We first found Kate via Instagram and instantly fell in love with her work and knew we had to have her as our architect. A year later we managed to enlist her services and she exceeded our expectations. She was very patient, took on board our wish list and made our dreams a reality. We are in love with her design for our house and we cannot wait to see it come into fruition. As we are both deaf, a design that allowed for clear communication using sign language through glass windows and across several rooms were very important and she achieved this through her design. Kate and her team were very responsive, quick to answer any questions or queries we had and were very efficient! We consider ourselves very lucky to be able to have her as our architect and couldnt recommend her more.

I engaged with Kate at Loud Architects after falling in love with their unique style and design on Instagram. I had had a vision for how I wanted to change the partially sub-ground floor of my house for a long time but was worried Id not be able to make the vision a reality and to be able to afford that. It was dark, cold, poorly laid out and didnt make use of space and I was aiming for lots of light meaning lots of glass and cosy, meaning warm tones and underfloor heating. I finally plucked up the courage to talk to Kate and request for her to come see the property and talk me through the process and Im so glad that I did. Right from the go Kate was reassuring but honest and practical about what I could and couldnt do within a given budget, she talked me through the process highlighting where costs may rise and gave me all the information I needed to feel calm, prepared and in control. As a single woman in her 30s doing this alone, having Kate speak with such clarity about it all and knowing Id have her there for support was the main reason I felt I could proceed. The designs Kate returned far exceeded my vision for what could be done and I love the fact she threw in some designs that really pushed the boundaries of what I was imagining and at the same time would allow me to achieve the look for less. During tender Kate made sure that everything was transparent from the builders that were pitching by giving a detailed line by line breakdown in excel to what needed to happen. This was immensely useful as again it gave me a lot of control over the cost rationalisation exercises needed to make it a reality. Throughout the build she was supportive, responsive and helped me adapt plans where they needed to be. She kept me calm and was always on hand with such a depth and breadth of knowledge and experience and network of professionals to cater for everything. My only wish is that I could have had the cash to bring Kate and Loud into the interior design phase as well as her talent far far outshines mine and I still to this day consider bringing her back to put a real designer's touch on what Ive done. You just need to take one look at her own house to know what a huge difference real design talent makes. This said, I now have my dream come true. My space is bright, warm and full of colour. I have a kitchen that is everything I ever wanted and more (Kate guided the designs of this too) and a space thats as quirky as I am (Kate gave me the confidence to go for it). I cant recommend Kate and Loud highly enough, absolutely exceptional.
