Brightman Clarke Architects

We chose brightman clarke after meeting with chris brightman about our replacement ground floor extension within a conservation area. they were the most interested in our ideas and wishes of all the architects we saw, but also came up with solutions we would not have thought of, including the moving of a doorway which i couldn't really see the point of but now, in the finished building, makes all the difference! we had to take into account wheelchair accessibility including a fully accessible bathroom in a tight space. chris made all the running with this and liaised with a specialist bathroom company we ended up using, and everyone is amazed that it is a disabled bathroom as it doesn't look like one at all. we engaged bc to project manage as it was a large project and we did not regret this, it made us feel secure that this oversight was there keeping the project on track. a number of unexpected findings (including a well in the yard) did not phase chris, and when some stud walls in the scheme turned out not to work within the finished space, chris met with us and the builders and the kitchen company and we took them out, so flexible and responsive. no hesitation in recommending them and in fact we have done so several times already.

We choose brightman clarke to extend our traditional semi. from the very beginning we were very comfortable with jonathan. he spent a considerable amount of time listening to our needs and wishes. we felt fully involved and were really pleased with his input and suggestions. in the end he came up with three possible proposals for us to mull over before we finally settled on a plan that we felt fully met our need. jonathan was very patient and answered any queries we had quickly. he guided us smoothly through the planning process. the fee structure is very well put together allowing for a number of options, including full tendering should you need it. we felt they gave us very good value for money. we would highly recommend jonathan and brightman clarke.
