Supported throughout the process and were always on the end of the phone for any questions. Knowledge of the local planning process was one of the key areas of expertise. Would recommend Matt and his team to anyone in the Three Rivers District.Bijan Ahmadi11 June 2024Noades Architect's collaborative approach has been invaluable to our projects for many years. Their guidance and expertise were pivotal in keeping everything on track. Particularly their flexibility and willingness to adapt to changes have made a significant difference. I hope we can continue this level of collaboration in future projects.Martin Horsted11 June 2024Matt designed an extension to our detached house in late 2018/early 2019. It comprised of a single story en-suite bedroom and adjacent garage. We were very pleased with the whole design process and re finished product. Matt was very approachable and took the time to ensure that everything was exactly as we had agreed. He then made regular visits throughout the build to ensure that our building contractor adhered to all aspects of the design. We would have no hesitation in recommending Matt to others who want a friendly professional local architect.
