Alan Bennett Architects

At Alan Bennett Architects, we hold the values of quality in design and personal contact between Client and Architect in the highest regard. Established in 2002, we are a design-led practice that has limited the number of projects we undertake each year to ensure client satisfaction throughout the design and construction process. Our membership in the RIBA and RSUA, as well as our experience with projects of all sizes, from small domestic works and bespoke private dwellings to large-scale residential developments, sets us apart as a trusted and competent firm.

One of our core principles is to promote modern architecture and design, while also respecting traditional architectural forms, materials, proportions, and detailing. We strive to offer clients the opportunity to explore sustainable design, with Alan being a member of the RSUA Sustainability Committee. Our services include extensions, refurbishment, re-modelling + space planning for existing dwellings, bespoke private dwellings, residential and commercial developments, site development + feasibility studies, recording studio design, interiors + internal spatial planning, 3D visualisation, and PPS 21 - Housing in the countryside advice.
