I am passionate about creating homes that are beautiful, respond to their context, and are sustainable – ones that people will love using for generations to come. My expertise lies in designing traditional houses, extensions, conversions, and refurbishments, frequently involving a conservation context. I respond to my client’s brief by drawing on vernacular or classical precedents to produce buildings and spaces that are legible, well-crafted, and work for contemporary living.My expertise and interest lies in designing traditional homes - this includes new-build houses, extensions and interiors. I am used to working with period properties, including listed houses, and dealing with conservation issues. I am a chartered architect with 28 years experience and have my own practice in Bath.

We chose James Armitage from a number of potential architects for our development project because of his excellent communications and his keen local knowledge of building in Bath, and what would be acceptable to the planning authority. We were delighted with his efforts that resulted in Full Planning Permission for 2 semi-detached houses ahead of schedule, despite an objection and other site concerns. Throughout the project he continued to be communicative, helpful and friendly and we fully recommend him.

James had the best ideas out of the three architects we interviewed for some fairly major extension and renovation work on a grade II listed farmhouse in Ashley, Wiltshire. He then managed the contractors ably to ensure the work was carried out to the best standard. We are very pleased with the look and the quality of the buildings, and can only recommend his team to others.
