From the start, Steve Bond of Pritchard-Bond architects was completely professional in his approach to every aspect of the project. Initial advice was accurate and timely, steering us away from critical errors which would have impacted the project later on. Steve guided us through the refurbishment process, providing technical advice where appropriate and making it clear when we needed to provide our input or make a decision. He liaised with all the other trades and professionals on our behalf and, at all times, he was robust in representing our best interests - I quickly felt that I could trust him to ensure that the right decisions were made ... which were not necessarily the easy decisions. In terms of his skills as an architect, he is adept at interpreting your needs and coming up with innovative, aesthetically beautiful, but very practical solutions. A number of other professionals that I have worked with have gone out of their way to comment on the quality of the buildings that we achieved. I have worked with other architects whose focus is far narrower and who also seem to think that it is their own personal project - not the client's. In contrast, Steve offers a very strong client focus, backed up by outstanding architectural and management skills. I would have no hesitation in engaging him again for any building project, large or small."
