5 Star Google Review - * * * * * 

We selected Light House Studio as the architect to advise on our ideas for an extension after having had a number of underwhelming discussions with other architects. Rachael immediately grasped our hazy ideas for a kitchen extension and was able to get an outline design down on paper to facilitate a very productive iterative process. We have now arrived at a contemporary design that we are very happy with, but were unable to envisage at the outset. The proposed development has just been granted planning permission and we are being very ably guided through the process ahead by Rachael, who has provided an excellent service throughout. I would not hesitate to recommend Light House Studio to anyone not wanting a "bog-standard" addition to their existing property.

5 Star Houzz Review - * * * * * 

Rachael has been immensely helpful since I engaged with her last summer. I really didn’t know what I wanted other than extending the back of the house to make a larger kitchen diner, but maintain a separate area for a lounge/study, since WFH is the new norm. She created 4 design concepts and I’m hoping to get planning permission granted for my favourite design on Wednesday of next week. She has great vision and very helpful. If you want something with a bit of a wow factor than I would highly recommend Rachael. I can’t wait to get started on the build, hopefully later this summer. No hesitations in recommending her.

Excellent, efficient and informative service throughout the entire process. Rachaels wealth of experience guided us through from initial ideas to planning consent. Always available on phone or email to answer any questions, offer guidance and amend plans until final design was complete. Highly recommended.

We are planning to demolish a small detached garage and single storey side extension and replace with a two storey side extension with reconfiguration of the rest of the property. The plot is extremely small and enclosed on multiple sides.  Rachael guided us through the Design and Planning process taking into account consideration of light and sight for our neighbors. The final agreed plans look great and we are extremely pleased that we have obtained planning permission.  We would not hesitate to recommend Rachael to anyone requiring a diligent and professional architect.

We are planning to renovate our 1930s semi to create a light, bright kitchen/diner/living area and decided to use Rachael to help us with the planning of this project.  Rachael has been a true professional from our very first meeting and ongoing with our project. Her ideas and input have been really helpful and all work up to the current stage has been done to a high standard. Rachael is very helpful with explaining all the stages and processes to us as we have never had building work done before. We look forward to working with her throughout the rest of the project and to see the end results.

Hamilton House

We approached Light House Studio as we were looking to have an extension done. What a difference having an architect made! Rachael was friendly and professional and she listened to exactly what we wanted, reflecting in clear drawings and costings. Our project was brought to life! We would definately recommend Light House Studio for all building and extension needs!

5 Star Google Review - * * * * * 

We are just beginning the journey with Light House Studio and to date are very impressed. Rachel was onboard immediately with the idea of replacing a very dated conservatory with ground floor extension fully opening on two sides into the garden with a terrace/balcony on first floor to enjoy last of the evening sun. Our neighbours were not happy with the plan and actively campaigned to get planning permission refused. Rachel worked to address all the concerns raised and liaise with pre-planning to cover all bases. Although pushed to committee the project was approved and we are looking forward to working with Light House Studio to get the project completed.
