What our clients say about Inkpen Downie.

Client - Essex
Mr N


"We have now engaged Inkpen Downie to work with us on two projects, the restoration and extension of a traditional period village home and the restoration and conversion of a timber framed historic building. In both cases, the attention to detail in historical research, architectural design and client interpretation has been extraordinary. They are an engaging, inspiring and client focused architectural practice. We feel very comfortable working with them".

Client - St Peter's Church, Harold Wood.
David Banting

"On behalf of the Project Group and felllowship of St Peter's, I want to write to thank you and the design team for the gift of our new buildings. I believe you may have spoken with Alan already about the overwhelming day we had yesterday on our 'first day back' - there was a buzz and warmth of the buildings fit for purpose in the welcome and service of people, by the end of the day, some 600 had passed through.

Thank you for all your labours in design and execution, in consultation and response and in partnership with us. Under God, so much has been envisaged and attempted, and it is thrilling to see it finally come together for Day One of God's future for St Peter's. We shall no doubt see more of each other during finishing and snagging, and of course (I trust) over the great Opening and Dedicated weekend of February 5th -7th, 2010, but at this critical and memorable moment of taking delivery of the new buildings we send you our deep thanks and appreciation.

Client - St George's, Walthamstow
Father John Hayes

"I want to congratulate you on the design and appearance both internally and externally of St George's Walthamstow. It is easily the best I've seen since Vatican II. Not only is it designed to meet present liturgical requirements, but above all it is a building I could pray in easily.

I hope this is only the beginning because we are in desperate need of Churches of quality that reflect the age in which we live.

The Clergy on the Finance Board was very pleased with the Building".

Very best Wishes.
John.

Client - St Saviours, Oxton
Chairman, Parish Centre Committee

"The building is very well used for a wide variety of activities and has been much commended by those living in the local area and from further afield.  As well as being an extremely comfortable venue always pleasantly warm, so many people comment  upon how beautifully it complements the existing church building and what excellent use has been made of the available space, in all - what a great design it is.

Thank you again and our good wishes to you all for the fast approaching festive season"
