Edward Parsley Associates Ltd
Architects & Building Designers in Westcliff-on-Sea.
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.”

“We had a great experience working with Isaak and the team at Method Studio. They were very keen to understand our thought process and what we wanted to achieve, and were creative with the design, coming up with many great ideas. In addition, Isaak was very helpful from a technical and operational perspective – providing sound advice and guiding us through the planning, building regs and tendering process. A great result that we are very happy with!”

“Extremely pleased with the service we received from James at New World Designers Ltd. He couldn't have been more helpful, visiting us on numerous occasions to discuss what we wanted, offering ideas and suggestions and saying what was or wasn't possible. He also kept in regular contact throughout the whole process to keep us informed of what was happening. We will definitely be using them again and can't recommend them highly enough.”

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.”
Anthro Architecture

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 January 2018
“Anthro Architecture designed and project managed our new build family home to the highest of standards. John was easy to work with and implemented our requirements effectively while keeping the design refined and contemporary. The end result was a magnificent bright home with plenty of subtle architectural detailing that would not have been achieved without John's advice. Overall I would not hesitate to recommend this firm.”

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.”
Go Plans

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.”

“Yihyi has helped our family on a couple of occasions, and both have gone so well that we intend to get her involved in a third project. We can't recommend her highly enough. She helped my brother turn a two bed one bath flat into a three bed two bath flat, creating a great family home from a small space, with flair and care - but without a huge budget. A couple of years later, she has helped me update my loft space and create a living and sleeping space that we absolutely love, and also reworked my bathroom, shower room and small toilet - all of which I love. If you get the chance to hire her - do it!”

An architect or building designer in Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex, 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 Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex, 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 Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex, 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.
