Who am I?

My name is Rebecca. I have been specializing in loft conversion design for nine years. My degree is a BA hons Interior Architecture. Loft conversion design is a specialist subject and as I have been focusing on this area for many years I have a better understanding of the topic, and therefore can provide my clients with a superior product compared to a general architect or designer.

I am totally independent of any building or loft conversion company, therefore my only focus and concern is for my client’s designs and how they fit their needs and wishes. I can help advise on costings if required. I will help prevent costly delays and poor planning decisions. I work with my client, for my client to maximize the best design solution, rather than a ‘take it or leave it design’ that many loft conversion companies offer.
