Featured Reviews for Architects & Building Designers in Stroud.

Lacey Architecture
Architects & Building Designers in Stroud.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 June 2017
“I found Verity through a contact to help complete the planning stage of an extension that had become bogged down. She brought a highly structured approach to the process and good insights, imagination and flexibility to the development of the design. She was able to give a good steer through the various planning process hoops with an ultimately successful outcome - that despite the best efforts of the planners. I would very happily recommend her to others undertaking similar work.”

“Maya worked closely with us to produce layouts and building regulation submission for the proposed conversion of an attached garage to extend the existing kitchen, create a utility and a 3rd bedroom/study with ensuite at our property in Kingswinford. Maya was extremely professional and prompt with her responses. She sourced a structural engineer to carry the structural design required for the proposed modifications. We can thoroughly recommend Maya Architects.”

Home Architecture - Newbury, Berkshire
Architects & Building Designers in Stroud.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 November 2020
“We decided to award Home Architecture the design contract for a large rear extension we had planned for our 1930s house. The designed drawing by Mike had some design options that at the time we had not considered. With this open advice and forward thinking vision we approved modification for the final drawing sign off. Its now some eight years since we had the extension done and still very much appreciated the input we had from the architects. The rear extension in brief consisted of a approx 6m x 4m single story extension, with tiled roof , velux windows and Bi-fold doors across the rear to open up onto hard wood decking. I would recommend Home Architecture if you are considering building works small or large.”
The General Architecture Company Ltd
Architects & Building Designers in Stroud.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 July 2021
“We were really delighted with the designs from the General Architecture company for remodeling our Edwardian house. Kevin and his colleague really listened to our needs and came up with a design that was in keeping with the age of the property that maintained original features, whilst incorporating our needs for fish tanks, bike storage, and light! The design also allowed completion in stages to minimise disruption for family life. Kevin was able to answer queries promptly and help with all aspects of the planning process. Highly recommended."”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 July 2016
“Kennet Design were so professional from beginning to end of our extension project and we really felt we had a personal touch and that they really cared about our plans and vision. The plans that were drawn up were brilliant and gave our builders the precise information they needed to carry out the work to regulation standard - even in a way that we understood, so we could keep an eye on the build and progress. Thank you to the team for making our first experience of house renovation such a great one!”

An architect or building designer in Stroud, Gloucestershire, UK can transform your needs and desires into a visual concept and habitable structure. They will help you determine what is possible in terms of your land and the budget you have, and then work with you to plan a home design that best caters to your lifestyle.

Architects and building designers have an extensive knowledge of architectural designs and trends, as well as construction methods and building materials, and are well versed in seeing the ‘bigger picture’. Depending on the architecture firm you hire, their scope of work can span project management and sustainable design for your renovation, to the selection of furniture and finishes. So whether you’re building from scratch, adding an extension or renovating your Stroud, Gloucestershire, UK home, engage an architect or building designer to make your dream home a reality.

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 Stroud, Gloucestershire, 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.

Questions to ask prospective architects and building designers in Stroud, Gloucestershire, UK:


  • What is your fee structure?
  • What does the cost include?
  • Do you have professional liability insurance?
  • What types of renderings (3D, video, illustrative) will you produce?
  • What is your experience with similar projects?
  • When do you expect to start and be finished with the project?

  • 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 general contractors and renovation contractors?
