ATELIER GUY RESIDENTIAL ARCHITECTURE
I am a qualified sole-practitioner and I formed ATELIER GUY Residential Architecture in 2011 and the core focus of my practice is within the housing sector. I specialise in single and double storey extensions, loft conversions, internal alterations, remodelling, new-build dwellings, conversions and change-of-use applications. EXPERIENCE
With 20+ years’ experience in the sector I have extensive knowledge of the planning system and able to navigate the complex process on your behalf. I run a very cost-aware practice and my core focus is to ‘design-out’ expense from the outset within my designs and I understand that every project has a unique budget that limits its possibilities. I also understand that your home is the biggest asset you will own, so my aim is always to add value to it both commercially and improving the quality of your everyday life. SERVICES OFFERED
I work within a mix of very traditional architecture right up to the more contemporary high-end point of the market. Trained in hand-drawn techniques and fully conversant in the use of computer-aided software to communicate designs and ideas I am content working on Grade II Listed Buildings right through to the modernist and minimal. I can offer you a full Royal Institute British Architects (RIBA) service from inception to completion be it design, planning applications, building regulations drawings, tender action, appointment of contractor and project managing the build to practical completion. Or I can offer you a partial service to obtain the necessary planning and building regulations approvals if you are managing your own project. I have extensive experience working with Grade II Listed Dwellings, works in Conservation Areas, National Parks and obtaining planning permission on difficult or restrained sites. The decision which route to follow is often determined by your confidence in the building process, scale of the project and of course your budget.
