ABOUT US
“Being a Cotswold architect, I love the beauty and the artistic freedom that the landscape brings. It inspires me every day to design what I love most – a client’s perfect home.”- Ashleigh Clarke, Founder and Architect
Every architectural design is a balancing act. A classic balance of form and function.
We believe that buildings are homes as well as houses.
We’re ambitious in our architecture and practical in our approach.

Our architectural practice experience spans from environmental retrofits of existing buildings to the complete planning and design of new neighbourhoods and public spaces. We are residential specialists, particularly within the Cotswolds, AONB, and Conservation Areas, and work in partnership with specialist heritage consultants and historic and Listed buildings.
Whilst our work is aesthetically diverse, our projects are always linked by a focus on enhancing human relationships through architecture.

"We had the pleasure of working with Ashleigh & team renovating our home, a Grade II barn conversion. From navigating the planning process, suggesting some transformative ideas, delivering the design and coordinating with other teams in our project, Ashleigh was consistently professional yet warm, and an overall joy to work with. Listed building renovations are bound to come with surprises, and having Ashleigh in our court made the difference where it mattered most. I can happily recommend him."
- Diego Actis
"Ashleigh is by far the best architect we have used. Calm under pressure, very accurate and precise, and I thoroughly recommend him for your project whether large or small."
- Nigel Rowley
"Ashleigh provided prompt, clear advice when I consulted him over my Grade II listed building consent application. His advice was on point and helpful and always timely. I am pleased to say that consent was granted. Thank you, Ashleigh!"
- Ms K Saffarian
"Ashleigh is not only an incredible architect but also a genuinely lovely person. I would have no hesitation recommending Ashleigh Clarke Architects to family and friends."
- Lizzie Roberts
"When informing the locals in the village that we were going to modify the glorified bungalow we had purchased, most replied that in their opinion we should demolish the then existing building and start again. Fortunately, we had a good architect. Ashleigh's design brought modernity and spaciousness to the finished product with an emphasis on light and connection with outside. Now all any locals or visitors say is - Wow!! Really love your house mate!!"
- Mr P Brazel
"Ashleigh, besides designing and drawing, also project managed the work undertaken; liaising successfully with the builders at all stages and coming up with innovative solutions whenever unexpected challenges arose. I would have no hesitation in recommending him for your project."
- Mr P Brazel
"Ashleigh created a beautiful functional open plan design for our home. He was a pleasure to work with and nothing was too much trouble. On top of this, he managed to save us money, his attention to detail is second to none. We cannot recommend Ashleigh highly enough."
- Mr & Mrs D Parker
"Ashleigh has worked on two separate projects and both times came up with a beautiful, functional design which suited our style of living. He was an absolute pleasure to deal with, nothing was too much trouble and his attention to detail gave us an inner calm throughout the design and build process. I could not recommend Ashleigh highly enough and if I'm ever in need of an Architect again, I know who I will be calling!"
- Mrs L Moore
"I hired Ashleigh for a tricky extension design for which I had little hope to get a satisfying result. But thankfully I was wrong as Ashleigh managed to provide me with a great concept and I am looking forward to getting it implemented. The result is due to Ashleigh's ability to listen to my requirements and combining it with the existing aesthetics of the house."
- Mr & Mrs A Vaughan
"Additionally to the very pleasant interaction with Ashleigh, I like his transparency about costs which are clearly communicated by Ashleigh from the beginning without any unpleasant surprises. I can therefore highly recommend Ashleigh!"
- Mr & Mrs A Vaughan
"Ashleigh designed a one and a half storey extension on an awkward site that opened up our cottage and gave us a large ensuite bathroom. We are so pleased with the finished space - it has transformed the entire house and it works so well. We couldn't be happier!"
- Mr R Weeks
