Karenna Wilford Architects

We engaged KWA to help us design a challenging extension to our Grade II listed home in East Sussex. Throughout the design phase and the complex but ultimately successful planning application, it was a real pleasure working with Karenna and the team. She listened to our requests and understood what we were looking for, had design great ideas, and helped engage a historic building consultant to work through the inevitable challenges with making changes to a listed building. We would not hesitate to recommend KWA to others, or engage them on future projects of our own.

Karenna and her team worked with us to design a new property in Camber, Kent and guide us through the planning process. It was an absolute pleasure working with Karenna and Karen - who were both very professional, knowledgeable, collaborative and patient as we worked through multiple iterations and what became a lengthy planning approval process. The result is a fantastic design which has satisfied the planning department and is both eco friendly and sympathetic to the plot and the location.

We contacted Karenna to help with the design process for an extension on our 1930s period property. We found Karenna and her team (we also liaised with Natasha & Karen) to be professional, knowledgeable and efficient from the beginning. They were able to provide design ideas we hadn't thought of, taking into account our needs as a family of 4. We have been very impressed so far. Thank you Karenna.

Karenna Wilford Architects were recommended to me, I asked Karenna to come up with designs for a new build house in an AONB, to replace some existing derelict agricultural buildings. Karenna and her team produced a number of different options to suit different budgets. Planning permission was obtained and the land subsequently sold to a developer. Karenna provided an extremely efficient service and guided me through the whole process. I have subsequently used Karenna's service for some further work on a large 1930's property that required modernisation. I have been very impressed with her design insights as well as her attention to detail. Karenna and her team have excelled and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Karenna is marvelous. Her designs are creative and clever and she was particularly receptive to the needs of my elderly parents. It was a joy to work with Karenna.
