Our Process

A clear process from first potential to built reality.

Your project starts with the right foundations. Brief, constraints and commercial objectives are understood properly so every decision that follows has a clear, considered basis.

Your ambitions get tested against reality before anything is committed. Feasibility, layout strategy and early design thinking establish what is genuinely achievable within planning, budget and programme.

Your project takes shape through detailed drawings, 3D visualisation and considered design development. Every decision is supported by a clear picture of the outcome.

Your project moves from approval into reality with the technical coordination, consultant input and contractor communication needed to get it there properly.

Testimonials

Trusted by clients.
Valued by partners.

We are delighted with results of our renovation and now have the home we envisaged when we first came to view the property. Overall the design from Elliot met all expectations and his design ideas for the Master bedroom suite was inspired - really gave the room a sense of size and space with no additional m2 added. Elliot helped us strike the difficult balance between applying pressure on our builders and maintaining a working relationship to ensure the works were completed. We would happily recommend Elliot and would encourage anyone to follow his advice on payment schedules to the letter.

Geoff Shaw

Working with TEREYN Architects over the last 2 years has been a great experience! They always put in 100%, deliver on time and are very reliable. I would recommend them to other consultants and clients who are looking to work with Elliot and his team. Elliot's knowledge and expertise is always spot on and I appreciate having him onboard. We will continue to work with TEREYN Architects going forward, thank you!

Stephen Taylor

We have only positive things to say about the TEREYN Architects. From the initial drawings of our part-single / part-double storey extension and the preparation of planning application to the tendering and building management, Elliot was exceptionally professional and easy to work with, always ready to listen and proactively suggesting solutions. Also, the interior visualizations helped us to make several decisions regarding window sizes, location of doors, etc. We strongly recommend Elliot and his team.

Valdas Noreika

We have worked with TEREYN Architects on a couple of projects now and have been very impressed with their service. We know that we can rely on their knowledge, promptness and the professional manner in which they work. We know that the end result is going to be superb and look forward to working with them again. We would highly recommend Elliot and his team.

Harry James

Elliot helped us with a two-storey extension and full house renovation in Cambridge, Arbury. He helped us with the design, drawing, planning application, building control, sap calculation, and the tendering process. He's always willing to go the extra mile to get things done. My wife and I are both delighted with the experience. Thanks for your help with this!

Patrick Leung

I cannot speak highly enough of TEREYN Architects. They have just completed the design of my house refurbishment and open plan living, and I am absolutely thrilled with the results. From the initial consultation right through to the end of construction, it was a pleasant experience. Elliot and the team turned my house into a dream home, and I couldn't be happier.

Denise Rae

Elliot was very thorough and professional with his advice and helped us secure the planning permission to extend. We are very pleased with the job.

Alice Yip

Elliot was ready to pick up our project which several other architects would not do due to its unconventional nature and complexity. He did a good job with the required drawings, both for planning and building control, working through with our requirements and delivered promptly. Very satisfied with the experience.

Soby Mathew

Elliot provided an efficient service for our new build house design and took into consideration all of our requirements. His communication throughout was excellent and he helped us to find other local services/tradespeople and supported us through the planning application process.

Caroline Collard

We commissioned Elliot to design our new build family home after talking to several architects. We found Elliot easy to work with and were immediately impressed by the speed of his practice’s work and designs produced for our home. We have no hesitation in recommending TEREYN. Thanks for the great work!

Paul de Meo

Elliot’s ability to balance the practicalities found on a site with the creative direction of an architect, was a unique asset to us. His awareness of the trends in design and modern methods of construction is impressive to see. We look forward to working with you again. Thank you TEREYN Architects!

Stay Tuned

I was very happy with the service provided by Elliot when I commissioned him to design our extension. He listened well to our requirements and came up with a design and subsequent support with planning and building control that exceeded our expectations. I have no hesitation in recommending TEREYN Architects.

Rich Coxhead

Elliot was very helpful and patient in guiding us through the process of getting an extension built. He is professional and completed our drawings in a timely-manner. Would recommend.
