About us · RIBA Chartered Practice
Architects who know London's councils
F Line Designs specialises in residential projects, from a small rear extension to a new house. We know what each local authority expects, and we deal with planning officers on your behalf.

How we work
Every project starts with listening: how you live in the house, what you want from it and what you can spend. We check the planning position and the constraints on your site before you commit, so the price and the plan are realistic from day one.
We treat each design as a careful piece of problem solving. A good extension or loft isn't just bigger; it works better, lets in more light and suits the house it's added to.
Our specialisation
We know the complexities of building in London. From small residential projects to larger developments, we understand what each local authority expects and handle every project with care, negotiating with planning officers to achieve the best outcome for our clients.
We take each project on its own merits and design around your requirements, with the aim of making the most of every property. Fine detailing and good craftsmanship matter to us, because they're what make a home feel well made.
Professional standards
F Line Designs is a RIBA Chartered Practice, and our projects are led by architects registered with the Architects Registration Board (ARB). Only ARB-registered architects can use the title "architect" in the UK, and you can check any architect's registration on the ARB register.
Part of the Green Code group
F Line Designs is part of Green Code Holdings. Structural engineers, planning specialists and a construction team work in the same group, so your drawings, calculations and reports are coordinated by one team.
When a project calls for a fully bespoke, design-led approach, our sister practice Green Code Architects leads it.
