Transforming Character Properties Into Luxurious Homes
Whether you have acquired a historic stone farmhouse in a quiet French village or a sprawling country estate in the heart of the Dordogne, realising a property's true potential requires a rare blend of visionary design and practical execution.
As a specialist Architectural Designer, David Weston-Thomas bridges the gap between your dream aesthetic and the physical realities of your French property. With over three decades of international high-end residential experience, David helps home owners and rental investors transform character properties into spaces which work with and elevate contemporary patterns of living.
We’ve often experienced it, walking into a beautifully designed space - that feeling of comfort, luxury, and for lack of a better term, the “wow factor”. These spaces are the result of deliberate and applied design expertise.
Project Steps
I will work closely with you to shape a workable vision, translating your ideas into comprehensive plans—leaving you free to either manage the build yourself or have me guide the selection of every fitting and furnishing.
Reconfigure layouts to optimize natural light, spatial flow, and modern comfort.
Create detailed, easy-to-follow architectural drawings that local French builders can execute precisely.
When plans are required for local planning approvals, the plans I will generally suffice. In the event more formal approvals are required (permis de construire), I will seamlessly liaises and collaborate with local French architects on your behalf.
