge differently from architectural firms. Architects sometimes choose to calculate their fees on the basis of a per square foot rate. In rare cases, especially with smaller projects, Beckenham, Greater London, UK architects may choose to ask their clients for a fixed fee.

  • Can you handle my special requests?
  • What is your experience with similar projects/ architectural design and style?

  • What happens when the cost exceeds the budget?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Would you say your work has a defining style? (This is important in case the architect's personal style will interfere with your vision.)
