Artist of Architecture:

Hi! I am Vladis, an Artist of Architecture. I am an architectural home designer providing professional architectural design, drafting services, planning and construction support for home extensions, loft conversions, renovations and bespoke new builds. With solutions to suit your needs. Serving Richmond, Twickenham, Kingston upon Thames and Greater London with expert residential design and planning guidance. Services are offered in-person or remotely.

I am trading as Artist of Architecture, an architectural firm based in Richmond upon Thames, London providing architectural design services, drafting services and is an alternative to your local architect or architectural designer. Whether you are deciding between hiring an architect or an architectural designer or you have already experienced working with them and simply would like to try something new,
the reasons people prefer to hire me are:

  • I care for your project. If I take on your project, I aim to make it as good as it can be.

  • I am listening to your requests and ideas and implement them into the project as much as feasible.

  • My turnaround is often faster

  • My drawings are of a good quality. For example, a recent client appreciated my quick turnaround and personalized approach, resulting in a smooth planning and building regulations approval process.

  • No matter the size of the project, I am interested in both small and large projects equally. They all are interesting to work on.

  • Whether you seek a Standard simple and affordable project or
    a Unique bespoke, stylish project, I am happy to help clients with any vision and goal for their project. I welcome clients with diverse visions and goals, providing unbiased support throughout their project.

  • My services can be more affordable comparing to other architectural designers or architects.

  • As an architectural designer I can offer bigger artistic freedom for your ideas to express into your project. If you had a chance to look through architectural websites and their portfolios, they often share similar stylistic expression. Things can be done in many ways, and I can help you to express yourself. I am able to design the whole project all by myself (of course only if you wish so) but, by hiring me, you can bring in your ideas and I will help you to translate it into professional documents for your builder to build and I can assist you with obtaining permissions.

  • Some of the clients I have come across found working with other professionals frustrating due to communication. Therefore, clients prefer to choose my architectural services.

Why an Artist of Architecture? Because, in my designs every project irrespective of the budget size integrates elements of art. I have always plenty of ideas for your project, but you are welcome to bring in yours. I always listen to your (client’s) input and aim to incorporate it into the project.

I work in Richmond, London, Greater London area and Surrey, but I also offer services elsewhere. Whether you prefer in-person appointments or 100% remote online consultations, I provide flexible options to suit your needs. Over the years, I've found online consultations to be faster and simpler than traditional methods.

As an architectural designer I have been turning projects from ideas to reality for more than 10 years. I have worked on residential, commercial and industrial developments and I have lead projects from their conception through permits to their completion in England.

Whether it is a refurbishment, extension, new build or anything else architecture related I am able to assist you.
