We are very happy with the quality and timeliness of Grant's work. He turned my rough sketch into very well specified drawings, was very quick to correct a couple of minor typos, and additionally recommended and liaised with an excellent structural engineering firm. He also went above and beyond in responding to emails during holiday time, and from the other quotes I received, seems good value for money. We would happily recommend and work with Cameron Bosque Brookes again. More...

Grant created plans for 5 executive dwellings on our piece of land and handled much of the planning aspects, particularly regarding clarifications required by the council's planning team. He has good experience of dealing with councils and knows how things have to be done in order to comply. He knew the surveys that would be required for this small scale development and shared his contacts for these. He was knowledgeable, professional and responsive. He was accommodating but would still tell us if something wouldn't work! Planning permission was granted so it was a job well done from our point of view as well as the council's. Thank you Grant!

We were recommended Cameron Bosque by the company who completed our building survey when we purchased our house in the Spring of 2024. From the outset Oliver Brookes showed real interest in our project and how he could deliver the build we hoped for, within a budget that suited our finances. He was open to discussion through the process, when the final plans were submitted to us and subsequently after we had paid our final invoice, which was very much appreciated. Like our surveyor Oliver was able to recommend a builder to us (a torturous task without referral), who has taken the same approach to delivering our project as we wished and within budget. A very reassuring experience. More...

We were very careful about choosing an architect after knowing several people with bad experiences. We're very happy with the work, Grant was great, straight to the point to understand how we would use the space now and how it might evolve in the future. They produced the concepts and drawings quickly, communication was quick and we were really happy with the end result. Overall we really felt they offered excellent value and we would highly recommend them. More...

Grant has been very helpful in planning our extension. I appointed him after talking with at least 5 architects. He is pretty responsive, easy to work with, and most importantly can be trusted to let you know when your choices are not realistic or impractical. And most importantly does not land you with ridiculous quotes, and happy to talk to you when you need his help. I would happily recommend his architectural design firm. More...

Thank you, Oliver, for your non- nonsense advice and gentle guidance as we navigated the local planning system. In the quest to gain extra space in our grade 2 listed cottage, there were some unique configuration challenges and some rather unkind prior development to overcome. Oliver understood exactly what we wanted to achieve in terms of functionality and aesthetics and helped us to work with the conservation officer's requirements to achieve a stunning design. More...

We recently engaged Cameron Bosque Brookes Architects for a two-storey rear extension project, and we couldn't be happier with the results. From the outset, Grant demonstrated a deep understanding of our needs and constraints, particularly with our garden's mature trees under protection orders. He skilfully navigated these challenges, presenting multiple design options that harmonized beautifully with the natural surroundings. The final design perfectly optimizes our available space while also being mindful of our budget. Grant's expertise was evident in every stage of the process, from the initial consultation to the final plans. His ability to balance functionality and aesthetics, was truly impressive. Communication throughout has been clear and consistent, ensuring we were always informed and comfortable with each decision. Grant not only met our expectations but exceeded them, delivering a design that will enhance our home and lifestyle for years to come. We highly recommend Grant and Cameron Bosque Brookes Architects to anyone seeking innovative, thoughtful, and professional architectural services. More...

This was my first time employing the services of an Architect, and not really knowing what to expect I was a little nervous about being given a ludicrous plan that I either didn't want or couldn't afford. My finances were the priority and naively I only had the TV programmes to go on, where everything seems to spiral out of control with bad planning. Grant was a straight talking godsend and listened to my ideas and my quirks, and offered great advice. I was worried that I would offend an architect if I didn't accept 'all' their ideas but Grant worked hard to make my ideas come alive and only really changed or offered alternatives with excellent reasoning, all the time explaining why I should or shouldn't. He made the process easy, taking care of all the planning submission and follow up, and kept me informed at every stage. The quote given at the beginning of this process didn't waver, and so I paid exactly what I had anticipated, which was so important to me. As I learned about alternatives during the build, Grant was on hand to advise what could and couldn't be changed within the criteria we had approved, and helped to submit a change which I needed approval for. My builders never had an issue with any of the drawings done, and the build went as smoothly as it could possibly have done during a pandemic. I can highly recommend Grant and Cameron Bosque Brookes Architects. They were a pleasure to deal with. More...

I highly recommend Oliver Brookes, talented and extraordinary architect. From start to finish his attention to detail on our house project was truly remarkable. Oliver has a special gift for understanding client's vision. He truly listened, took time to understand our preferences and budget. The end result was a design that not only captured our wishes but also exceeded them. Throughout the project, the communication was exceptional. Oliver was always accessible, promptly addressing any questions, ideas or concerns. What sets this architect apart is his boundless creativity, from the grand elements to the smallest feature the design was thoughtfully integrated into overall concept and we love our home every detail. Oliver's technical expertise is also remarkable, from the structural components to the choice of materials, his deep understanding of the technical aspects ensured that our house is not only visually stunning but is also built to the highest standard and functionality. I and my husband wholeheartedly recommend Oliver to anyone in search of an architect who can turn visions into reality. It was an absolute pleasure to work with him. More...

I got in touch with Grant Cameron about remodelling the house to get more light in. He is very reactive with messages and was great to communicate with to arrange the first visit. He listened to what I wanted, gave me a realistic vision of what was possible and would make sense. He explained both the vision and the details very clearly, sent a drawing that was true to what he had explained and got it through planning approval. I am at the stage of getting quotes from builders, for which Grant also gave me a recommendation. A very efficient and personable service and I absolutely recommend the company.

His assistance in achieving the end result- “planning consent” is very much appreciated. This included supplying drawings for consent, to building regulations drawings and commentary, to recommending the structural engineer, a local builder and even a company to supplying trusses for the roof.

Experienced, hard working, flexible, and pragmatic! Cameron came highly recommended by a historic building firm. He was absolutely invaluable in providing advice on obtaining listed building consent for our Grade II* listed house with a number of complicated building and access issues. He also worked closely with a historic consultant bringing them in only as and when needed which helped keep costs to a minimum. He liaised with the Local Authority applying pressure and chasing in a professional manner with results whilst communicating with us in a realistic and patient way re the various options and the risks involved. The plans he created now form the basis of all our works and will be used by all of our contractors. Finally, Cameron went above and beyond working to our schedules and sometimes short notice deadlines and was always at the end of a call to provide reassurance and help. We shall certainly be going back to him for our next listed building application! More...

Q&As

Meeting lots of new people and helping them design their homes is a privilege, as we spend most of our lives in our homes, so it must meet our needs. It is fun to show clients new ideas, surprise them with clever design solutions and to see it all built. Visiting clients after their home is finish is a real pleasure, as you can see the difference their extension or new home has made to their day to day lives.

I spent many years working on high-end residential projects in London and Surrey. I wanted to take this knowledge and expertise and see how I could design inexpensive buildings on a tight budget, but still maintain that high quality finish. You don´t have to spend a fortune to get that level of finish you want. It is about clever design solutions, which is what we do best.

Cameron Bosque Brookes Architects focuses on the inside as much as the outside when designing homes. For us architecture is about the whole user experience, the journey through the building, the use of the internal and external spaces and how the design makes you feel and behave.

​Every client is looking for a design which reflects themselves, that allows them to live how they want to live in their home. We want our designs to not only meet our client's aspirations, but to go beyond what any client originally imagined.

Services

We tailor our wide range of architectural services to each Client's needs. We can lead you through the design and construction process from start to finish. These are a list of typical services we provide;

General enquires consultation via, phone, zoom or site visit.
Site visit and survey of existing building and production of existing general arrangement plans.
Design options.
Visualisations in 3d of the exterior and interiors using advanced 3d software or animations
Interior layout, specification of interior finishes, furniture layout, kitchen and bathroom design (enquire for more information).
Planning drawings and documentation to achieve planning permission.
Building control drawings to meet current building regulations.
Tender drawings and specification production to allow a building contractor to give a price for carrying out the works.
Serving notice under the Party Wall Act to neighbouring properties.
