Marlin Design Ltd
Architects & Building Designers in Cambridgeshire.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 October 2020
“Great service from Mark, i would highly recommend anyone considering getting professional drawings for your house extensions to use Marlin Designs, not only did they delivered on time but on budget, Mark was always on the other end of the telephone to answer any queries you may have. I found Mark to be very professional and easy to work with throughout the process, I would definitely recommend his services to anyone.”

Kasawoo
Architects & Building Designers in Cambridgeshire.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars28 August 2020
“Kasawoo helped us to transform a plain commercial building unit into a multipurpose private office and entertainment space. Through the design of the 1.5 floor layout and inclusion of clever storage partitions, we were enabled to fully utilize the modest floor space. All sections of the unit remain bright and airy, as the overall layout respects the natural lightning from the original windows.. Needless to say, service was friendly and professional!”
HSSP Architects Ltd
Architects & Building Designers in Cambridgeshire.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 May 2015
“We have worked with HSSP architects over a number of years and on a wide variety of residential projects. Extremely professional, and with great client and contractor communication, they allow other trades and professionals the space to apply their own expertise and experience within the project framework. We work with numerous Architectural practices, but would always recommend HSSP as a first point of contact to new clients with residential projects.”
Edward Parsley Associates Ltd
Architects & Building Designers in Cambridgeshire.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 May 2019
“I've worked with Edward Parsley Assocoaites Ltd for many years and have always found them totally professional, great at listening and responding to client briefs with creative and practical advice on a range of building challenges. The value of having multiple professional disciplines (architecture, design and structural engineering) in house can be a real advantage for more complex projects.”
Devlin Architects
Architects & Building Designers in Cambridgeshire.
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars30 January 2021
“Simon the owner of Devlin Architects is not an ordinary square box Architect. He designs really cool concepts taking your vision to reality. He is very professional yet friendly. He is organised and things like drawings, invoices etc are all version controlled etc. I had needs for a wheelchair user and he made my extension a dream come true. There were changes, tweaks and nothing was too much. My only reason for 4stars is Project Management. This isn't always clear from the package so clarify expectations. Equally I am a control freak so may have involved myself more than needed. Simon's ideas are awesome but remember cool designs can stretch budget - so be clear on your priority as Simon will help you achieve it.”
Raydan Watkins Architects Cambridgeshire
Architects & Building Designers in Cambridgeshire.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars9 September 2019
“We used Raydan Watkins to update a small flat attached to our house. They went carefully through our preferences and wishes, redesigned the kitchen space and living area and brought the electrics, heating and other services up to date. One key requirement was to maintain the ambience of the original, which they did - while modernising the elements that needed it. They were easy to work with, professional in approach - and remain friends, which is not always the case!”
Cambridge Architectural Design Ltd
Architects & Building Designers in Cambridgeshire.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 February 2018
“I work normal office hours and really struggled to get anyone to come out and look at my property in the evening. Lee came out the evening after I called him at 8pm with no fuss, and had some sketches mailed to me later that night! Amazing service. We went ahead with all of the drawing stages and are now so proud of our extension. Would highly recommend above all other on the grounds of the customer experience alone.”
Studio COeSA
Architects & Building Designers in Cambridgeshire.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 November 2023
“Our experience with the Coesa team was incredible. They helped bring the refurbishment of our property to completion. They took time to listen to our desires and expectations and were able to bring the best out of our preferences balanced by their own creative input and knowledge of the different aspects involved in a project (your discussions about sustainability and lighting were really insightful!). They were friendly and professional, keeping us in the loop of every decision. They delivered a design and a home that made me and my husband really happy. I cannot recommend them enough, thank you for your work!”
Fox Architectural Design Ltd
Architects & Building Designers in Cambridgeshire.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 April 2018
“Excellent professional service and beautiful plans created by Karl for a bungalow conversion into a house. Karl has great vision and has worked with me every step of the way to create exactly what I need from a home and gave great thought and attention to detail. Every question answered as I was new to all of the requirements needed for my renovation plans. Thanks to Karl's friendly and knowledgeable service, everything has run very smoothly, even the planning application stage through the Lake District Planning Board. Works are due to start soon and Karl has made sure everything needed is in place. I would highly recommend Karl Fox for any architectural needs.”

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 Cambridgeshire, UK, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Cambridgeshire, 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 Cambridgeshire, 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 Cambridgeshire, 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, Cambridgeshire, UK architects may choose to ask their clients for a fixed fee. Make sure the total figure and payment schedule is agreed as part of your contract, particularly if you are trying to accurately estimate the cost of building a house.


Questions to ask prospective Cambridgeshire, UK architects:


  • What types of renderings (3D, video, illustrative) will you produce?
  • Who will be working on my project? (This is very important if you hire an architectural firm)
  • What is your fee structure?
  • What does the cost include?
  • Can you handle my special requests?
  • What is your experience with similar projects/ architectural design and style?
  • When do you expect to start and be finished with the project?
  • What do your services include? (It's best that the services are until construction is completed.)
  • 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.)
  • Will you help with hiring a general contractor and other subcontractors?
  • What do you estimate the cost will be?
  • Are there any complications you foresee with this project?
  • What will I need to provide?
