Kent Design Studio
Kent Design Studio provides every client with a personal service to ensure that every project is delivered to its full and deserved potential regardless of it size or scale. Whilst we are based in Kent we do undertake work nationally with recent commissions in areas such as the New Forest and The Shetland Islands.

Our portfolio of work focuses on projects of all scales, including conversions, extensions, one off, bespoke dwellings and multiple unit developer schemes. Our main working sectors are in residential, agricultural and equestrian schemes however we do also carry out commercial, industrial and educational sectors.

We understand the complexities of a variety of projects and enjoy the challenge of working with constrained sites, buildings within rural settings and those influenced by heritage. We respond to each project to create a project that exceeds expectation whilst maintaining deliverability. We consciously avoid a prescriptive style and respond to each project through a rigorous analysis of your requirements, the site and the landscape context.
Services
Kent Design Studio provides a from inception approach to all projects, whether you have a design in mind you need developing or you have a blank canvas for that architectural touch, we will provide the full service tailored to your needs and specific design brief. Kent Design Studio prides itself upon the in house knowledge available with regards to the planning system and current planning policy.

Very very slow service, and poor communication. I was shocked to find out when the new practice I had to engage who are Professional Architects pointed out that the plans that KDS produced for me were so flawed (including omitting a door from a floor plan!) they had to be completely re-measured and done again from scratch. KDS are not accepting responsibility, apparently when passing my files over they mentioned they 'felt specific areas will need re measuring'!! £2300 completely wasted plus more for the new architect to start again. See my photo - the black and white are the plans KDS issued

It was a pleasure working with Kent Design Studio. From start to finish KDS were professional, they were always available to discuss the plans, they worked with the structural engineer and building control seamlessly, and the design they produced utilises the space we have brilliantly. They listened to our wants and needs and came up with a layout that exceeded both.
The creativity of the KDS has not only transformed our house but also the way we live in it.
Thanks for doing a great job.

Positive: Professionalism
Kent Design Studio was recommended to us through Philip Jarvis and they have been brilliant. Nothing but professional and patient as I asked for design alterations to our plans. I would always recommend them to anyone looking for a great architect.

My partner and I wanted to extend our house by the side of the property. Neil was very honest with what was achievable. The plans we received were very creative and exceeded expectations. I would highly recommend.

Cannot speak more highly about the service we have received; professional, courteous and very responsive. Listened to our brief and came up with exactly what we were after. We have had visits (socially distanced with all PPE etc), phone calls and video calls to ensure that our brief is fulfilled. Highly recommended

WE have always found KDS to be very professional, on point with their designs and good value for money. We have trusted them with 2 projects so far. A barn conversion and a large garage/workshop area. We are in the process of using them for a large extension too. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them to friends and colleagues alike.
Top marks and superb service.

Great staff, listened to what I wanted, looked at rough sketches I had done, suggested other ideas and come back with the perfect design. Highly recommended. Would use again.
