Start your home redesign the right way...
Living in a house that falls short of being your Dream Home?
You don't have to settle for anything less than your dream home,
and you don't have to move
Does this sound familiar?
You live in an older home with good bones...
but everything else seems to be falling apart.
You’ve talked about and maybe even attempted to remodel in the past...
but your big plans never gained momentum, or got lost in life's daily grind.
You feel stuck in a house that doesn’t suit your lifestyle or your family’s needs...
and you feel overwhelmed by the thought of a mammoth home improvement project.
You have an idea of what you want for the space...
but you have no idea where to start, and you’re afraid of making big expensive mistakes.

dreaming about your ideal home to living in it
—without any D.I.Y. nightmares.
It all starts with the Home Design Foundation Package...
Here's how we start:
All projects start with the Home Design Foundation Package.
The Foundation is the first step in your project. This is the most crucial stage when all the most important foundational decisions are made. Get this right and you can be confident that the end result will be right for you.
You’ll receive at least one sketch design layout that you're truly excited about, personalized expert advice for your home, and a huge head start on your project.

The 3 stages of the Foundation Package.
1. You Design Your Home Vision, with my support using the preparation workbooks and guidance provided.
2. We come together for a Design Day, when we’ll explore your needs, desires and lifestyle to define and envision your revamped home. I'll create sketch designs that meet your vision and work with your property.
3. You double check that the design is right for you, using the Check-it-Out Checklist and guidance videos that I provide, before progressing to the next design package.
Here's how the Home Design Foundation Package works:
- Click below to book your Home Design Foundation Package (the Design Day will take place on a Tuesday)
- You’ll complete the Design Your Home Vision guided preparation to help you get the most from your sketch designs.
- On the Design Day we’ll come together at 10am for a 20 minute vision clarity call, then again at 12pm for a 1 hour collaborative design session. The calls will be via zoom.
- During the calls, you will need to be present to discuss your needs, desires, lifestyle and explore your options in a co-creation plan sketching session. If you are a couple then you both need to be present at both calls.
- After your Design Day I will redraw your sketch layouts, so they are easy to read, and send them to you by Friday that same week.
- You will also receive the Check-it-Out Checklist to guide you through the different ways you can use the sketch plans to double check that the design is right for you.

You might be thinking...
"Isn't an architect just for really big expensive projects in the city centre?"
"Isn't an architect just for really big expensive projects in the city centre?"
The great news is that hiring an architect can actually save you money and headache
while ensuring that you truly get the home of your dreams.
Everyone, including you, deserves to enjoy a well-designed, beautiful, and comfortable space
to live, work, and play in. That's why I'm here.

Nice to meet you! Since 2009 I have helped well over a hundred homeowners turn their homes into places they love. Comfortable, characterful, planet friendly homes that suit a modern lifestyle.
Before setting up iarchitect, I was a senior architect in one of the top 5 largest international architecture practices, designing multi-million pound education projects. I bring the lessons learned on these large scale projects with specialist teams into my work for homeowners, delivering professional high quality designs and bringing together key specialist consultants where necessary to create the best solutions we can for your project. I'm highly qualified, experienced, and specialised with a place as a registrant on the RIBA conservation register and an eco-refurbisher on The Green Register. My homeowner clients have included couples at every stage of life, growing families, bachelors and bachelorettes, pet owners and hobbyists. Unlike the typical image of an archtect I'm female and don't wear all black clothes or round glasses, but I do love a good cup of coffee and sketching out ideas on tracing paper. |

These services are perfect for you if...
You want to transform your outdated house into a beautiful modern home that suits
your unique life and sense of style. I specialise in working with homeowners of traditional property,
particularly in conservation and green belt areas,
who are interested in low energy and environmentally friendly design...
You prefer to buy locally grown organic food and ethical clothing and at the weekend
love visiting National Trust properties and modern art galleries...
You want someone who will listen to you and design solutions that meet your needs...
Who's not a fit?
If you know exactly what you want and you just want someone to
draw up your plans without adding creative input, then iarchitect services are not for you.
If you're into pastiche and making new things that look old but are made of concrete and
plastic, then these services are not for you.
If you'd rather grab a coffee in a disposable takeaway cup from a large chain rather than a
lovingly made coffee from an independent cafe served in a warm mug,
then chances are my approach will not chime with you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where will my Home Design Foundation Package take place?
Your clarity call and collaborative design session will be online via zoom.
When do you hold the Home Design Foundation Package Calls?
The calls are available on Tuesdays. You get your package of information, including your sketches and personalised fee proposal by that Friday to review over the weekend. The Design Your Home Vision preparation work is online for you to access immediately after booking and to work through when it suits you. The preparation needs to be complete by the end of the week prior to your calls.
Can I just buy the Home Design Foundation Package?
Yes. We do offer architectural design packages that follow on from the foundation package all the way through to completed build if you wish to continue working with us. There is no obligation to continue with the following project design stages after completion of the foundation package. At the end of each phase you will have a package of information that you can use to take your project to the next phase and you can decide if you would like to continue working with me or implement the plan on your own.
Why do you start with a Home Design Foundation Package?
I have been helping homeowners since 2009 to create their ideal homes and have found that this is the quickest and most effective way to understand homeowners unique needs and create designs that meet, and I hope exceed, them. I have found that without a strong design foundation the initial design process can take months and even years of going back and forward with emails and meetings, which costs homeowners a lot more in time, effort and fees. The calls in the Foundation Package take place on one day and give you a virtually instant set of sketch plans.
What is a Home Design Foundation Package?
A Home Design Foundation Package starts with guided preparation workbooks and videos which you carry out in your own time to suit you. This covers an assessment of your property, your needs and your aspirations. This includes a clarity call to further help you refine this on the day of your sketch design session.
I then produce a set of sketch ideas for us to explore in your sketch design session.
The collaborative sketch design session is a lunch hour spent with you, via zoom, assessing , and exploring design options to create a home that will suit you. All the final sketch plans are drawn in collaboration with you so you can make sure you're happy with the design. I will then do some follow up work and email you a package of information including a copy of all sketches made during the session and a set of the sketch plans for your favourite option.
How does a Home Design Foundation Package work?
Once you have booked your workshop date I will send you a confirmation email including the Design Your Home Vision workbooks to complete in preparation for your session.
