The title of 'Architect' is protected by law; other designers often get around this by using the word ‘architectural' and are not generally qualified or regulated to the same degree, particularly with regard to design. Hampshire Architect's fees arebasedon the time it will take to do the work rather than a percentage.

Carolyn's consultation completely exceeded our expectations. We have been in a rut of extend or move for a long time. In a matter of hours she was able to suggest several options for now and in the future. Although it was her knowledge and vision that drove the consultation we felt fully involved and able to offer input through out. It was a very thorough and personal service, with a prompt delivery of plans. We are now reenergized and excited to continue on the path that Carolyn has started us on.
Carolyn consulted on a kitchen renovation that could have possibly involved an extension to the house. She was very thorough and offered a sensible solution within our current building that saved us having to extend outwards but offered a sensible new layout. Very happy to recommend Carolyn and impressed with her knowledge and work ethic.
Having found a house in Netley we have been delighted to find an architect working locally. It was great to meet up with Carolyn and we felt that she really understood what we were trying to achieve with our house improvements and was able to put sketches together there and then.
Another fab open plan kitchen-living- dining space taking shape, this time in Netley. Two storeys with two kids' bedrooms, a home office and a versatile drying room / future shower room above. The customers are delighted that City Construction have been expeditious, under budget and considerate.
