How it All Started

Home & Maker is the brainchild of design entrepreneur Isabella Open, who believes that everybody deserves a well designed home, and industry insider Nathan McNamara who uses his professional know-how to connect homeowners with talented designers for an affordable price. Together, they formed Home & Maker - an online architecture service that designs dream homes at unbeatable value.

What Matters to Us

We take time to make sure our home designs are always characterful, research based, widely desirable and ethically sound.

Social homes

It’s important that our designs link to your neighbourhoods, communities, and all and any future residents of that home.

User-friendly

Where possible we stick to the best indoor space standards; considering the shape and proportion of your home and creating simple layouts that are practical and flexible for you, your family and for when you have guests over.

Longevity & sustainability

Investing our time and your money into the homes of the UK, asks us as architects and designers to consider the lifetime of our designs, ensuring that they are built to last, are energy efficient and ethically responsible.

Wellbeing for happy healthy homes

To make the most of simple domestic activities such as bathing or laundry we prioritise clean, bright and airy spaces.

Financial value

We prioritise easy maintenance and reasonable utility bills in our designs to make your home economical. We also want to make sure that our designs only ever add value.

Locally valued and good looking

Home & Maker architectural designs & services always strive to create characterful homes, through being individual, local or traditional.
