Architectural Extracts
Architects in Birr, Co. Offaly
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 September 2023
“We contacted Iain Slater from Architectural Extracts because we wanted to build a big extension onto our house but had no real ideas in mind. We wanted someone who would do the thinking for us and come back with solutions. Iain did just that. We have been overwhelmed by the amount of time and dedication he has spent on our project. He has an incredible amount of knowledge. We would highly recommend Iain and he will be the first person we would contact should we need an architect in the future.”

The House Architects
Architects in Birr, Co. Offaly
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 December 2016
“We worked with Josh to design and project manage an extension to our 1930s house in Dublin 7. It included demolishing our old kitchen and lean-to sheds, and building a new kitchen/dining room with a downstairs bathroom / utility room. Beforehand we visited several clients in the local area who had positive experiences with House Architects. The pricing structure was very clear. Josh was a pleasure to work with, and unflappable, which is always very reassuring. Once we had designs we were happy with, he worked to put the project out to tender and managed the relationship and the payments to the builder. This was the most valuable aspect for us. Particularly towards the end of the project, there were probably issues where we would have let the builder cut corners, but it was great to have Josh there to hold the line and ensure the project was completed to specification. We've been living with our extension for 18 months now and we're delighted with it - it's transformed the way we use the house and the garden.”

Slattery Design
Architects in Birr, Co. Offaly
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 February 2017
“Theresa was just wonderful and took all the problems that can come from builders with a new build, sorted them out and only then , when a solution had been found, informed me . She had a site meeting almost every week for the duration and solved so many problems. The build was complex and needed great attention to details which she is so very good at. She has a great personality which managed to get the very best work out of each person as she commanded respect with her wide knowledge of each speciality. I cannot recommend her highly enough”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars28 March 2018
“I commissioned Joseph to design and project manage a new extension and full refurbishment of a period property in Laois. I could not recommend him more highly. Joseph listened to what I needed and created a wonderful design. I was very pleased with his work.”
PHIG Architects
Architects in Birr, Co. Offaly
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 September 2021
“We employed PHIG Architects to design a new extension and loft conversion to our terraced mid century house after being recommended PHIG by a friend. Dealing with Peter we found him to be very professional. He made the whole design and planning process very clear and guided us through it. His design was excellent and far exceeded our initial vision. He also managed the whole planning process too, which was something we didn’t have to worry about. I would highly recommend PHIG Architects.”

Architect or Architectural Designer FAQs
An architect is a professional who designs and creates building plans, ensuring the building is functional, safe, and aesthetically pleasing. They collaborate with clients to understand their needs and create designs that meet their requirements. Architects also consider building codes, regulations, and sustainability principles in their designs. They may oversee the construction process to ensure it aligns with the design intent.
If you are looking at a house extension or building a new home from scratch, chances are you are going to need the help of a residential architect. They have extensive knowledge of architectural design, construction methods and building materials, not to mention a strong appreciation of ergonomics – warmth, light and flow within a property. Architects will also be far more capable of seeing the bigger picture – carefully balancing aesthetic appeal with structural safety. With their local knowledge, your Birr architect will also often help to obtain planning permission and building regulations approval.

    After choosing a residential architect, you will usually start with a consultation to discuss the project. Preferably at your property or building site where the work will be done. Give as clear a picture as possible of the kind of home you are trying to create to your architects. Chat through your goals, projected budget, scope of work, schedule and feedback, together with any very specific requirements you might have. They will explain their process to you alongside any other on-site visits up to and including the build stage, depending on whether they will be involved at that stage. From there they will produce the designs and plans required for your project.
    The cost of hiring an architect in Birr can vary depending on the scope and complexity of the project, experience, reputation, and location. Architectural fees are typically structured as a percentage of the project’s total construction cost, ranging from 8% to 15%. For example, if a project has a construction cost of £500,000 and the architect’s fee is 10%, the fee would be £50,000. It’s advisable to discuss fees and payment structures with architects in Birr during initial consultations.
