I have used the services of JLS Design on many occasions. We first worked together on a number of commercial projects in the hospitality sector and later, on the design and build of my family home. The unique experience that they gained in designing Superyachts, which demands the best utilization of available space – internal and external, has enabled them to be innovative in their approach to the many aspects of bespoke design. I am happy to endorse JLS Design to anyone contemplating a new build or an extension to their existing home. Their experience, commitment and attention to detail will make the design journey a rich and rewarding one.Read More

Rob Jacob of JLS Design took on a tricky project, in that plans of the existing house had to be drawn up, plans for the new development drawn up, the necessary planning permission sought and the services of a structural engineer utilised for the base platform and steel work to be used. Rob not only gained all the necessary planning permission but also co-ordinated the project in conjunction with the structural engineer, welders and builder I had selected, the end result is stunning and has added tens of thousands onto the value of the house and completely transformed it for me to another dimension of living. The project consisted of a large first floor balcony and spiral staircase leading to a new tiled patio beneath. The project has added around 32m2 of new outdoor usable space to the house. Throughout the whole process Rob was easily contactable and enthusiastic regards the outcome and was great to work with. I believe his professional presentation to the planning dept helped greatly in gaining approval for the project.Read More
