Exceeding expectations through innovative architecture

At Abode Architects, we believe that every project, from the smallest house extension to the largest new build development, should feel like home. We are a RIBA chartered practice with over 15 years of experience, and we are passionate about delivering innovative, bespoke designs that delight our clients.

Our Story

Our journey began over 15 years ago when Andrew and Rosemary Tomkins opened their practice in Farnham, Surrey. We started as a small office in the centre of the town, once a blacksmith's forge, which showcased our ability to refurbish historic buildings as well as create contemporary new spaces. We have recently redesigned and reconfigured the space as a modern, spacious home, reflecting our commitment to transforming spaces into unique homes.

Our Approach

At Abode Architects, we take a creative and inclusive approach to architectural design. We believe that every project is unique and requires a tailored approach. We take the time to understand our clients' needs through inquisitive listening and explorative collaboration. Our team is passionate about exploring design options through sketches and 3D CAD models, and we pride ourselves on our technical drawings and extensive site experience.

We offer a range of services, including:

  • Residential Design: From small house extensions to large new build developments, we design homes that are tailored to our clients' needs and aspirations.
  • Commercial Design: We design office spaces, restaurants, and retail outlets that are functional, efficient, and aesthetically pleasing.
  • Workplace Design: We create innovative and functional workplaces that improve productivity and employee satisfaction.
