GP Architecture Studio | RIBA Chartered Architect

We have just completed the process of submitting a full planning application to the Pembrokeshire CC. It related to the complete external rendering of our home in Haverfordwest. We are delighted by the fact that the application was totally successful - and full formal planning consent granted We placed the whole process in the hands of Mr Geraint Phillips of GP Architecture Studio in Whitland. The professional service and advice given by Mr Phillips was truly excellent in every respect. Mr Phillips conducted the whole process in a most efficient timely and friendly manner. We are very grateful to him for all his work, - which produced such a successful outcome. We would unreservedly recommend his professional services. Dewi and Helen Davies, Haverfordwest 6th July 2023

We have had a very impressive experience with Geraint as our architect. He was very patient and professional in every aspect of achieving our planning permission. We changed our dwelling plans several times and this was never an issue for Geraint. Geraint was able to bring our ideas to life with 3D images which really helped us to visualise our new build. Geraint was very prompt at communicating and nothing was too much trouble. We highly recommend Geraint if you're looking for a keen and very knowledgeable architect.

I had been looking for an architect for several weeks, spoken to a couple who weren't quite the right fit and then found GP Architecture Studio via a Google search. I have now been working with Geraint Phillips (architect) for several months and have been thoroughly impressed by his obvious design skill and willingness to take on all parts the planning process. I gave Geraint the task of designing the renovation of my property, a 150 year old double-fronted stone cottage in Wales as well as three extensions (sunken kitchen, entrance lobby with adjacent bathroom, third bedroom) and off-road parking area with access from the main road. I gave him a brief of 'boutique vineyard meets James Bond pad meets traditional Welsh cottage with some Jurassic Park boulders to the exterior' - not the easiest of briefs. Yet, Geraint seemed to enjoy the challenge, incorporated an arboretum into what will be the old kitchen and incorporated my request for a sunken kitchen to the rear. Geraint was also very happy to tweak the designs at my request e.g 'an additional piece of glass here or there' and produced two different designs giving me the opportunity to compare and contrast options and ultimately choose my favourite. Geraint supplied the designs to me electronically as well as ordered large paper copies to be delivered to my home and this meant that I could pore over the designs at my leisure. Geraint then took on the task of submitting the chosen design and additional paperwork to the Carmarthenshire County Council and dealt with all of the Planning Officer and Building Regulation Officer queries/requests. We received full planning permission a few weeks later. The architect fees associated with all of this work were incredibly reasonable and Geraint provided a service fee structure at the beginning of of his engagement which was easily digestible to a lay person like me. During the course of the designing and seeking planning permission process, I have had a number of questions and Geraint has responded to my emails and phone calls very quickly providing me with the information I sought. I have been so impressed with GP Architecture Studio that I have recommended Geraint to my sister and three of my neighbours and I look forward to Geraint seeing the renovation and building process through to full fruition.

Geraint has been a great help in designing our house and also helped us incredibly through the process of the planning application. He kept us updated and informed when required and assisted us with great contacts that helped us through. He unexpectedly surprised us at times with updates as he just simply got on with his job. Great Work! Thank you. G&G

Geraint has been working with us for over 2 years on our ongoing new build. Could not recommend him enough! We were so pleased with the modern yet traditional designs he did for us. He is always reassuring and on hand with quick replies to any queries or questions. Would score higher if I could, if you need a great architect look no further! Thank you Geraint for all your hard work you have done and you continue to do.
