Designing for you
I am an architect for people who dream about designing their ideal home.
I don’t design houses, I design homes. Both bespoke new homes and improving existing ones - designing a space that is perfectly ‘you’. I launched Bucknall Design in 2021, a practice that makes your architectural visions a reality through a truly personalised service.
Designing your dream home. It’s a just a fantasy for many, let’s bring yours to life.
I started my own practice with the goal of providing a truly personal architectural service to residential clients. I aim to share my enthusiasm for amazing spaces, sustainability, quality, and great details. My practice is just me, and that's intentional. Running my one-man practice comes with a freedom that allows me to work on projects that I love without the financial and managerial burdens of running a large practice. It works for you too, as I can dedicate more time to your project, supporting you throughout the whole process as a single point of contact, ensuring clear and efficient communication throughout.
You get a better and more personal service, and more importantly: a better home at the end!
Selected Projects
How I Work
Your needs and goals always come first. And I want you to enjoy the design process. Every project is different, but starts in the same way:
1. Listening
Engage, Discover, Document
From the moment you contact me, I work hard to understand what problems your home has, and what you want your home to become. I believe listening produces higher-quality design and leads to a better working relationship. At our first meeting, I listen. We will discuss your program, scope of work, budget, and anything else that is important to you. I pride myself on getting to know you and how you live, this helps formulate your design.
2. Learning
Evaluate, Prioritise, Align
I learn from listening to you and understanding what you need. I really reflect on what is important to you. I use this knowledge to analyse and refine your requirements, prioritising your needs to align with your budget, all whilst incorporating your feedback along the way.
Your project is unique, and so I’ll treat it that way!
3. Guiding
Create, Collaborate, Combine,
I’ll guide you through the whole process. My approach is to work with you to find solutions that not only resolve the initial problem but also make the design process enjoyable. Working with me as your Architect is a collaborative experience. I encourage everyone’s input, and actively foster a sense of ownership among all those involved. I creatively help you solve any problems you have, and hopefully some you weren’t even aware of.
Together we’ll design your dream home.
