Job location: E14PAD were very successful in helping achieve planning for a residential extension by producing a high quality exterior render and drawings. The work was completed quickly and they provided advice on how to best achieve a successful application. They gave the application what was needed and were very easy to work with.10 Great Experience, Great Design

Job location: E15We were recommended PAD after speaking with a different few architects and becoming exasabated by either the lack of quality, or talking in ways we didn't understand. PAD made us feel understood, they worked with us closely throughout, explained the process and helped us understand all the bits of building and planning you take for granted. More than that, they made the experience a positive one, with a beautiful outcome to boot! Very happy, highly recommend!9.33 Smooth and professional

PAD produced a set of highly intricate designs for my new three-bedroom home on a very challenging and sensitive plot in the Clapham Common Conservation Area, right next to a terrace of listed buildings. The level of care, creativity, and technical detail was outstanding – I was really impressed with how the design managed to balance contemporary living with the historic setting. I’d thoroughly recommend their services.Verified reviewerJob location: SW49.67 Good service and easy to work with

PAD is a team of experienced architects and technicians who take genuine pride in helping homeowners realise their dream projects. We produce clear, accurate, and detailed architectural drawings for planning applications and building regulation approvals, ensuring every client has a solid foundation for their project.
WHY PAD?PAD brings design thinking of the highest calibre - expertise honed over years of working on design-led, high-end projects. Our architects remain actively engaged in complex, design-led projects at the highest level, bringing that same skill and creativity to every project, regardless of size or budget.
By stripping away the gloss and formality typical of high-end services - keeping early-stage drawings loose and iterative, and communicating directly with clients by email rather than through polished reports - we make exceptional design accessible and affordable.
PAD was founded to raise the standard of architectural services available at the more accessible end of the market. Too often, homeowners are left with generic, unimaginative layouts produced quickly and without care, by outfits that prioritise speed and profit over quality. We offer a smarter, more thoughtful alternative: application-ready drawings underpinned by genuine design expertise - bringing the quality of high-end design to projects of every size and budget.
