Francesco Pierazzi Architects

Francesco has redesigned my 2-bedroom Victorian flat with garden in London. I knew he is a brilliant architect, so I trusted him completely and I have no regrets.He has excellent design ideas, but also attention to practicality, which is important for those who end up living in the property.His patience and willingness to explain / talk me through the process and potential solutions has alleviated the stress when surprises" happen (they always do with Victoria houses). His knowledge and attention to detail is second to none.Finally

Francesco is a highly experienced professional who is able to guide and advise his clients throughout the entire duration of the project. The ideas that he suggested are excellent. He has been able to redefine the areas of my apartment in an harmonious and highly original way particularly when combining old features and modern ideas. The design is innovative, with attention to detail and good value for money. I am extremely pleased with the refurbishment of my apartment.

Since starting working with Francesco in 2015, I have now completed several of his projects. So far I can confidently say that he is the best architect I have worked with. I very much like his designs and the way he is able to transform the spaces he works with. The way in which Francesco is able to manage the project, as well as the relationship with the clients, contribute to a smooth project that I have been able to complete very successfully.I have no hesitation in recommending his services.

Francesco designed and project managed a loft conversion and ground floor refurbishment for us in our house in Brixton.Francesco excelled in all areas, from helping us with the concept of our renovations to guiding us through implementation. He was very patient (we took a long time from initial contact to getting going!) and was there to offer advice on any and all aspects of the practical and the aesthetic. As a working couple with two young kids and minimal time to think about anything properly we relied on him a lot and he delivered to an extremely high level.We are absolutely delighted with the outcome, and would attach pictures if we were able to keep any of the rooms tidy for more than five minutes!

Francesco was an inspiration. He really helped envisage and bring to life my ideas for my new home in the Derbyshire Dales – and, of course, take them to a whole new level. The project involved remodelling of the whole ground floor of the cottage, to make best use of the space and to allow the beautiful surrounding countryside in – with the main focus being a single story extension to the rear. This extension was careful to both celebrate and embrace the natural local materials and architectural style, while balancing it with modernity and an openness which both brought views of the Dales inside, as well as much needed addition of natural light into the property. Francesco also indulged me in my passion for gardening, and designed a potting shed as part of the extension, quirky and vernacular in style to wonderfully contrast with the modernity of the main design.I would highly recommend Francesco to anyone looking for an architect. He is extremely talented, has an impeccable eye and imagination and is a pleasure to work with.

Honestly, if you need an architect, Francesco is the one. His approach is candid and intuitive and he has great vision. I couldn’t have been more impressed when we used his services recently for our kitchen extension and re-design project. We started with a large but awkward space and we really didn’t know how to achieve the family kitchen / dining layout we wanted within the space we had. We initially spoke to a couple of kitchen designers but no-one had the vision to see what Francesco saw, he made suggestions that we hadn’t even considered and once we spoke to him we knew immediately that we were on the right path. We are so happy with the finished project – with Francesco’s help we now have the kitchen and dining / living space we always wanted. His ideas for colour, finish and design have been perfect every time. He has the great skill of listening to what you want and making it happen, all the time keeping everything within the project balanced. He listened to our suggestions every time and came up with clear and detailed solutions that made sense and kept our kitchen functional but also aesthetically beautiful. I would highly recommend.

Francesco is an exceptional architect who I would strongly recommend to others.I engaged Francesco to design and manage major renovations to my Grade II Listed home. Some key points are:- Excellent customer focus: Francesco took time to understand my requirements and personal style. Francesco has a rare ability to take someone's vague ideas then transform and enhance them into a clear vision.- Quality of designs: Franscesco's designs were innovative and original. Every room in the house has a talking point" which garners compliments from visitors.- Helpful

Francesco is the most professional person that I have worked with - warm, decisive and very knowledgeable when it comes to new builds, remodels and unique redesign.He takes extra care to understand all elements of the project, budget constraints and works to deliver above and beyond quality work. His clean, modern style is second to none, utilitarian and beautiful. He interjects useful suggestions and his attention to detail is top notch. I have recommended Francesco to friends and will hire him again - anywhere in the world. Do not hesitate to get in touch for your next architectural project!

We first used Francesco Pierazzi Architects in 2014, when he undertook the design and management of a Utility/ shower room extension. Four years down the line I am just as happy with the outcome as I was then. I therefore asked Francesco to design my kitchen and again to manage the project using the same builders. The project included two new doors and a new extractor duct to the outside. I am delighted with the result and will certainly use him again in any future projects.Francesco has a wonderful ‘eye’ and a clear vision of what can be achieved. Although he has strong opinions he listens and suggests sensible alternatives, putting forward design ideas that one could never think of oneself. He understands materials and fitments and works very well with the builders to allow their input as well. And I also agree with other reviewers, a strong sense of light. Input worth every penny!

We had to renovate our kitchen and bathroom, and a friend highly recommended Francesco Pierazzi, and she was right!Francesco is extremely available and patient; during our numerous meetings he listened to what we wanted, developed a clear vision of the project and worked with us to find the best solution to our requests. During the project he was present and supportive.He has a profound understanding of materials and a strong sense of space and light. To achieve what we wanted, he came up with ideas which were creative, sensitive, practical and pleasant to the eye, yet never banal. Plus we finished within budget, which always helps! Everyone who has seen our new kitchen and bathroom is very complimentary – they can’t help but notice the quality of his work and attention to detail.During our meetings we had the opportunity to get to know Francesco beyond the architect: he is a warm, kind person and, between taking technical decisions, we enjoyed talking about exhibitions, books and food - who doesn’t like porcini mushrooms?We just can’t recommend Francesco highly enough!
