Featured Reviews for Architects in Swansea, UK

Rowlands Architecture
Architects in Swansea, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 July 2020
“The brief was to remodel our 1920s semi into a large modern family home. Tom understood our requirements really well and we couldn't be more pleased with the space he designed - a wrap-around extension; 2-storey to the side and 1-storey on the back. In particular, he was able to accommodate our changing ideas comfortably and gave excellent advice on design features, without the end result looking too 'design-y'. We would recommend him without hesitation.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 December 2017
“Steven was excellent in every regard. Stevens designs and drawings for our extension build were extremely detailed and made best use of the space available. Steven guided us through the whole successful planning application process and was always on hand to dicuss the project with our team of tradesman. Absolute professional and so friendly as well. Highly recommend.”

“We were having a hard time getting our proposed extension to get a successful Pre Application, but with Robs help and going the extra mile with completing in Welsh we have been successful. Now onto full planning, very diligent and pro active, hard qualities to find these days, great designs too”

“Gave us clear advice and provided us with thought-out options that were innovative. Would recommend and will be using again on future projects”
Hyde + Hyde Architects
Architects in Swansea, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars7 March 2017
“We initially approached Hyde and Hyde for our project as we loved their unique, contemporary designs. Once we met them we knew they were the team we wanted to work with as they totally understood what we wanted and approached the house design around how we lived our lives. We were concerned about planning, particularly as the house is located on the Gower peninsula, but they expertly navigated the process and got us our dream. They added a dimension of design detail that I would never have imagined and ensured that their vision was delivered for us by our teams onsite. Hyde and Hyde challenged us throughout the design process, with lots of debate, but we are delighted with the outcome and absolutely love our new home that wouldn't have been created without their amazing work.”
Canopy Visual Ltd.
Architects in Swansea, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars2 February 2018
“Canopy have created our visuals for The Tap End since we launched in the summer of 2017. They have never once let us down on timescales and have even done some graphic design for us as well in creating our current advert campaign to launch our new showroom. We will continue to use them as we are very happy and we think the price is extremely competitive. We would rather use a local company than outsource abroad because we are also a local company! If you are an interior designer, architect, landscaper etc who needs visuals to convey your vision then look no further!”

Steve Robinson Design
Architects in Swansea, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 March 2016
“I was worried at first as my husband found the company online and we were going blind! We needed plans drawn up and steel calculations. I must say we are thrilled with the plans, service, timings and cost. We would highly recommend! Thank you,”
LW Design Studio Ltd
Architects in Swansea, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 September 2022
“Liam approaches architectural design with a balance of calmness and passion that immediately filled me with confidence. I always feel apprehensive when it comes to instructing trades for work on my home but having a local architect that knows the area has given me the confidence to move forward. Thanks.”
Jonathan Brake Design
Architects in Swansea, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 February 2021
“Jonathan is a fantastic architect. He was very friendly and professional. He really listened to what I wanted and added his own ideas. The service provided was extremely efficient. Jonathan supported my application to the Council with his designs - which took all the stress out of it for me. Jonathan continued to support once the designs were signed off by checking quotes received for the work to make sure they incorporated the whole design. I cannot recommend Jonathan highly enough and will continue to recommend him.”

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 Swansea 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 Swansea 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 Swansea during initial consultations.
