About Jeff
A personal, knowledgeable and cost-effective architectural service — tailored to each client and project.
I have a wealth of experience that spans over 30 years, having worked and lived in Hull, London, Sheffield and Swansea, before settling in Manordeilo, Llandeilo. For the last 20 years my work has been concentrated with domestic and commercial new build and extensions, barn conversions and listed buildings.
Prior to setting up Arwain Architects, I enjoyed many years in graduate, post graduate and architect roles, working for small, medium and large practices across the UK. Notable clients and projects have included Gwalia Housing, Wales and West Housing, Virgin Megastores, Southampton University, Sainsbury's, Headquarters for Fiat, the Royal Household — where I worked as part of a team on the restoration of Windsor Castle — Oxford University Magdalene College and sheltered housing for the English Courtyard Association.
More recently, projects have included a listed building conversion for Welsh Government, Pembrokeshire County Council funded offices for 'Prism' in Haverfordwest, and numerous new build, conversion and extension projects for individual clients across Carmarthenshire and West Wales.
