What our clients think from a deep retrofit and refurbishment project in Bristol?
We very much enjoyed working with Barefoot Architects on our recent extension project.
We initially approached Barefoot in 2023 when we were in the process of buying our house, to check whether a rear kitchen extension was feasible. We were hoping to build an open plan kitchen/dining area, plus separate utility room, and include space for a new seating area and piano.
We worked with Sam, Adam and Martina who developed the project from initial ideas and sketches through to a comprehensive set of designs and specifications which we handed to our main contractor.
Barefoot were lovely to work with throughout, providing a sense of fun and a spark of creativity alongside the expertise needed to provide a design which works brilliantly.
Now that the project is completed, the space works brilliantly, being both light, airy and calming as well as vastly more practical than before.
As part of the project we have also transitioned completely away from fossil fuels, with triple glazing, EWI and a heat pump.
Overall we are delighted with the finished result and would be very happy to recommend Barefoot Architects.
