Shape Architecture

Category: Residential architecture services

Business profile: Shape Architecture is a Chartered RIBA practice established in 2006, operating across London, Brighton, and the South East. We specialise in residential architecture, delivering contemporary, light-filled spaces that enhance the way people live. Our portfolio encompasses a wide range of projects, from modest extensions to comprehensive refurbishments and new builds.

Our design philosophy centres on the principles of space, light, and transparency. We prioritise the use of glass to introduce natural light into our designs, creating seamless connections between interiors and exteriors. This approach not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of our projects but also improves the functionality and comfort of the living spaces.

We offer a flexible range of services aligned with the RIBA Plan of Work, allowing clients to engage us for specific stages or the entire project lifecycle. Our services include initial consultations, design development, planning applications, and technical detailing. We maintain transparency in our fee structure by providing fixed lump-sum fees, broken down by activity for clarity and cost certainty.

Our team is committed to sustainability, incorporating eco-friendly practices and materials into our designs. We have experience in creating low-energy buildings that not only reduce environmental impact but also offer long-term cost savings for homeowners. Each project benefits from the continued involvement of a Director, ensuring consistent quality and attention to detail throughout the process.

At Shape Architecture, we pride ourselves on our friendly and supportive approach. We understand that embarking on a building project can be daunting, so we strive to make the process as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Our goal is to create spaces that not only meet our clients’ needs but also exceed their expectations.
