STUDIOCARVER

We engaged STUDIOCARVER to develop concepts for a major remodeling of our home on Cape Cod. He iterated with us on designs and transformed the outdated house interior to a contemporary and more functional design for the 2020s. While keeping the exterior appearance in the Cape Cod style, Keith eliminated non-functional features and produced new features that enabled the outdoors to be “brought inside” through innovative and expansive window designs. Our Cape home has innumerable details in places like the kitchen, bathrooms, fireplace, doorways and wood trim areas. Keith provided inspiration for solutions that made all of these “perfect.” The overall result has been that guests to the home say “wow!” when they see the results of Keith’s work.

Studio Carver designed a 32 square metre suspended cantilevered structure on the side of our house. It's exactly what we had visualised. Our project is a self build and Keith has been there every step of the way. His encouragement and enthusiasm has seen me through. Thank you Keith. I can't recommend Studio Carver highly enough.

Studio Carver designed and project-managed a 15 month renovation of our Edwardian house in South London in 2020. Keith and his team were a pleasure to work with and we are delighted with the results. Keith's design concepts were creative and took account of the needs of our family life. The design process was collaborative and fun. We appreciated Keith's confidence to steer us away from ideas that, while great in theory, wouldn't work in practice. He guided us through the tender process and was a strong project manager with great communication and the ability to keep all the plates spinning while maintaining a positive outlook (even in the depths of Covid 2020 challenges). Renovating a house is fun and stressful - Studio Carver has the enthusiasm and personal touch to make the good times even more enjoyable and the strength and experience to carry you through the more challenging times.

We commissioned Studio Carver to design and project manage a large project on our 5 bedroom, 5 storey house. We were delighted with the results. We are not the easiest customers, but they were happy to iterate on designs until we were 100% happy. They are hyper-organised, you can set your watch by them. `The attention to detail is amazing. We were out of the country for the duration of the building works and could completely trust them to get the job done without any supervision or input from us. Keith has an infectious enthusiasm for his projects. It never felt stressful, and was often exciting and fun.

We purchased a run down, unmodernised Victorian terraced house. Keith immediately saw it potential and was enthusiastic about bringing the house back to life. He presented us with brilliant ideas, communicating them to us clearly and then supporting us in our choices. He guided us through the process, bringing a perfect blend of creativity, fun, technical expertise, reliability and calm. And now we have a home which we love living in.

Fantastic work. We had never imagined we would achieve much to the rear of our property in Haringey, but with Keith's talent, creativity, diligence and professionalism we unlocked an opportunity to an otherwise derelict garage and workshop. Keith conceptualised the opportunity, designed and managed the project from day one to completion. He oversaw the bidding process and the build in an efficient way working with the agents to achieve a high return on investment. Keith has a brilliant eye for design and detail and worked closely with the builders all while carefully managing costs and quality. We would happily recommend STUDIOCARVER in the future and have already to a number of friends, family offices and other prospective developers.

We chose StudioCarver for the full-scale renovation of our five-bedroom home, working primarily with Keith Carver. Keith was guided by our objectives and preferences, and provided various options to meet our needs, as well as presented unique ideas to enhance the overall design. He was proactive, communicative and thorough throughout the process, and showed a commitment to quality at all stages of the design. Keith brings good ideas, detailed plans and trustworthy vendors to the process to realize his strong designs. He is creative, organized and a pleasure to work with. We recommend him highly. Liz, NW3

Keith and Amy worked tirelessly for almost a year helping us to revolutionise our house. From coming up with clever options at the start (optimum use of space, storage, swapping rooms, etc), to tendering for the building works (including recommending fantastic builders) and finally project managing the work, they were truly excellent and dedicated. Very honest and accurate about timelines and budgets, making sure things were moving along and encouraging us to speed up if we were the hold-up. Good at being clear what additional works were nice to haves vs absolutely necessary and beating the builders down on costs. Incredibly energetic. I know our house would not be the wonderful place it now is without Keith's insights. We don't know many people who have undertaken major work to their home without some difficulties, especially with their architect or builders, but with StudioCarver it was all plain sailing.

We would strongly recommend Keith Carver. The work that he did - interior remodelling and extension - has worked out brilliantly and has transformed the way we live in our house. He had good ideas, he was positive and solutions oriented. He was great to deal with and listened to our needs and ideas.

We asked Keith Carver of StudioCarver to design and build our kitchen extension after having seen his work at our neighbors. Keith is a very good architect and project manager. His design is clean and modern with good use of space. Our project was completed on time and within budget and his attention to detail was impeccable. I would highly recommend Keith to anyone thinking of renovation or building works. Trying to do our project without an architect like Keith would have been an esthetic disaster and would probably have cost more without achieving the result were after.

StudioCarver and Keith were the key driver to the success of our family home renovations. Keith provided a very practical, always helpful and creative service at every stage of the project development. We loved his enthusiasm and fresh way of seeing things which, coupled with the number of innovative options he presented in a easy to digest way, made an initially daunting project fun and easy. We are very happy with how our house turned out.

Studio carver, and Keith in particular, really made the difference in the renovations of our apartment. His creative ideas relative to layout, light and materials and his wide network of contacts was extremely helpful throughout the whole project
