Behind every project is a story, a vision, a challenge, and a home designed around the people who live in it. Explore some of our favourites below.

How we work together
From site visits to planning approvals, drawings to construction, there’s a lot to think about. We take responsibility for every stage, so you don’t have to.
From site visits to planning approvals, drawings to construction, there’s a lot to think about. We take responsibility for every stage, so you don’t have to.







Understanding your vision
The first step is simple, we meet you on site and talk through your ideas. We’ll walk the space together and uncover what matters most to you. It’s not about drawings or details yet, it’s about your lifestyle, your ambitions, and the future you want this home to support. At the same time, we’ll scan the site with our 3D scanner system, creating a precise 3D model so nothing is left to chance when the design begins.

Exploring the possibilities
With your vision clear, we start to explore what’s possible. This is where ideas take shape, through sketches, layouts, and conversations that bring your home to life. We’ll look at how spaces connect, how light moves through them, and how the design can reflect your lifestyle. It’s creative, collaborative, and practical, making sure every idea feels exciting but also works for the way you live.

Shaping the design
Once a direction feels right, we start refining the design in more detail. This is where your home really begins to take shape, from the materials to the sustainability features that will make it perform brilliantly. At this stage, we also bring in a Quantity Surveyor to review the costs alongside us, so you know the design works not only for your lifestyle but also for your budget. It’s about balancing ambition with practicality, and giving you confidence before moving forward.

Securing permission
Planning permission can feel like a maze, but we guide you through it. We’ll handle the applications and bring in specialist consultants where needed, such as planning advisors, ecologists, or heritage experts. Our role is to steer the process so your project has the best chance of approval without you getting bogged down in the detail.

Detailing every element
When building begins, we stay by your side. We’ll help you choose the right contractor, then work closely with them to keep everything on track. We visit site regularly, answer questions, and solve problems as they come up, so you don’t have to. Our role is to make sure the design is built as intended, the quality is right, and the process feels as smooth as possible from start to finish.

Matthew and the Arkhi team were just incredible on our project. They assisted us with the planning, architectural design, appointment of a building team and general management of the building renovation of our 1730s cottage in Prestbury. We absolutely love the end result as does anyone who visits our home. They made the process so easy that we are looking for our next Cheshire project to work with them on! Thank you!
Philippa
Designing Cloudhaus taught us more than any other project. Living on-site in a caravan with my family while we built it gave me a new respect for what our clients go through. It deepened our empathy and sharpened our ability to deliver homes worth the fight.
Matthew and Hayley
From the day we broke ground through to the after-build party, we could see that Arkhi felt an ownership of our house, and that it was important to them that we loved it. The house takes full advantage of the landscape and exceeds what we hoped for.

I’ve invested in multiple properties over the years, but the level of professionalism and market insight I experienced here was unmatched. This is how high-end real estate should feel.
