About Us

Arkipad Architects is a small, design-led architectural practice built around people, place, and process.

 

We believe the best architecture comes from collaboration. That’s why we design with our clients, not just for them. Every project begins with listening; understanding how you live, what matters to you, and what you want your building to become.

Being a small studio allows us to work closely and personally with each client. We remain intimately involved in every project, from the first sketch to the final detail, ensuring clarity, continuity, and care throughout the journey. You won’t be passed between teams or lost in layers of management; you’ll work directly with the architect shaping your design.

Our approach is friendly, open, and design focused. We enjoy the process as much as the outcome and aim to make it collaborative, transparent, and genuinely enjoyable. Whether working on sensitive historic buildings or contemporary new spaces, we balance creativity with rigour, and ambition with practicality.

At Arkipad, architecture is not a product handed over at the end, it’s a shared process.

Thoughtful, considered, and shaped together.

“We have been working with Edoardo for over a year, from the very early pre-planning stages through an exceptionally long and drawn-out planning application.

The process was made even more challenging by difficult neighbour who threatened judicial review and the application ultimately had to go to committee before permission was finally granted.This was a long unpleasant and stressful planning journey, but Ed stood by us throughout with patience, resilience, and unwavering support. He also produced an amazing design that we genuinely believe is an architectural masterpiece.

Beyond his technical skill and dedication, he is simply a good human being. Edoardo is not only an excellent Architect but a truly good human who became a friend during the process. We’re very grateful for everything he’s done and would highly recommend to anyone looking for high quality architectural services”
