Carolyn Gillians set up Hampshire Architect in 2010 to offer a personal service to put customers at the heart of their own projects and to design stunning homes that really work. All ARB registered architects have undertaken a minimum of seven years training and all RIBA Chartered architects are fully insured and are required to undertake continual professional development.
We provide a complete range of architectural services; these include pre-design advice, preparation of briefs and feasibility studies, though to delivery of the projects on site, for new build, refurbishment and extension schemes. Our commitment to maintaining high standards of professional service is complemented by our design ethos. This results in finished buildings that not only function successfully, but are a delight to inhabit.
We are a young, forward thinking architectural practice, which offers a complete package to the Client utilising the values of good design, sound technical knowledge and experience, with the drive and capability to transfer the Client's ideas and requirements into reality. We have the ability to respond to an increasing array of design briefs, either taking on a lead role or as part of a consultant team.
I was given my first house building project in 1983; ever since I have sought to provide a comprehensive house design / build service, to a high standard, at a competitive price. I'm proud that the business has grown successfully through client recommendations. It is important to me to see just how my clients' daily lives can be transformed through good house plan design, seeing them settle in to a new home, or enjoy their improved one. I hope you will give me the chance to help you.

Its Principal, Owen Davies, has over 25 years experience within the profession; in the commercial, industrial, retail, residential, leisure and defence sectors. The Practice has the benefit of very experienced technical support, together with full professional indemnity insurance, but without the high overhead cost structure associated with other, larger firms. Therefore its fee structure is highly competitive, whilst maintaining a very high standard of service and professionalism.
