TESTIMONIALS
Martin Isaacs. Bridport Museum Trustee
'I'm VERY grateful for your help so far: it's always refreshing to work with someone who knows their stuff and the context.'
Vince Lean, Chard Museum. Truste
'Thank you so much for your presentation yesterday, illustrating proposals for Chard Museum. Everyone I talked to was really impressed'.
Pear Tree Cottage Conservation Officer
This is rare example of how to execute such as design approach successfully, in that what has been proposed could be considered interesting and controlled design. Overall, the form and scale of the extension would add an interesting and complementary addition. It is appreciated that the design approach may face some resistance, but importantly what is proposed can be regarded as "good design".
Richard and Donnalee Webb
'For professionalism, creativity, function and design, we wouldn't hesitate to recommend Corbel. Our architect, George, was fantastic and we felt listened to and communicated with throughout the whole process. We always looked forward to his visits! He nudged us creatively and came up with a house design which respected the old but brought in additional contemporary structures in a way which we would never have thought of ourselves.
Sue & Richard Leworthy
We have found all the team at Corbel to be very knowledgeable and capable. George produced a most detailed set of drawings showing us how our renovation would work. We were able to have all the input of design and finishes we wanted so our restored Georgian Grade 11 listed House was exactly as we had visualised!
