PORTFOLIO

Stratton

“He had a fantastic vision which he expressed really well over various calls and in his drawings. Richard brought us through the entire process and was always there to guide on how best to proceed, recommending innovative solutions or materials that fitted into our requirements. During the build his design has been proven to be excellent in every way and the builders complimented both the design and the clear nature in which it was portrayed. Highly recommended.”

Hadyn

“Richard is an excellent architect who takes the time to listen to your specification, consider many aspects of the build including your budget constraints and come up with a plan that is as beautiful as it is practical to execute.
I used Richard for a significant extension, conversion and renovation of a large property and he was superb. Unlike other architects that I spoke with, he not only included a flair for design, but also helped me reduce cost through innovative use of materials and tweaks to the execution method. He was also highly responsive to any questions. Thoroughly recommend.”
