“Chris was so helpful with his advice and guidance and very patient with our ever changing ideas. He made quite a daunting process of applying for planning permission, stress free and we are looking forward to working with him further as our project gets consent and we can start.”

“Paul of Ambo Architects was recommended to me by my builder who praised his detailed construction drawings and problem solving skills. He said architects often provided only outline plans with very little thought on how the design should be practically achieved and that Paul was very different. The builder was right. Paul proved to be a delight to deal with, a very good listener with an open collaborative approach to the early stages of design. He has a great understanding of regulations both planning and building and produced a final design to a very high standard that sailed through all regulatory processes. The drawings provided for construction were extensively detailed with nothing left to chance, when any issues did arise Paul was on hand to help resolve the problems. The project was for a ground floor side return extension with a small first floor extension above. The realised design absolutely maximises both the available space and light in what is a small, and previously dark mid-Victorian house. The contemporary design, with modernist influence, is achieved in traditional materials and sits well with the rest of the victorian architecture. I would recommend Ambo to anyone.”

“Martins Camisuli designed and project managed a new kitchen project in my home. I wanted something individual and crafted. It involved complete remodelling of the space, removal of walls and the design and manufacture of bespoke kitchen units. They were responsive to my ideas, creative and enthusiastic. I found it very easy to communicate with them and the works were completed on time and on budget. I think the choice of materials and overall design are warm simple and enduring. I would be very happy to have the opportunity use them again.”

“I've worked with Edward Parsley Assocoaites Ltd for many years and have always found them totally professional, great at listening and responding to client briefs with creative and practical advice on a range of building challenges. The value of having multiple professional disciplines (architecture, design and structural engineering) in house can be a real advantage for more complex projects.”

“What we first loved about Mark's designs was their imagination and vision. The extension he designed for us was on a very difficult site and he immediately came up with all kinds of adventurous solutions. In the end we simply could not afford the optimum version, but he was able to adapt the original design to be closer to our budget and the final result is a huge success, greatly admired by everyone who sees it.”

“I have worked with Simon on many occasions and on varying sized projects. He has great vision and a wonderful understanding of form and function and a great eye for aesthetics. The projects that we have both worked on have flowed really well and we have both been blessed with some great clients to be working with. I very much look forward to our next exciting project!”

“We worked with John at Stanza Design to build our ensuite bathroom, which involved some structural work too. Would thoroughly recommend, its my favourite room! The balance between choice in design and being guided by someone who knows what they are doing was perfect, the builders appointment were excellent too. Would definitely use again.”

“Really enjoyed working with Ian. Very professional, really listens, great attention to detail. A good designer and contract administrator. We are delighted with both loft and rear extension.”

“Brilliant, really easy to work with, friendly, did exactly what was needed. We will definitely work with Phase zero in the near future.”

“My Estate Agency sold an unmodernised property to Rob for several £ms, who carried out an extensive refurbishment project involving significant planning gain of approximately 1,600 sq ft in a Listed Building. The result was a fantastic garden maisonette with superb reception space, five bedroom suites, a media room and steam room, staff accommodation and superb ambience throughout. When the work was complete, we sold the property for more than twice the amount it was bought for, reflecting the quality of the design and finish.”
