What our clients say about us
Don't Just Take Our Word for It
I really enjoyed being part of the 'design in a day' process and also seeing how an architect problem-solves on the spot; it was really interesting for me, and Charlie was patient and mindful of the needs of the whole household throughout the process.
Excited to see the next stages!
Greg Meade (Private Client)
Architecture Unknown led the design through to installation of a new door and ramp at St. Clement's Church in East Manchester, showing patience and support during the process of arranging the required permissions and funding. The building works were carried out sympathetically and I have no hesitation recommending AU? as a great firm of architects to work with.
Thanks and Blessings!
Steve Helme
Architecture Unknown are a great team, incredibly passionate and enthusiastic about people and architecture.
A pleasure to work with and learn from during the process of developing our project. We’re looking forward to collaborating again in the future with this outstanding company.
James and Steve Robinson (Digital Woodoo)
I’ve worked in the construction industry in London for over 35 years. The product offered by Naked Build and Architecture Unknown? is beautifully unique. A professional experience from start to finish via a highly creative team.
They have blended their construction skills with new technology and innovation and they're passionate about their own values of quality design that doesn’t cost the earth. From outset through to the design stage and onto planning they spent time getting to know me and ensuring they understood my vision for the project.
Their customer service offer remains one of the best experiences I have had when buying a product. I’d happily recommend Chris, Dan and Charlie as exceptional people who deliver exceptional work.
Nicola Eyre (Private Client)
Charlie was amazing!! Listened to us, gave us lots of ideas and the finish product of my extension is amazing! Thank you so much, we love our new extension.
Sajas Salim (Private Client)
We’ve had a long term project with the team over a number of years. Their patience, guidance and encouragement has been amazing.
Josiah Sulc (CEO at Rooted In)
Architecture Unknown is a company you rarely come across; mixing close personal connection, future-led design, environmental ethics and social conscience in equal measure. There's an immediacy of ease and involvement, with community their focus.
The journey is seen as just as important as the outcome. This makes them great to work with and an ideal fit for National Trust, where we value everyone welcome.
Chris Shepard (National Trust)
It has been great working with Architecture Unknown, the final outcome is a fantastic-looking building that will serve as a brilliant Scouts HQ and community resource.
AU’s Wikihouse design enabled us to keep costs down by using volunteers for some of the assembly work as well as allowing community involvement in the construction.

(2nd Whalley Range Scouts)
Architecture Unknown were flexible in their approach in providing a ‘Design in a Day” service that met our needs to create initial designs for an amazing frontline community asset, within our small financial budget.
Working with Charlie and Dan, and in particular their personal approach to client requirements, has provided us with an initial vision that has enabled us to share our ambitions with potential investors and funding bodies.
