Meet James

story
Having trained and worked as an Architect (with a big ‘A’) over the last 16 years, my eye and interest has always been drawn to the details that turn a house into a home, a space into a reflection of my client’s personality and values.
Architects (with a big ‘A’) focus on the bones of a building, it’s structure, it’s orientation…the big ideas behind a build, all worthy of attention, but often overlook the less grandiose aspects of a project, the quotidian aspects of a space which bring comfort, ease and a sense of home….what I call the flesh of a project.
The flesh is where the magic happens for me, a combination of elements that engage directly with our senses and sense of self.
A home should tell a story, your story, not one picked from a catalogue or ripped from a magazine or collated on a Pinterest board (worthy tools if used in moderation), but a home as unique to you as we are to each other.
I have been fortunate to find myself working closely with some of the finest craftsmen and manufacturers in Portugal over the last few years, and have built a strong working relationship with craftsmen whose expertise far outshines my own in their respective fields, allowing me to offer my clients real value and a wealth of expertise in pursuit of their ambitions for their home.
Approach
I aim with every project to get to the heart of my clients ambitions for their interiors and lay the groundwork for creating a home that reflects their unique character.
Authenticity and transparency are cornerstones of my working practice.
I have been a qualified architect with over 10 yrs experience and have a personalized approach to every client depending on needs.
I offer fully bespoke and unique design to suit clients needs.
I have a close relationship with some of the best furniture and interiors manufacturing companies in Portugal, with logistic and installation capabilities throughout mainland Europe and Schengen region.
I look forward to working together. Contact me for a meeting, either virtual or in person below.
Let’s write your story together…
