in a little barn
Deborah Somerville is an experienced RIBA and ARB registered Chartered Architect. She studied at Plymouth School of Architecture, graduating with a First Class Honours degree, then gained her Diploma in Architecture alongside a postgraduate diploma in Landscape Design.
After more than twenty years in architectural practice, she formed her own practice in November 2008. The studio is a little, unassuming barn on the edge of Bideford, shared with A.B Landscape Design.
Landscape designer Amanda Bonnefin works in close collaboration with the architectural team, from garden design for new extensions to landscape schemes for new developments.
