Creative Design for Everyday Life
I’m Josh Hovey, an architect based near Bristol specialising in residential projects.
I design thoughtful, practical homes across the South West—from sustainable new builds to contemporary extensions and listed building projects.
I offer a reliable, personal service—combining creativity with clear, realistic advice at every stage.
Thoughtfully Designed Sustainable Homes
Whether you're planning a self-build Passivhaus or an energy-efficient eco-home, I’ll help translate your sustainability goals into a design that looks beautiful, performs reliably, and suits both your lifestyle and landscape.
Transformative Conversions and Renovations
Reimagining an existing space? Whether it's a barn, cottage, or townhouse, I design transformations that bring light, flow, and purpose—helping your home feel more functional and characterful without losing its soul.
Sensitively Crafted Listed Building Alterations
Working with a historic or listed building? I specialise in adding light and improving usability while protecting the heritage that makes your home unique—with a respectful, design-led approach.
Simple and Stylish Contemporary Extensions
A well-designed extension can redefine how a home feels and connects to its surroundings. I create clean, contemporary additions that enhance light, strengthen indoor-outdoor flow, and feel naturally integrated with both old and new spaces.
