"We place you at the heart of the experience"
We are an Architects practice based in Storrington, at the edge of the South Downs National Park. Specialising in both residential and commercial architectural design, we serve clients across East and West Sussex, Hampshire, and Surrey. We offer comprehensive services, from the design and planning of new residential builds to home extensions, with a strong emphasis on the preservation and enhancement of listed buildings. Whether designing a new structure or refurbishing a historic property, our focus is always on maximising light, enhancing practicality, and ensuring that the design responds harmoniously to its landscape and environment, as well as your needs.
Our expertise extends to navigating the complexities of local planning authorities, ensuring that each project complies with the relevant regulations. From feasibility studies and initial planning phases to detailed building regulation designs, construction information, and contract administration, we provide continuous support throughout the entire lifecycle of your project.
As a Chartered Member of the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA), Architékton Architects adheres to the highest professional standards. Our Chartered status guarantees expert guidance and peace of mind for our clients. We take pride in offering both imaginative and practical designs, simplifying the process while delivering outstanding results.
The title "Architect" is legally protected in the UK. All architects must be registered with the Architects Registration Board (ARB) to practice professionally. We encourage clients to verify our credentials or check the registration details of any architect they wish to work with (please just click the ARB logo below to access the register)
As part of our commitment to excellence, we ensure that our knowledge and skills remain up to date through continuous professional development. This is particularly important for maintaining compliance with the latest regulations, including the Building Safety Act 2022 and the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, which govern safety and project management in the built environment.
By upholding these standards, we provide a rigorous, responsible, and forward-thinking approach to architecture, ensuring the best outcomes for our clients and the communities we work within.
We take a holistic approach to architecture, considering not only the aesthetic and functional design of buildings, interiors, and landscapes, but also their buildability, sustainability, and long-term value. We believe successful buildings should blend seamlessly with their natural environment and respond to the needs of the people who use them. Our designs often incorporate renewable, locally sourced materials, ensuring that your project complements its surroundings.
We specialise in creating light-filled spaces that link existing areas, forming open, simplified layouts that make the most of natural light and maximise practical living or working spaces. Whether working on a traditional listed building or a contemporary new build, our goal is to provide spaces that enhance both the environment and the communities they serve.
Designing for Energy Efficiency and Performance
We are committed to designing buildings that meet current standards for energy efficiency and performance. With a wealth of experience working with both modern and traditional materials, we integrate innovative solutions wherever appropriate to reduce energy consumption. Our approach often includes the use of solar power, heat recovery systems, rainwater harvesting, and other sustainable technologies to create environmentally responsible buildings that perform efficiently and cost-effectively.
Transforming Spaces, Creating Value
Architékton Architects is committed to transforming the spaces in which people live and work. We put our clients’ needs and aspirations at the heart of everything we do, working diligently to bring their visions to life. Whether designing a single-storey extension or a multi-property development, we strive for innovative designs that are as functional as they are beautiful.
Expertise in Listed Building and Conservation
With a deep-rooted presence in West Sussex, Architékton Architects have earned a strong reputation for our work with Grade I and Grade II Listed Buildings, as well as projects within Conservation Areas. We specialise in creating thoughtful extensions, repairs, and refurbishments that celebrate the original character of these historic buildings. We work closely with councils and conservation officers to ensure that our designs respect and enhance the architectural heritage of the area.
Commercial & Retail Architecture
In addition to our residential expertise, we also have significant experience in the commercial and hospitality sectors. From office spaces and warehouses to hotels and guest accommodation, we design and deliver projects that meet the needs of modern businesses. Much of our work is situated within the South Downs National Park, where we aim to create efficient, sustainable spaces that complement the natural landscape.
We collaborates with engineers, planning consultants, and specialists, taking the lead as principal consultants to ensure the smooth and timely delivery of projects.
