Looking for Architects in Bromley?
AURA Architecture specialises in residential design, planning and home improvement projects across Surrey. Since 2014 we’ve been designing home extensions and refurbishments, loft conversions, basement conversions, and bespoke new build homes for our customers.
Our architects create simple, natural, light-filled spaces, that are energy-efficient, sustainable, and maximise your space. We can manage every aspect of the process for you including selecting and project managing the builder or main contractor.
We think about every aspect of a space when we prepare designs, making sure that we use the space carefully and creatively to create the home that you want.
We understand the local architecture requirements in all the main Surrey towns from Epsom in the northeast to Farnham in the west and everywhere in between.
We also prepare all documents and drawings needed to show that the project complies with national Building Regulations.
To ensure the interior and finish of your space has a high-end finish that fully realises your plans, we provide a full Specification of Works covering interior design, finer finishes and fittings.
We also handle the tender process ensuring there is a range of competitive quotes from trusted suppliers for all work, and that contracts cover all critical information.
We monitor the build process, resolving any issues that arise and reporting back to you regularly.
At the end of this, the final stage is for you to ENJOY the space we’ve helped you create!
Or, for a more involved option, we offer a Concept Feasibility Package where we’ll meet you at your property, produce some concept designs and provide a Preliminary Cost Plan!
The Core Values At AURA are:
Honesty and integrity
Innovation and creativity
Attention to detail
Understanding and respecting people
Sustainability
The values underpin our vision which is to:
Maximise your home’s space, ensuring that it’s tailored to your needs
Make use of natural light to improve your sense of well being and your home’s airiness
Create designs that are clean and simple, but use dashes of colour and textures to create added interest
Create energy-efficient buildings by thinking sustainably
Adding Value to my Property in Bromley
With the councils plans to carry out construction work to Bromley’s over the next 10 to 15 years, the value of properties in the area is sure to rise, which is great news!
Extensions and Renovations are an additional way to add great value to your property, while simultaneously helping to create more space for growing families, and adapting to work more from home.
From the get go, we are very open and transparent about our fees and costs, and want to work with our clients to maximise the value of the property and meet their wants and needs. Often architecture fees get looked upon as an unnecessary cost rather than the value that they can bring, a good architect will use their experience to fully understand your brief, while offering suggestions to give more options.

Architecture Costs in Bromley
AURA have a transparent fixed fee structure, which can be viewed online here.
This differs with many Bromley Architects, who charge a percentage of the overall project costs.
The quotes that we provide are fully itemised, this means that you can make an informed decision on which architect that you chose. It also means that you can see how and where your budget is being allocated, maximising your budget to its full capacity will mean that you can get more of the things that you want in your home, however, we never like to see our clients go above the line.
Getting everything laid out from the start means that you won’t be left with any unpleasant surprises.

As main contractors with appreciation for good and efficient design, we were very impressed with Aura from day 1.
The tender pack had more information than some other projects we have done at completion, all the information is precise and … More carefully considered.
On top of that their ongoing project management is flexible and approachable.
Hope we get to work with them again in the future. -

We instructed Aura Architects for a self-build project, they have seamlessly guided us through the process with great care and detail. We have thoroughly enjoyed with Francesco who was been extremely helpful and patient with the project, … More getting us to planning approval which took over 2 years but this did not deter his dedication to the project in what has been a very challenging process.
The whole process has been handled professionally with great communication and understanding from Aura who have taken great care to ensure we are happy and understand each of the key elements.
We are absolutely thrilled with what Aura have created for us and we can not wait to see the project come to life.
I am pleased to recommend Aura for any of your architectural needs! They have been fab and most importantly reliable! Thanks very much and a special thanks to Francesco.
Thanks, J&D. -

Ben is firstly a great guy, full of ideas and creativity and positivity, along with experience and intelligence. Secondly, he isn't going anywhere, he is very trustworthy, a man of his word, stable and growing his business in and around … More London. Always looking to find the best solution for your needs and not afraid to show ambition for your project, whilst having a strong knowledge of all current rules/regs and an understanding of the objectives and constraints of the planning system. As an outgoing and gregarious networker, he has positioned Aura as introducer & deal-maker, so if you need introductions to trusted quality services like: Builders, Project Finance, Consultants (e.g. Traffic, Trees, Planning Law) - he usually knows someone!

I recently contacted Aura Homes Ltd to discuss a small development project. The project was unusual and a lot of factors needed to be taken into account due to the location, site surroundings and practicality of the proposal.
I originally … More discussed it with Ben Richards who I found to be helpful, knowledgable and very accommodating in that he listened intently to give a fair assessment of feasibility.
Iris Kouneni was assigned to me and met with me to thoroughly discuss and understand what my intentions were. Like Ben, she digested my layman’s view and proceeded to give me her professional opinion.
Iris and Ben were an absolute delight to work with, professional, knowledgeable, enthusiastic and communicative to mention just a few of their qualities.
Unfortunately due to the COVID19 lockdown we have had to shelve the project.
It's been a pleasure to work with Aura Homes Ltd, refreshingly honest and professional.
I look forward to working together with them in the future.
