Our work

This page brings together a selection of projects delivered by Folly Architects — from domestic residential work across Harrow and London through to complex, regulated residential commissions undertaken across London and, where appropriate, throughout the UK.

Our portfolio includes extensions, loft conversions, internal reconfiguration and full refurbishments, alongside Higher-Risk Building (HRB) projects and compliance-led architectural work operating within the framework of the Building Safety Act.

The aim is not simply to show completed outcomes, but to demonstrate the thinking and technical coordination behind them: planning strategy, regulatory navigation, consultant coordination, buildability and structured delivery from concept through to construction.

Folly Architects is led by an ARB-registered architect with multidisciplinary experience across architectural practice, project management consultancy and developer-led environments. This background informs a delivery-focused approach that integrates design quality with commercial awareness and proportionate risk management.

Each project reflects a careful balance between ambition, compliance and long-term value — whether adapting a family home or navigating the additional scrutiny associated with higher-risk residential buildings.
