our difference: a client led approach to design
who are we
Founded by Matt Noades in 2016, Noades Archictects brings 20 years experience of residential architecture to clients in Buckinghamsire, Hertfordshire and the area. From a studio in Chorleywood near the Hertfordshire/Buckinghamshire border, a variety of new build and extension projects have been completed across both counties.
RIBA Chartered Architectural Practice
Noades Architects is a RIBA Chartered Practice upholding the highest standards of architectural excellence and professionalism. As a team of qualified architects, including RIBA chartered professionals, we bring a commitment to innovative and sustainable design solutions tailored to meet each client’s needs. This distinction ensures that every project, whether residential or commercial, is delivered with the utmost quality, adhering to the rigorous standards set by the Royal Institute of British Architects.
Our expertise extends across various sectors, from residential developments to bespoke home extensions. By prioritising each client’s individual requirements and carefully considering the unique character of the local environment, we can provide architectural solutions that are not only aesthetically refined but also highly functional and enduring.
Choosing a RIBA Chartered practice means selecting a partner you can trust to deliver excellence at every project stage. With Noades Architects, you gain a practice deeply embedded in the Buckinghamshire community, blending local knowledge with architectural innovation to create spaces that inspire and endure.
planning applications
One of Noades’ key strengths lies in their understanding of the specific requirements and regulations within Buckinghamshire County Council’s planning departments. For example, areas like the Chilterns greenbelt present challenges for homeowners seeking to extend, but with careful planning, there are ways to maximise the potential within these constraint. This is something we are careful to consider when working on projects in Amersham, Chesham and the Chalfonts. Another area Noades is experienced with is the Aylesbury Vale greenbelt. You can view UK greenbelt areas on this interactive greenbelt map. Staying updated on the latest consultations and proposals ensures that we can provide well-informed guidance to our clients.

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.
