David Wilcox
GI Martin Architects designed and project managed our new build family home (4000 sq ft) in 2018-2019. Working with Gerry, he listened to what we wanted and came up with a final design that meets our family needs. We have ended up with a beautiful open plan house which works for our family in a practical way. The firm were very experienced in dealing with the planning process and building control were able to guide all our decisions from start to finish. They were competitively priced and very reliable, working to a relatively tight deadline. I would be very happy to recommend their services. More...

I have worked with GI Martin Architects for over fifteen years. His team have helped advise on architectural designs and achieving planning permission for various projects across the UK and Northern Ireland.
I fully recommend their work, their attitude and knowledge of design regulations and minimum standards. The design fees were always competitive, they were able to incorporate minor changes and always ran reliable schedules and met deadlines for built programs.
The office team, Billy and Gareth are hard working, honest and reliable when the pressure is on. I will continue to use them and recommend them, having worked together for over 15 years. I have never been let down and they have worked many a weekend to make sure we have the right information at the right time.
