Architects in Wiltshire

ReFrame Studio is an RIBA Chartered architecture practice working with homeowners and self-builders across Wiltshire designing well-crafted, sustainable homes that respond to the areas architectural heritage and landscape.

Residential Architects in Wiltshire

ReFrame Studio works with homeowners and self-builders across Wiltshire, designing carefully considered homes that respond to their setting and the way people live. Our projects range from home extensions and renovations to new-build houses and self-build projects, often within historic villages, rural landscapes and sensitive contexts.

Wiltshire has a distinctive architectural character - from its historic market towns and vernacular stone cottages to its expansive countryside and heritage settings. Our approach focuses on creating thoughtful, well-crafted homes that balance heritage, sustainability and modern living. Based nearby in Bath, we bring a strong understanding of the regional context and the nuances of working within Wiltshire’s rural and protected landscapes.

Planning Permission in Wiltshire

Navigating planning permission in Wiltshire can be complex, particularly within conservation areas, listed buildings, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Green Belt land. As an RIBA Chartered architecture practice, we guide clients through the entire planning process - from early feasibility studies and pre-application advice to preparing and submitting planning applications.

Our understanding of Wiltshire’s local planning authorities, combined with our experience of Green Belt policy and rural planning constraints, helps us develop proposals that respond sensitively to their context while meeting the needs of homeowners and self-builders. By combining thoughtful design with a clear planning strategy, we help maximise the chances of achieving a successful planning outcome.

Winsley
New Oak-framed House

Located in the village of Winford within the Chew Valley just outside Bristol, this charming rural cottage was thoughtfully remodelled to elevate both its functionality and character. The project introduced a refined guest suite, a bespoke oak staircase and carefully crafted joinery, seamlessly blending the building’s historic fabric with contemporary detailing.

Meet the Team

Our Bath studio provides architectural services in the Wiltshire area. It is led by Carly, who grew up in nearby Bath and returned in 2021 after working in Cambridge, bringing her experience back to the place she has always called home.

Based in Bath, the studio works with clients across Wiltshire. Carly has a strong understanding of the Wiltshire Council planning process, alongside an established network of trusted local consultants and suppliers who support projects from concept through to completion.

She is available for face-to-face meetings and regular site visits, guiding clients through each stage with clear, collaborative advice. Her design approach is shaped by Wiltshire’s diverse architectural character - from its historic market towns and vernacular stone villages to its rural landscapes and heritage sites - as well as the surrounding countryside of the Cranborne Chase National Landscape, Salisbury Plain and the wider West Country.

This local understanding informs projects that respond carefully to their setting, with a thoughtful, place-led approach that balances heritage, sustainability and contemporary living.
