architects are not here to have ideas bounced off them and give free advice.
Apologies if it sounds abrupt but that profession really suffers from a wrongful appreciation of their role and skills
Glws-
Perhaps you added 'free' where it wasn't intended...
-
If your paying for there services i dont see any issues with bouncing ideas off plus I struggle to find an architect willing to do anything for free.
-
I wasn’t suggesting free advice.
Engage their services, and have the architects design an extension based on your plans and ideas? With input from both client and the professional?At least when we engaged our architect, he listened to what we wanted, what was possible, gave opinions, and we discussed and changed the design somewhat after his preliminary design?
-
Is it not reasonable to have a discussion with an architect about what they might be able to do, preliminary ideas etc. Before you formally engage them?
Not asking to sound argumentative - but am considering doing this soon and would like to understand if my expectations are way off.

If you want someone to bounce some ideas off and get advice on best use of land, then definitely an architect.
Also kitchens and associated work costs loads of money.
