Get a second opinion

2020 Architects is now offering a Design Review service so you can access the insight, knowledge and creativity of an award winning architect… for just £149      

For any project to succeed, it needs a well crafted plan. When self-building, the design of your home is the most important thing to get right.

A fresh pair of expert eyes will give you that second opinion you need, even if you just have a feeling that something isn’t right with your current design.

Or you might have bought a site with plans already approved, but you realise it doesn’t quite suit your needs. Or you might have drawn your own layout and would like the design refined for planning.

You might even be thinking of buying a house and would like advice on extending or renovating before making an offer.

In all of these cases, a second opinion will give you peace of mind – and some inspiration too.

Confidential design service

2020 Architects confidential, online Design Review service assesses your current plans/layout and suggests improvements with a list of recommendations to help you create the home that best suits you. . 

For a new build, the Design Review can help enhance your design, maximise natural light, make your home flow better and help reduce build costs.

If you’re thinking of buying a house and would like to find out more about the possibilities of extending or re-arranging the layout, simply upload the estate agent’s brochure with the relevant floor plans and 2020 Architects will advise of potential structural or planning implications.

2020 Architects can also offer this advice on your existing home, if you have access to a copy of your current floor plans.

Testimonials

“We worked so hard to make our self-build dream a reality and although our original design included everything we asked for, the flow of our home just didn’t feel right. A new perspective on our design from the 2020 Design Review made solid recommendations on a number of important changes to the floor plan, and we’re now building the house of our dreams.” 

Mr T Trainor, Co Leitrim  

“The initial design for our extension was stunning, but our build quotations exceeded our budget. We booked in for a Design Review, and a fresh set of expert eyes helped us to see how we could amend our design without compromising on the look. And…we managed to even add another room. The best investment we’ve made.”
