I am have an ambitious project starting next year and chose Co Create to take care of it. Having some knowledge of how planning works, but not for doiing a project of my own, I was nervous. It changed when I met Alistair the architect. The resulting plans and CGI look straight from the 'glossies' . If you want to live in a place from Beverly Hills, see your house transform, don't 'try' Co Create - USE Co Create!
We had an annex that required a Certificate of Lawful use to enable us to use it legally as accommodation. Co-Create attended an gave us a free estimate regarding the cost, the benefits and the possible pitfalls. There was absolutely no hard-sell. Following this they surveyed the building and with their partners applied for the necessary legal documentation. They remained in communication throughout, providing advice and support and we were delighted to achieve our goal within a matter of months. This was not the cheapest option and we had toyed with making an application ourselves but in the end we considered it money well-spent with a professional business that helped us achieve our goal. Our thanks to Alistair and the team.
Working with Co Create Architects was an exceptional experience from start to finish. Their expertise, creativity, and attention to detail exceeded our expectations at every stage of our project.
The initial design concepts for our new build were both innovative and practical, perfectly balancing our vision with functional requirements. Ali and Max demonstrated a remarkable ability to listen to our needs while offering creative solutions we hadn't considered. The final design seamlessly integrated modern aesthetics whilst blending into our surroundings.
Throughout the project, communication was clear, timely, and thorough. They explained complex architectural concepts in accessible terms and kept us informed of progress at every milestone. Their responsiveness to questions and concerns was outstanding. From meeting the planning officer to alleviate any concerns they had to help pass the planning application.
Needless to say I can’t recommend Co-Create Architects highly enough. Everyone we dealt with was professional, friendly and always helpful. If we ever embark on another project in the future, they’ll be the first people we call.

Co Create is an amazing company who helped us all the way through our extension and refurbishment project, from designing, getting planning permission, giving professional advice, providing solutions during construction process. Our house has now been transformed from an old Pub to a contemporary home. Thanks to Co Create, we definitely recommend them.
Great service. Very professional and friendly service Guided us through the process Got the planning and now onto the build. Great buisness

Excellent company to work with. Alistair Powe and his team excelled on all aspects of the project delivering beyond our expectations on every level.
I have worker with Co Create a number if times as a photographer and they also helped get planning approval for an extension. They are always professional, punctual and even suggested new design ideas to help get the most out of the extension!
I'm happy to recommend both Alistair & Jamie at Co Create; both highly personable, full of enthusiasm for their work, and evidently expects in their respective fields.

Could not speak highly enough of the team at CoCreate, personally dealt with Alistair and he oversaw our project thoroughly from start to finish in a very timely and professional manner.
From our first meeting with Alistair we could see both his and our ideas starting to combine, and the whole project just came together with ease.
Having me along on the annual charity golf day was a nice touch too, Thanks again CoCreate!
