What our clients say about us

The Farmhouse

"I am an architect myself with a lifetime’s experience and George and James is the firm I picked to work with to support me in every aspect of a significant personal project. I picked them because they understand what it takes to make a really good building. They understand their business, they are up to date and they do what they say they will do. They are, in my experience, completely reliable. They have an exact knowledge of the project and always seem to anticipate issues before they become a problem as well as instantly recall exactly how something should be done. They are attentive to budget and programme, thorough in providing and coordinating information, and inventive and sensible about how detail is both developed and carefully integrated into an architectural composition. As a client, I have found them to be calm and consistent, positive and patient and a pleasure to work with."

"George and James Architects have created a light, open and sociable space - a new focal point for the house and our family, and exactly what we were looking for. Their management of the whole process, from initial designs, through to planning approval and then the build itself was seamless and efficient."

Cromwell Grove

"George and James Architects carried out our basement renovation with an assured and modern touch. The judgment of proportion and layout was spot on as well as their guidance on how to maximize and brighten a rather dark and low ceilinged space. We are delighted with the result which has transformed our living space and given our home a new lease of life."

Thirsk Road

We are so happy with the kitchen extension that Simon & Darren planned for us, that 3 years later we are looking at using their services to help plan our loft. We have a South London terraced house and smart design to best use the space was important. Their ideas and expertise helped get us a kitchen space we love. Their attention to detail and finish is way higher than anything we would have achieved on our own and worth every penny.

Woodfield Hill

We hired George and James Architects to refurbish the ground floor of our detached house in Coulsdon. They have completely transformed our house, by creating an open plan space for family life and entertaining alike. We were impressed by their attention to detail and their ability to see the bigger picture. We put our complete trust in them to deliver our aspirations for the project, which we are pleased to say we're not just met but exceeded. Our Project Architect Simon was both friendly and professional in equal measure, the perfect balance in our opinion. We would have no hesitations whatsoever in recommending them to our friends and family. Thank you, George and James Architects

The Grove

"We were recommended to link up with Darren to take our project to the next stage - finalisation of tender, build and completion stages. Great recommendation by our QS team at PT Projects. We are very pleased we changed architects at this stage - the process has been far less stressful. Darren is thorough, detailed, and both Darren and Simon are very good with understanding what we wanted (a mix of restoration of a locally listed building and sympathetic modernisation), dealing with planners, a large and complicated project, made even more complicated with COVID. They have a great eye for detail, good at managing scope changes and hence budget implications, practical, creative, fun and easy to work with. A great pleasure and we are very much looking forward to the completed project! Builders were very concerned with the change in architects, but I do think in hindsight, this was the better outcome and they would say the same too! Thank you both."

Lavender Road One

Recommended to us by a neighbour, we were extremely satisfied with the final outcome of our living room extension, built to Simon's design. We are very impressed with his intuition and professionalism, and of course, his design for our extension. Our room is looking modern and much brighter now, thanks to his ideas, yet fits seamlessly with the original build and the surroundings. Thank you Simon!

Lavender Road Two

Overall we really rated George & James Architects for high levels of professionalism and flexibility. We went for design and project management which made changes or adjustments, which there always are with building works, seamless and easy for us to understand and to end up with a suitable solution. Simon’s relationship with the builder and guys on site brought everyone together into what felt like a team working to deliver to a high standard. The end result has really seen a transformation of the property and to the way we live in our home.

Slaithwaite Road

George & James Architects helped us through all the stages of transforming our dated, dark downstairs into a bright and modern space that we truly love to live in. From coming up with some clever ideas of how to reconfigure the space, to handling the tender process, to advising on finishes and white goods, and even to handling adroitly some tricky situations with builders, they were professional, responsive, and above all friendly and a pleasure to work with throughout.
