Dan
Cannot recommend Daniel @ Mino Architects enough.
We had zero idea about what was required or expected in getting a simple extension, complete first timers, and so we needed someone we could trust, and from the very first conversations with Daniel, we knew we would be in safe hands.
.. and he was so competitively priced too! What we didn't know was that the services he provided and assistance he gave us would go far beyond his drawings. Daniel's wiliness to talk to us and advise us on things like planning applications and agreements required, well after his final fee had been paid, was unreal, and led us to leave a review, which is something we don't really do!
Such a nice guy and a pleasure to speak to. Not that we have much experience in dealing with the building trade, but I think most would agree that you need expertise, a friendly calming manner and to be trustworthy.
Daniel has all these and more and I have no hesitation in saying that Daniel will be a part of any future project we may embark on.
Thanks again Daniel.

Thank you Grace it was great working with you!
What’s your interior design process?
Interior design is very personal, and we work with our Clients so they are
able to create the best environment possible, as we understand its their home and they
have to feel comfortable.
We create a blank canvas to work from with clean lines and maximise as much light as possible.
Its easy to create colour change by using art work and lighting for changing moods.
We like to create flexible environments that are adaptable, and can change seamlessly with your mood
to accommodate exciting spaces.
Which interior design styles can you cater for?
We tend to work with our Clients and love to go on a journey with them it's the most
exciting part of being a designer being able to dreams and make them real.
What do you love most about your job?
We love working with environments and people. If we did not have people then there
would be no reason architecture or space.
There is nothing more exciting then to see a Client visualise their dream and be a part of
that. Its truly magical.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Being a perfectionist and wanting to be able work hard for myself
and benefit from the rewards that your own company brings.
Why should our clients choose you?
A Client should choose the right architect for them, one that listens and understands
their requirements, most importantly their budget.
One that has their best interests in place and that is qualified to undertake the work.
We have always set out to provide the best service possible with affordable reasonable fees.
Architect and Design / Planning / Technical
FEASIBILITY – We can develop a brief with you which takes into consideration the site, daylight, sustainability, budget, and statutory consents as well as your design intentions for the project. We’ll explore various design options in sketch form (using models, drawn sketches, 3D visualisations), allowing you to move forward confidently with working options and ideas.
PLANNING – When a scheme has been developed, we can progress the design into a more
detailed set of drawings suitable to submit to the local planning authority to apply for planning permission. We will compile the necessary drawings, documents and forms, submit them to the relevant authority and monitor the application.
TENDER – Once planning permission is granted, we can develop a detailed design package to be issued to builders for pricing. We will liaise with other relevant consultants to ensure you have all the necessary information.
CONSTRUCTION – After a contractor has been chosen, we can issue full construction documents and act as contract administrator for the duration of the build. This involves regular site inspections to verify the works, as well as valuing the financial value of the works as they progress.
