Private Houses

Nick Bakers Architects have been trusted to design a number of high end residential project in and around London. These projects always receive our highest level of attention. Bespoke, personnel, and often intimate spaces lie at the heart of these private house projects.

Clients come to us with their hopes, aspirations and budgets. We see our task as designers to understand these values and co-ordinate them into a design brief. Often the most important document on an individual one-off house project, the design brief captures the task and acts as a guiding set of principles to assist the whole team.

The iterative process of design can mean that a final solution comes only after initial inspiration and rigorous testing of principle. Doing this for clients who have possibly not designed before can be challenging. With a strong commitment to understanding and listening, valuable methodologies can be developed to capture the essence of the brief to provide stunning results.

The budget on any private house project is a key enabler. By fully understanding what is available and the timing of cashflows the process of design, statutory approvals and construction can be successfully managed to ensure projects are delivered on time and on budget.
