Testimonials

  • "We cannot recommend William Green architects highly enough. William was the mastermind of the fundamental design concept and Thomas our project manager and his management of our contractors has been excellent. The thing that we felt, all the way through the project, was that we always had Thomas and William on our side willingly giving us all their guidance to avoid the pitfalls that come with building a highly specified home."
    — Beech House clients (view project)
  • "The William Green team understood our brief immediately and translated it into a workable, creative and clever design, which brought the property into the 21st century whilst highlighting its period features. They managed to get planning permission approved on the first attempt – quite an achievement with such a large project in the centre of a conservation area."
    — The Knoll clients (view project)
  • "Right from the start, William, Thomas and the team, managed to translate our brief into a great design that surpassed our expectations. They are very customer-focused and dedicated to achieving customer satisfaction."
    — Millbrook House clients (view project)
  • "William Green designed a three-story extension and interior re-modelling for our Victorian town house in Oxford. Working with William and the team was an absolute pleasure. They immediately grasped how we wanted to use the space and generated an imaginative solution, which looks fabulous and is highly practical."
    — Chalfont Road, Oxford clients (view project)
  • "As a site agent with 30 years experience in construction, I have dealt with many architectural practices. I have found William Green Architects to be one of the best. In particular their communication and problem solving ability, being able to guide me as an agent running a multi-million pound project."
    — RC Spencer Building Contractors
  • "We look for professionals who share our vision and will treat our clients well. We have a close knit group of trades and professionals around us who like the same aesthetic, want to create great architecture and find like-minded clients – William Green Architects have worked with us on many occasions with brilliant results."
    — 50 Degrees North Architects
  • "Our company had outgrown our offices and we needed something special to reflect our identity. The building we bought was a concrete bunker! We didn't make it easy for William Green Architects, but the team brought imagination in bucket loads. The design reflected everything we wanted the office to be and more. The result is that it's a great place to work, collaborate and grow."
    — Solid Structures Offices client (view project)
  • "I’ve worked with William Green Architects on a number of projects over a decade or so. They are my “go to” team for architecture. They add a great deal of value to sites by lifting the quality of the finished product. This value far outstrips their cost and as such I highly recommend them to others. Well done to Thomas and the team."
