Konstantina Samara
BA(Hons), DipArch ARB RIBA
My architectural journey began when I relocated from Greece to Newcastle to study for my BA (Hons) in Architecture. After completing my degree I moved to Liverpool to gain Part I work experience at a multi-national practice, AEDAS Architects Ltd, Liverpool Office (now Abbey Holford Rowe). I chose to remain in Liverpool to study for my Diploma in Architecture at John Moores University. After that, I became a Part II Architectural Assistant at Pollard Thomas Edwards Architects.
2011 I moved to Bude in 2016 I started working as a freelance architectural designer and started my own company. Between 2018-2021 I worked at Metters and Wellbys Ltd, at Bude while I was studying the RIBA Part III course - the Advanced Diploma in Professional Practice in Architecture towards my qualification as a chartered RIBA Architect.
Since 2022 I have resumed my freelance work as Chartered Architect.

We met Konstantina about 4 years ago. She admired our house. We said we loved the location and house but we had to compromise on a few things, as you do when you buy a home.
Konstantina asked what would be on our wish list.
We then spent a while thinking about it. She has now successfully guided us through a beautiful design, planning permission and building regulations. Our building works start mid-May 2018. A great personalised service, hugely recommended.

From our initial thoughts of whether to extend or new build, to design and finally obtaining planning permission Konstantina was always on hand to offer advice and guidance in a professional and knowledgeable way. We would recommend her services to anyone and look forward to seeing her design becoming a reality.

Throughout the project she has been hands on with advice and support. Have already recommended to a good friend.
