How our heritage
architecture service
works
It’s quite unusual for a heritage architect
to also be an eco architect. How many
architects are competent at working on a
400-year-old building and designing a
modern house that gets to net zero?
Jo has a genuine love for architecture –
she understands how people want to live.
Her success comes from being open to
the client’s ideas and having a general
understanding of its setting and how
people will perceive it.
James Taylor entrepreneur and property developer
Ecotecture’s service is unexpectedly very
good. The best thing was their
helpfulness during the build. They were
always there when we needed them.
They have engaging staff who are easy to
talk to. I’d recommend them – and I have.
