Reavell Architects is a small, design-led, RIBA chartered architectural practice in Warlingham, specialising in residential projects including home extensions and loft conversions as well as bespoke new-build homes.

Residential Architects based in Tandridge

We provide expert architectural design services, tailored to the unique needs of each of our home-owner clients, throughout Surrey, South London, and the surrounding areas. From contemporary extensions and open-plan living spaces to complete home refurbishments, planning and building control applications, we pride ourselves in designing beautiful, practical homes that maximise space, natural light, and functionality.

A bit more about us

  • Whatever the scale of your home improvement dreams, we are passionate about designing beautiful bespoke living spaces that will transform the way you and your family live in your home.

    • Bespoke home extensions

    • Garage conversions

    • Garden rooms

    • One-off new build houses

  • As a small practice, we are ideally placed to provide a highly personal design service to local home owners.

    Ros is committed to meeting all potential clients in person, getting to know them as best she can before a project even gets off the ground.

    As a female architect, Ros has a deep understanding of the challenges of modern family homes as well as the potential pit falls and opportunities that arise from converting and refurbishing existing homes.

    Whatever the scale, each project is unique and will benefit from our full attention - we pride ourselves in taking the time to get to know you and how you live so that you get the best out of the design process.

    We recognise that many of our clients might only undertake one major home renovation project in their lifetime and we are here to make that process as smooth, collaborative and stress-free as possible.

    It should be a joy to create your dream home, not a chore!

  • We believe that really well designed living spaces can transform lives - and they shouldn’t have to cost the earth!

    We feel strongly that it is the people who really matter. Getting to know our clients and how they live and use their space is absolutely integral to our design process.

    At the heart of our design ethos are maximising natural light, improving flow of space, optimising efficiency of space and storage as well as enhancing both physical and visual indoor-outdoor connections.

    The often forgotten in-between spaces can make or break a project and should not be overlooked or their value underestimated.

Ros Reavell, Director of Reavell Architects, is a Surrey based Architect with more than 20 years experience working across a range of residential projects, from extensions and one-off houses to the refurbishment of Grade Listed homes.

  • "Working with Ros on our house renovation was an incredibly positive experience. She listened carefully to what was important to us and, thanks to her ingenuity, we now have a beautiful, unique space that works perfectly for our family."

    —Sophie & Graham, Charmouth Road

  • "We are delighted with the final result. The extension has transformed the way we use our home while respecting the charm and character of the original cottage. We would not hesitate to recommend Reavell Architects."

    Alex & Helen, Appletree Cottage

  • "Ros brought ideas we wouldn't have considered ourselves, which ultimately became some of the best features of our extension. She helped us make better decisions and the whole process felt very collaborative."

    — Dan & Antonia, Sanderstead

  • "Ros is very personable and experienced which put us at ease. She listened to our ideas and suggested ways to improve and build them. We felt supported and heard throughout the process."

    —Gareth & Emily, Mosslea Road

  • "Ros was very open to our ideas but also supported us in being bolder with our design, guiding us through alternatives that we hadn’t considered. Our favourite part of the project is the light from the large skylights and sliding doors."

    —Kathleen & Ben, Derrick Road

Ros Reavell, founder and Director of Reavell Architects, is a Surrey based ARB registered Architect with more than 20 years experience working across a range of projects, from one-off houses to large mixed use developments. Her background is in residential design with a focus on the renovation and extension of existing buildings.

Reavell Architects brings Ros’s wealth of design, planning and construction experience to Tandridge and the surrounding areas, providing a highly personal bespoke design service to help local home owners get the most from their homes.

A self-employed mother to two young children, Ros understands all too well the frustrations of houses that do not meet the fundamental requirements of modern family homes; the ever increasing need for space and storage, the importance of good and easy access between house and garden and, now more than ever, the very real need for designated and well designed home working space.

“Our own family home in Surrey is an ever-evolving architecture, landscape and storage project!

We spend so much of our lives in our homes that their design can have a huge impact on our health and well-being, as well as on how we live and interact with our families and friends. Well designed living spaces really can transform lives.

Working with our clients to maximise the potential of their homes, whether that might involve an extension, new kitchen, loft conversion or simply fitting in a downstairs WC, is always both a privilege and a joy.

There is such pleasure to be taken in seeing our projects come to life and hearing how our clients are enjoying the spaces we have designed for them.”
