I am an ARB-registered architect with over 15 years’ experience, specialising in working with existing buildings. My work is informed by a strong sensitivity to context and provenance, and a belief in the value of thoughtful transformation.

I work across both residential and select commercial retrofit projects. I sit on the judging panel for the Architects’ Journal Retrofit Awards and continue to engage with the wider architectural community through teaching and guest crits.

At its heart, my work is about helping homeowners shape spaces that support and enrich daily life, homes that feel intuitive, personal, and designed to be lived in for years to come.

About

Rachel Eccles Design is a Hertfordshire-based architecture and interiors studio that crafts thoughtful homes to enhance everyday living. The practice specialises in working with residential clients to rejuvenate existing buildings with contemporary alterations.

Homes should feel like personal sanctuaries and so our studio works collaboratively with our clients to create spaces that feel comforting, intuitive and curated – a visual collection of life’s experiences.
