If you are thinking of embarking on building work or simply want to explore the possibilities of building, we can assist. Russell Parkhill has over ten years experience working as an architect on a wide range of building types from the design of residential schemes (new build, conversions and domestic extensions) to commercial and industrial units. Working alongside clients, the goal is always to deliver designs which exceed expectation. Building projects are all unique. The budget, brief and site constraints ensure that each design solution is specific to each client.
I am an architect who enjoys working with people; I get great satisfaction from guiding clients through the processes and procedures to arrive at designs and constructions which exceed their expectations. I appreciate that undertaking building work is something a private client may only do once in a lifetime; it can be their opportunity to improve their property or indeed to build the home of their dreams from scratch. Whatever the scale, my approach is consistent; to develop a good working relationship, to maintain good communications with all involved and to produce designs which ultimately ensure that the client's investment in time, energy and not least money are worth it.
One of the most popular means of adding rooms to an existing property is via a loft conversion. Whether you wish to add a sumptuous master bedroom with ensuite, a playroom for the children, a home office or even a gym, RPAL would be delighted to advise on the potential for development of your loft.
Russell Parkhill Architects Limited is committed to providing a cost effective, design-led service which delivers on quality and aims to exceed client expectation. Regardless of the scale of your project, our initial consultation session is free. Whether you intend to remodel or extend your existing property, convert an existing structure or plan a new build development this session is designed to focus your mind and establish your requirements in some detail. Together we will examine design options (at all times considering budget and site constraints).
The garage conversion is often the most economic route to providing additional habitable space in an existing house. Modern families rarely use the garage in which to store cars and RPAL find that most clients seeking these alterations value a playroom, dining room or home office more. This form of extension is ideal for properties where the client is seeking to increase the size of their house without eating into their garden. Current planning policy accepts that the conversion of a garage does not require planning permission, this is one of the reasons why this form of extension remains so popular, call RPAL for advice.
Modern life and working patterns often rely on the flexibility generated from working part or full time at home. It is often far from ideal to attempt to shoe-horn this additional activity within the layout of an existing house therefore providing a dedicated home office is often the solution. The home office can take many forms dependant on the existing property, the budget and nature of office required. It could be housed within a loft or garage conversion, as part of an extension or as a standalone structure in a garden.
Russell Parkhill Architects Limited provide all the services expected of a chartered architect. Not all clients need, or want the full architectural service available. So whether you are exploring ideas, whether you are ready to proceed with a planning application or indeed, whether you are ready to build, we have an architectural service pack designed to suit your requirements. Russell Parkhill Architects Limited designed a two phase extension for our house in Wootton, Northampton and dealt with all the necessary Planning Application and Building Regulations submissions.
Exploring the potential of your garden to provide additional recreational space for the family or to provide secure areas in which children can play is more frequently requested by our clients. Spaces beyond the home separate the daily functions of family with areas in which you can get away from it all. If, on the other hand business requirements or a hobby require additional space adjacent to, but separate from the main home then garden buildings again provide a flexible and cost effective solution.
