Choosing an architect is like choosing a husband. You need someone who will go the distance, communicate, listen, help you navigate through the journey and is always on your side. You may not find a husband like that but Joaquin is the architect who can deliver.

Throughout the planning process he remained enthusiastic, positive and helpful. He’s an imaginative architect, happy to think outside of the box but will also listen and act on your more practical concerns. We had issues with neighbours and the council which Joaquin dealt with effectively and sensibly. He worked well with our builder communicating and finding solutions which made the whole process a little easier to deal with.

We had the pleasure of working with Keeps Architect. From the initial consultation to the final design, Joaquin demonstrated an incredible ability to listen to our needs and transform them into a beautifully cohesive and functional space. The creative vision is truly exceptional, blending modern aesthetics with practical functionality in ways we hadn’t even imagined.

‍

Communication throughout the project was always clear and prompt. Overall, we highly recommend Keeps Architect to anyone seeking a talented, professional architect. The experience was seamless, and the end result exceeded all of our expectations.

‍

After discussing our project with a number of architects Joaquin provided us with the most aesthetically pleasing and in keeping proposal for our project which is in a conservation area.

‍

Throughout the process he was extremely professional and talked us through what to expect. His proposal maximised the space to its full potential with ideas that none of the other architects we approached had considered.  He handled the negotiations with the local planning authority smoothly resulting in a timely approval. We would highly recommend Joaquin and have done so already to a number of friends and neighbours.

Joaquin was recommended to us and we would definitely recommend him ourselves.  We had a fair idea of what we wanted to achieve with our extension and from our first meeting, Joaquin was ready to listen to us, but also giving us some suggestions. He asked us lots of questions in order to have every little detail.  Throughout the process, Joaquin kept us in the loop and was very quick to respond to any queries or changes we had. Joaquin dealt with the planning application, which was great as we didn’t have to worry about it. We are really pleased with the end result and thank Joaquin for the quality of his work.

It was a pleasure working with Joaquin. He patiently went through several iterations of plans with us – we were replacing a large conservatory with an extension and needed to work out how to best utilise the space – and handled everything with planning. He introduced us to 4 different builders and assisted us with the decision making process by showing us side by side comparisons of their prices. And during the build he visited regularly, worked closely with the builder and then spent further time once the builders were off site to document the few snagging bits we had. Would highly recommend.

We chose Joaquin (Keeps Architect) for our home extension renovation project and are delighted with how our home has turned out. Joaquin listened to our desires for the project and came up with innovative ideas to maximise the key spaces that we wanted which included an outside covered area. Joaquin kept us updated at each step of the process and was able to quickly and efficiently respond to minor issues that arose both during the planning application stage and throughout the build. Thanks Joaquin!

We recently worked with Keeps Architect on a large extension and have already recommended them to several friends. Joaquin listened to what we were looking for, put forward some great ideas for our project, and was receptive to feedback and ideas from both us and other professionals. We found Joaquin to be very easy to work with, he has a clear communication style and is very responsive to calls and emails. Where issues arose (there were not many), he engaged with us openly to resolve these, and indeed went above and beyond to support some challenging situations we had with our builders. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Joaquin, and will be working with him on our next project.

Joaquin was a pleasure to work with throughout our project. The build was not always plain sailing but he was always available to assist and advise. The saying ‘old buildings, need new ideas’ definitely comes to mind, so if you are looking for a skilled architect with an eye for style that wows, then look no further.
