    Plans and advice for erecting a side extension and rear extension project.

    Posted 4 days ago

    Efficient, friendly and professional. Keith provided detailed guidance on the specifics around regulations and processes, and supplied several revisions to our requirements.

    Floor plans, building regs and EPC. Highly recommend.

    Posted 09 April

    Keith at D84 was fantastic to work with—responsive, flexible, and great value for money. He really listened to our needs and delivered excellent floor plans. We used D84, for floor plans, single dwelling to 2 x 2 bed flats and floor plans for a simple remodel of a single dwelling including building regs. He remained supportive and helpful even after the design and EPC stage. Highly recommend!

    Very happy with the work

    Posted 16 March

    We had ambitions for a double garage conversion but there are so many aspects of the process that were complicated to us. Keith did a great job navigating all of these things on our behalf, including the initial drawings, Planning Permission, Structural Surveys, Building Control, and how to use all this information to find a suitable contractor. I wouldn't have been able to do this without him and if we have any similar project in mind in the future, I'll know who to call.

    Highly recommended Architect

    Posted 18 November 2025

    We were looking for an Architect who could assist us with our home renovation project. As first timers to this kind of project, we were extremely grateful to find Keith who provided a calm, measured approach to our project. Keith listened to our ideas and brought them to life with some great plans. Various options / drawings were provided and meetings were set up to discuss any required amendments. Keith is responsive and always available to discuss any issues. Keith also recommended our structural engineer & building contractor. We can’t recommend D84 highly enough!

    Downstairs redesign to create kitchen, bathroom and utility

    Posted 13 November 2025

    Keith was excellent. He came highly recommended which is why we chose him. He listened to our wishes and dreams for our new home. He had good ideas and suggestions and came up with workable solutions to some design challenges. He answered call and emails promptly and work was done in a timely manner. We were very pleased with the final plans and the builder was able to follow the designs no problem. We are delighted with the outcome, it is everything we hoped for.

    Extension Plans

    Posted 06 October 2025

    From the very beginning Keith was very professional with all the elements required for our extension. Offering 3 options and guiding us with the pros and cons for each option. All the drawings provided were very informative and easy to follow. The guidelines for the time frame for each stage through to planning approval went smoothly

D84 Architects Ltd is an RIBA Chartered Practice formed in 2010 by architect and Southsea resident, Keith Russell.


We are based in Southsea but work extensively across Hampshire, Surrey, West Sussex, and London.


For our residential clients, we specialise in extending and remodelling existing properties to modernise living areas and create extra space. We are experts in single and multi-storey home extensions, loft conversions, and orangeries. We are also experienced in adaptations to modify homes for those in their later years.


House design: We work with clients to realise their dream home. Whether you are looking to build a new house or to transform an existing property, D84 can assist and guide you through the process.


Extensions, orangeries, and loft conversions: Whether it is a simple garden extension to produce the large family room that you've always wanted, converting the loft to provide another bedroom, or doubling the size of the house with a large-scale addition, D84 has a long and proven track record of excellence.


Our project list also includes listed buildings, properties in Conservation Areas and the South Downs National Park.
