Nick Watkins

Lifestory Group

We’ve worked with David James Architects & Partners on several projects and have found them exceptionally professional & knowledgeable in both cost effective measures & architectural design. As a consequence I would not hesitate to recommend them.

Paul Jeffries

Birchmere Limited

David and Laurie listened to our brief and interpreted our vision perfectly and yet were not afraid to guide us into a adapted design which retained the original contemporary vision and which still reflected the brief. They remain conscious of our financial limits and we look forward to progressing the project to its final conclusion.

David Lilley

I have been working David, Laurie and the team on a number of different projects for many years now. I’ve always found their service to be insightful and visionary as well adding great value to the individual projects regardless of how different they may be.

Kevin Gunputh

Luxury Care Group

The finished house has exceeded my expectations and I cannot speak highly enough of this architectural practice where David is supported by a truly professional team.

Tom Finlay

I’ve had the privilege of working with the David James Architects team and a number of their clients. DJA’s clients always discuss their experiences as extremely positive, with everything from planning and conception, through to detailing, taken care of to the highest standards, on time and in budget.
