ABOUT US

James Pooley Architecture is an Architectural Practice based in North London. It was established in October 2020 by James Pooley, and draws on his years of experience at award winning architectural practices.

The Practice’s design approach is to preserve the essence of the existing, while boosting environmental performance. We believe that the reuse of buildings creates the most sustainable solution, reducing the embodied energy of the project. There is also the intangible benefit of preserving a link to the past for the benefit of the community.

By prioritising an understanding how people use the spaces inside and outside the building during the briefing and design development process we develop more successful strategies for the building. We believe in a collaborative approach to design and want to work with you to develop your ideas into real deliverable changes to your home. By modelling projects in 3D we can tour the building with you at home or in your office, allowing tough design decisions to be made swiftly.

Chris Riding

Just brilliant. James proved to be exceptionally knowledgeable and attentive to every little detail. He was incredibly thorough and consistently made sure we were aware of any potential hiccups that could arise along the way—even though none of them materialised. His communication was always polite, clear, and professional, and he broke the entire process down into stages so we fully understood how everything worked and what to expect. He responded promptly to all our queries and was more than happy to go above and beyond whenever we had additional questions. We felt supported throughout the whole project. We would absolutely recommend James without hesitation.
