Rural Studio Architecture

At Rural Studio, we're passionate about designing incredible spaces to live and work. As a RIBA accredited Architect practice located in County Down, Northern Ireland, we take a collaborative approach to design, listening to your ideas to create stunning spaces that work for you.

Our team, led by Principal Architect Robin Parsons, has a wealth of experience across a broad range of project types and values. With a creative desire and practical understanding of the construction process, we seek to offer unique solutions that respond to their context. We believe in good design that delivers great value for money, regardless of project size, budget, or location.

Our Approach

We're happy to listen to you and discuss ideas before preparing a quotation. These early conversations are free and without obligation, giving you the chance to gain an understanding of how we can help, timescales, and the opportunity to ask questions. Our approach is centered around working closely with you to understand your needs and create bespoke designs that exceed your expectations.
