Geoff + Louise, Sheffield, S8

We were embarking on a significant basement conversion project on our home in Woodseats, Sheffield. After receiving quotes from several building companies we soon felt lost and overwhelmed. A friend who works in architectural services recommended Nathan at Ikonografik to help us with the design of the project as well as navigating complexities such as planning permission, building regulations etc.

From the first conversation with Nathan we knew that we were in safe hands and the project almost instantly had structure and focus and we felt for the first time that we were actually going to make it happen. Nathan took the time to understand what we wanted and made clear and achievable what had previously seemed impenetrable.

Nathan provided highly detailed plans and was amenable to alterations and changes. He also arranged for planning permission visits and paperwork and regulation checks and guided us through processes such as the Party Wall Act. 

The builders that we eventually employed for the work were able to follow his plans throughout the entire build. Using Ikonografik saved us time, money and hassle throughout the project. Having clear designs and timelines from the start made everything easier and meant that the project was able to stick closer to time and budget.

It’s clear that Nathan really cares about his work and showed a real interest in our project. The conversion has made a huge difference to our family life, expanding the functional space for our family of five significantly as well as providing an office space for home working. 

I would not hesitate to recommend Ikonografik to anyone looking to embark on conversions, extensions or any architectural projects.
