Exceptional Principal Designer: The CoCreate Architects joined the project at a particularly awkward and challenging stage, stepping in just as significant concerns had been raised and a stop notice had been issued. From the outset, their calm authority, deep knowledge of CDM Regulations, and proactive approach to health and safety made an immediate impact. Within a short time, they not only strengthened the situation but successfully led efforts to address the issues head-on, resulting in the reversal of the stop notice and getting the project safely back on track. Their leadership in design coordination and determination brought clarity across the whole project, ensuring everyone were aligned and focused on delivering a safe, compliant, and high-quality outcome. Through clear communication, a collaborative spirit, and an unwavering commitment, Alistair Pawe @ CoCreate turned a high-risk moment into a model of recovery and success. Their contribution was nothing short of transformative, and we would absolutely work with them again without hesitation

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.

We have found the service from Co-create architects excellent. Alistair in particular has been a star. He has guided us through the planning process with care, consideration, patience and he’s just such a nice guy to deal with. Alistair is currently helping us with another project that requires planning and we are very confident of the outcome. I would definitely recommend this company as they give you a 5* service.

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!

Excellent service and nothing seemed too much trouble. We have not had drawings done before and were expertly guided through the process. Everything was made to feel very easy and Ali was great at explaining the more complicated aspects of building design. Attention to detail is something I think they pride themselves on, and our final design certainly captures exactly what we hoped our dream home would look like. Thanks to the team and I can't wait to see the final result when it's built!

I'd like to recommend Alistair Powe and his team at Co-Create Architects for their excellent work in the design and planning of my house extension. The final design, after many changes was exactly as I had envisaged.....a modern style with large windows and skylights creating a feeling of maximum light and space, and giving a flowing connection to the garden. Also, it was very helpful to see 3D viewings from all aspects of the extension both internal and externally. Thank you Alistair for all your patience and commitment.
