We worked with Most architecture for over 5 years to obtain our perfect home. It took so long because of Covid (2 years of enforced pause) and laborious freeholders, but through it all Olga and her team were great. We have never regretted choosing them to design our complex remodel of our ground floor maisonette. They’re solutions were beautiful and innovative and everyone who sees it is impressed by the details and the overall look that fits well with the existing building. We were very scared at embarking on such a big project and had never done anything like this before and this was our family home -so it had to be right. But now, we are sitting in our finished house and it is beautiful. As the seasons change it’s amazing to see the light travel through and how it alters everything. And also finding different views and vantages that throw up interesting details as we move round the space. Our children love the space and so do we. We could not have done this without Most.

We have had a fantastic experience working with MOST team. Olga and her team have been professional, patient and extremely attentive, always taking the time to understand our ideas and explain the technical aspects clearly. We particularly appreciate their attention to detail, responsiveness and ability to bring the architectural and design elements together in a thoughtful way without compromising on the deliverables we had in mind. It has been a pleasure working with them, and we would happily recommend them to anyone.

I truly believe Olga is the best thing that happened to us during the renovation of our house. She is very creative, has lots of ideas and solutions, and - most importantly - tries to help you save money. We were on quite a tight budget, so she helped us keep the costs down while at the same time making the place look a million dollars. She is a perfectionist, and her attention to (even the smallest) detail is incredible. The way she deals with contractors... it's phenomenal! She would spend 10 minutes talking to our builders, and - boom! - they've agreed to do things that they previously stated were "impossible", or got them to finally agree to put the price down etc. She will not let go until everything is up to standard. I am absolutely in awe of her. Here is a little story that pretty much sums it all up. Once, during a meeting with Olga, I get a call from a wooden flooring company telling me they cannot send me the thousand or so samples I wanted, because their policy is 3 samples per order only. Olga overhears me talking to them and demands the phone. One minute later, the box of samples is sent to my address. :) This is just one of many examples of the wonders this woman does. Renovation is such a stressful process, so if you want peace of mind - look no further, she's the one for you.

We requested the services of MOST Architecture after buying a new property which had a cramped, dated layout that was in need of a re-jig. Initially we were considering a loft extension, however the plans and ideas provided by our architect at MOST dissuaded us from this and provided some very good value ideas for opening up and rationalising the existing space. We would not have identified these options without their input. The works are now underway and we are already seeing major improvements towards a much lighter, modern and open layout.

We commissioned MOST Architecture to provide a design for a traditional Russian spa - or "banya" in West London. Whilst the location on Chiswick High Street was very favourable, the space itself had many constraints - the shape was long and narrow, there was a change in level and quite low ceilings throughout. We needed to fit in a lot of different spaces - reception, changing rooms, the main steam room, or "Parnaya", a wet zone with a plunge pool, a relaxation lounge with booths, toilets and back of house with kitchen, staff room, plant room and office. It was a real challenge to design a space that contained all the desired functional rooms whilst providing for a logical and efficient customer flow. MOST came up with a inventive design of curved walls for the steam room which became the focal point and the main feature of the spa. The shower enclosure and the plunge pool followed the same circular pattern. The challenge of a limited ceiling height was overcome with coffered stretch ceiling enclosures creating light wells in the otherwise constrained space. The use of glass blocks in the wet zone visually expanded the space and enhanced the feeling of a premium spa. We particularly liked the mosaic tiles proposed by MOST for the plunge pool - hexagon silver mosaics with a mother of pearl effect evoke the image of an icy pond offering a welcome cooling off after the heat of the steam room. The colours and other details of the space all combine to create a sense of Nordic nature - serene and soothing. We are very happy with the resulting product and get a lot of compliments from the customers.
