Francis Hur Architecture

Francis was thoughtful, thorough, insightful and ingenious. He took the time to understand what I wanted and how to get the best out of the space we had available. Some of the solutions were very clever indeed. It was a pleasure to work with Francis and I would recommend him to anyone wanting architectural services for a home renovation.

I originally selected Francis as he proposed the most inspirational idea for the renovation of the three bedroom apartment. He really understood the drivers for the renovation, and the potential that the space could have taking into account the location and views. In terms of what I originally set out to achieve I would say that Francis over delivered, and exceeded my expectations. Francis was involved from the very beginning of concept, hand holding me through the council planning process, and supporting me through the building phase. He worked with the builders in an very effective pragmatic manner, which at times was very challenging. I would be very happy to recommend Francis to others.

Francis designed our side return extension and gave us some really great ideas on maximising space. He was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend him.

Francis designed our kitchen extension, giving us a design which transformed our old, dingy kitchen area into a large, bright, delightful space. He spent a lot of time discussing our likes, dislikes & desires before offering us a choice of designs which all took our views & budget into account. Not all design and architectural services do that! He remained in close contact with us and the builder throughout the 4 month build, which was delivered on time and on budget. Francis' high professional standards, knowledge of design, building regulations and the build process, plus his attention to the smallest of details, were apparent throughout the project. The result is a beautiful, modern kitchen where we love spending time. I highly recommend Francis Hur.

Francis rescued our basement conversion when it was going wrong. He came in part way through the project when it had got very complex. From our first meeting with him we had such confidence that he would be able to steer us through. He took over communication with our team of builders, Structural Engineer and Building Inspector. He was very knowledgeable but also very patient in explaining all the complicated bits! I recommend him to anyone who needs architectural services.

Francis came up with a very elegant and clever solution to reconfigure my flat, helping transform it from a bad, early 80's conversion into something workable and modern, but also with a nod to its Georgian origins. I highly recommend him.
