Winchester based, design-led contemporary architects

Contemporary design, for modern living

As our lifestyles evolve, so too should the spaces we live in. Traditional homes, often built with rigid layouts, may no longer suit the way we live, work, and socialise today. The need for flexible, adaptable spaces is greater than ever, and a home that can evolve with your changing needs is essential.

At Giles Architects, we understand that the way we use our homes is shifting. Whether you’re renovating your current space or designing a new home, we work with you to create a high-quality, contemporary design that reflects your lifestyle. Our approach ensures that your home is not only beautiful but also functional, flexible, and responsive to both your needs and the context of your site.

Let’s explore how we can transform your property to better fit the way you live today, and in the future. Whether for work, family, or leisure, we’re here to help you design a home that adapts to your needs.

Your home, made better

While additional space can often be part of the solution, the key is understanding the full context. The objective isn’t just to add floor area, but to enhance the functionality, value, and overall experience of your home. Before recommending an extension or conversion, we take the time to fully understand your needs and how they relate to your current layout. Often, it’s the contrast between the two that sparks innovative ideas, allowing us to rethink existing spaces or introduce open-plan living. When more space is needed, we ensure that our design approach encourages connection and harmony.

At Giles Architects, we use a blend of traditional methods and advanced technology to bring your vision to life. From hand-drawn sketches and physical models to 3D renderings, animations, and Building Information Modelling (BIM), we offer a range of tools to visualize possibilities. Dialogue is also essential, as we work closely with you to shape ideas and find the best design solutions.

We believe that the most successful new build, renovation or extension projects arise from collaboration between the architect, homeowner, and builder. Our approach is to listen attentively, work closely with clients, and deliver beautifully designed, contemporary homes. Our goal is to create adaptable, fluid spaces that balance independence with connection, offering areas that cater to both social interaction and personal retreat.
