“Edge came up with a great idea for my kitchen extension. I would not have considered this particular design but we were delighted with the outcome. I was reassured by the professional advice but also consulted about all the options along the way. The project was well managed and I would recommend their services to others.”

“Can’t recommend Ben and Practical Planning Company enough. Nothing was every too much trouble and he went over and beyond for us. So professional, so friendly and the smoothest process ever. Ben is clearly very passionate about his work and we thoroughly enjoyed working with him.”
LSO Architects

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 December 2015
“We used LSO architects approximately 3 years ago after we bought a 3 Bed Semi and wanted to significantly develop it. Debbie Hoare at LSO took my domestic ideas and developed them in a way a could never have imagined. I found her to be very professional and excellent at offering practical and workable solutions. We loved our home and are using LSO again on our next project. Highly recommended.”

“The SKM Design team were meticulous, they stayed in constant contact during the entire project, we were always informed on specifics while the project was underway, they met the project time scale. SKM architects has a reliable and highly qualified team, who were able to explain everything through every stage of the project. At no time did we feel dissatisfied or in-the-dark. The entire project from the initial discussion of the project to the very end was smooth.”
Studio J Architects

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 July 2014
“James provided full design and planning for our 2 story extension. He provided an excellent service, his design found a solution to a layout problem we'd been unable to fathom ourselves and we are very happy with the outcome. James was always available, gave excellent advice and won over the planning authority to give us what we wanted. He was great value for money and I have recommended him to friends.”
Design Solutions Architecture Ltd
Architects & Building Designers in Matlock.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 February 2020
“The service we received was exceptional. Simon was professional, knowledgeable, and listened to exactly what we wanted to do. He ensured every aspect of our project was dealt with, from start to finish, smoothly and efficiently. He took all the stress out of every step of the process. Once we were ready to proceed he had recommendations and ideas of where and who we could contact, to help us get the building work underway. Nothing was ever too much trouble. We would highly recommend Design Solutions and would certainly use them again if we required any further work.”

“Philip was from the first appointment the architect for us, this being our first large renovation it was important to get things right. Philip was enthusiastic, full of great ideas and also listened to our requirements out of the project. He was very quick to send through computer images that we could add notes for him to edit which he completed the same day, a total of 7 drafts were done until we applied for planning which we achieved first time! Would 100% recommend. Adrian”

How do I find the best architect for my home design project?


It is best to hire a home architect or building designer who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. The architect is often the first person you will hire for your project. If necessary, they might also help you select and hire Matlock, Derbyshire, UK general contractors, which can include builders, engineers and landscape architects. Interior architects are also involved in negotiating contracts for all involved participants. It is for these reasons that it is extremely important for you to have a good relationship with the residential architect you hire. He or she can be the tie-breaking vote between you and the general contractor and can be your biggest advocate during the construction process.

As far as the process goes, the architecture firm that you choose will start with concept drawings and finish with construction drawings and documents. Some firms even design with 3D renderings and videos, but that should not be assumed. One of the most important duties of an architect is project management – that is, to serve as managers and supervise most aspects of construction, as well as facilitate communication between all other contractors.

It is very important to hire the right professional for the job. Remember that the most well-known or established architect or building designer might not provide the best architectural services for your needs. It all comes down to the individual project. Research and ask people whose work you like for recommendations. It's important to have an idea of the style of architecture you prefer, as well as the amount you would like to spend. Architects are natural problem solvers. They will assess the entire situation and help you to solve your problems too. Don't settle for a single company too early. Call and interview a few. Make sure that you feel like your personalities will mesh well and that you like their professional perspective.

  • What is your fee structure?
