We're architects and designers founded in 2011 and you've found us at the perfect moment - the point at which we're both young and experienced. It means you'll get highly innovative designs but with all the practicalities thought through, youthful entrepreneurial drive but in a dependably safe pair of hands. We're intrigued by challenging constraints, unphased by large projects and more than a little obsessed with detail.
Commercial or residential, new build or renovation, we'd love to hear about your project. Founder, Jonathan Nettleton, returned to the Cotswold countryside of his childhood to launch Blake Architects in 2011. Since then, we have wrestled with railway sheds and WW2 aircraft hangers, historic barns and private houses, hotels, holiday homes and shops.
We have engaged with and challenged our clients' briefs and solved complex planning constraints where others have failed. And with every project, we have crafted poetic yet pragmatic homes and workspaces. Our light, open plan studio is a converted Cotswold barn set in beautiful countryside between Cirencester and Cheltenham.

Services
We believe that every project requires a completely bespoke approach, which is why we don't have a house style or a generic methodology either.
This flexibility allows us to seamlessly pick up a project at any stage - from tromping the ground looking for a viable site, to taking on a developed business case and an existing building.
We tailor our approach to suit each project and client, drawing on a wide range of skills and technologies - from sketching and drawing to inspire and innovate, to 3D drafting and modelling, complex environmental simulations and cutting edge virtual reality that allows clients to explore their building before a brick has been laid.

Jon recently designed and project managed a major reconfiguration of our house.
The work spanned from initial planning application drawings, through tender drawings, through engagement of major contractor and sub-contractors, through to project management of works to completion.
We found Jon to be a professional, innovative, flexible and pragmatic architect.
He was immediately in tune with what we had in mind for the property, which was reflected in his initial drawings and he coped with multiple last minutes changes of mind and scope admirably.
