I can absolutely recommend Niall Hedderman. Capital A did a fantastic job to design and help create a bright and spacious living/dining/kitchen area at the rear of our Victorian home. From the initial framing session where he listened to our wishes, via a collaborative/iterative design phase to overseeing the completed project it was a pleasure to work with Niall. His eye for detail and occasional timely interventions with the builders were critical in ensuring the project ran as smoothly as it could. Despite many logistical hurdles, the project came in largely on budget and the end result is a delightful family space.

Niall was extremely patient & hugely professional in listening to our requirements even though in the end we decided against our extension. A sincere thank you to him & look forward to using his services sometime soon as proved himself hugely reliable & trustworthy.

I have never used Niall myself but I have recommended him many times to my clients (I am a financial adviser). I have known him for many a year and its always been easy to recommend him. My clients have all been more than happy with his work (and his work ethic) and the good part is I get to see all the photo's when the work is done. He leaves behind happy clients, what more could you ask for?

Without reservation I would award Niall a five star rating. I first met with Niall to discuss a small garden room extension. From our initial meeting, briefing,feasibility study,design,planning and building warrant approval through to final completion he has shown outstanding ability and expertise in all areas. I would highly recommend Niall to anyone seeking an accomplished,highly skilled and dedicated architect with modern architectural design flair with an eye for detail and a very fair fee structure. You will be in safe hands.
