Architect and Interior designer cheshire based

DOVE Architecture & DOVE Interior Design are a RIBA chartered New Build Architect and Interior Designer Practice in Cheshire, focusing on new build residential, house extensions, Passivhaus, we work throughout Cheshire, Knutsford, Warrington, Wilmslow and further afield. A vibrant and growing company with an impressive reputation to equal its high standard of design

The Cheshire architect practice was formed in 2012 by Derry Vaughan Edwards following eight years as an associate at award winning practice Stedman Blower Architects based in Surrey. Here she gained a wealth of experience working on high end residential, listed buildings and education projects. However, her love of the North and rural Cheshire brought her home to set up DOVE architecture.

DOVE architecture undertake commissions on all scales; we are a new build architect, house extension architect, Passivhaus, and commercial. We create modern, but not always contemporary, architecture that is fitting of its context. We work throughout Cheshire, Warrington, Knutsford, Wilmslow, Alderley Edge and the North West.

The Interior Designer practice was formed in 2020 after many requests from existing Architecture clients.  At DOVE interior design we believe that good design isn’t just lovely design. A good design should solve the end users problems and challenges, transforming their space into a beautiful AND functional space, whilst exceeding the client’s expectations.

We work with a very varied clientele throughout Cheshire, Knutsford, Wilmslow, Alderley Edge, Warrington and the North West on a very varied array of projects. Whatever the project, size or cost our ethos remains the same, functionality, clever solutions and attention to detail are key. Once the problems are resolved, then the magic happens.
