SIAMESE HOUSE

Siamese House is a proposed two semi-detached houses on a "Grand Design" scale and approach that's set in the city of Birmingham.

FORGE MEADOW
SHROPSHIRE

Proposed contemporary dwelling house for a very young couple to live in the wilderness in a romantic setting with watercourses running beside. The proposal is a hybrid of a cabin and a cottage to live, work and entertain over at Kidderminster, Shropshire. Forge Meadow is a bespoke development with a harmonious combination of materials consisting of render, cedar cladding and metal roofing that's intended to blend and hide in the landscape. This was granted planning in mid 2020 in the middle of the pandemic.

TRIPLE A HOUSE
GHANA, AFRICA

Contemporary super house spread over 3000sqm in Accra, Ghana for a well known businessman. The design was driven by set views to the city skyline and harvesting prevailing winds and creation of stack effect for a natural air floor system along with low carbon footprint on construction. The result was an iconic and a sculptural house in Accra. The materials were proposed to be contemporary, while also being locally sourced materials, with clay/cement mixed blocks to keep the building cool at all times. Triple A House design and its features has now become a design trend in many new houses in Accra. Completed in 2019.

Positive: Professionalism

I have instructed Design Space 2 for architectural and planning work on a few projects. Each time they have delivered a very good and successful result.

On each occasion Riyaz took the time to fully understand the outcomes required for each project. He understood where we could compromise and where we could not. Each time he demonstrated his skill and experience by navigating the numerous hurdles to achieve a great result.

If you are looking for a competent and experienced practice then you need to look no further. Speak to Riyaz or Jason.

I'd recommend Design Space 2 to anyone looking to find, design and gain planning for their dream home.
Our objective was to find our "forever home" and after months of looking and viewing we couldn't - DESIGN SPACE 2 DID !!
After our initial meeting with Riyaz and the team to discuss our ultimate aims, the wheels quickly started turning.

Jason found us a Bungalow within our desired location and Riyaz supported this with a concept proposal that ticked all the boxes and more using CGI images so we could see our design before it was renovated and built. It is beyond our imagination that we have stumbled onto a real business with a simple understanding of exactly what we wanted using a philosophy of good old fashioned honesty, integrity, professionalism and ability.

Concept very quickly turned into application and approval turned into the reality of really owning our "forever home". Not only did they find us a below market value property they also designed an outstanding home to meet our needs and requirements adding value to the property at the same time.

All the team were very helpful and responsive throughout and I'd strongly suggest you give them a call if you are looking to find and design a property for your future needs.

I required an architect for what seemed a difficult project so began my search, I searched high and low having previously being very unsatisfied with architects that I had used and from my experience I realised they were not always working in the best interest of there client.

I came across Design Space 2 by checking on a similar project which I know had been approved recently in a very unlikely location.

Upon speaking to Riyaz Nilar, I felt comforted knowing he had a wealth of experience on delivering planning approval on many projects. The plans were drawn up and submitted to the local authority, there was extensive communication between Riyaz and the planning officer, Riyaz was highly professional throughout his communication and always mindful of staying on the right of the planning officer to ensure the end result was planning approval.

The project was granted approval and Riyaz maintained his high level of service throughout the building works, he was easily available on the phone and the builders knew they could call upon his expertise throughout the build.

I have since used Riyaz on two other projects and he continues to provide the highest level of service which includes fantastic designs, listening to the client and working in there best interest, he provides an excellent all round package and not just fancy designs.

I will now be instructing him to design my personal house having used him on 3 commercial projects. I am a very satisfied client and would highly recommend Riyaz and his excellent team at Design Space 2.
