Alterations and extension to a listed building in the East Lothian countryside :
It was a real pleasure to work with Kath Thomson on the alterations to our B listed house. She was great at listening to our ideas in drawing up the plans, she kept in touch with East Lothian's planners and building control so that the process was very smooth and un-problematic and she worked with the builders in a way that showed both respect and authority. I would highly recommend Kath to others thinking of embarking on a residential building project.

Office refurbishment and House Alterations, Edinburgh and North Berwick :
"I have used Kath on two occasions. The first time was to redesign my work office - 4500 square feet. She did a fantastic job not only in her architectural ideas and plans but also in managing all the contractors that were required. She met the brief perfectly and she was a joy to work with. The second time I used her was to redesign our kitchen. Again she was excellent to work with, professional yet very friendly and helpful'".

Kath is a true professional and her timeliness with our drawings and planning application were very efficient. Our experience was such that we would recommend Kath to anyone looking for an architect to do a similar job to ours".

"Kath took the redevelopment of an old disused Victorian wash-house in Stockbridge into modern offices all the way through from conception to final handover. She has a very practical approach to redevelopment work such as this and helped us with every stage of the project. We were delighted with her creativity, practical common sense and 'can do' attitude. The final result was stunning and Kat gave us real value for money. We will definitely use Kath again on future projects".
