JBA-Architect Turning your ideas into reality, without the fuss

Whether it’s a small internal renovation, a new extension, or a bespoke new build, I provide a personal, fast, and affordable architectural service, tailored specifically to your needs.

Residential Architect based in Edinburgh specialising in house extensions, renovations, small & medium projects

Your Home, Your Way

I understand that starting a construction project can feel overwhelming. That’s why my approach is built on humility and professional honesty. My goal isn’t to impose a grand architectural vision, but to be the technical partner you need to bring your own ideas to life.

- A personal Service:

I’ll be by your side from our first chat until the final approvals are in place.

- Total Flexibility:

Your needs come first. If your ideas evolve, the project evolves with you.

- No Surprises:

Clear, affordable fees and realistic timelines. Honesty is the foundation of everything I do.

See the Future of Your Home in 3D

To help you feel confident in every decision, I use 3D modeling for every project. You won't have to struggle to "read" a flat floor plan—you’ll be able to visualize exactly how the light enters a room or how a new extension fits your garden before any work begins.
