About us
“I’ve designed a business where I could truly focus on what matters to a small roster of clients. This is all about spending the time to get to know you, enjoying design workshops, playing around with ideas, and finally delivering a design that exceeds expectations.
There are no surprises, we deliver all of our design work in stages utilising the latest 3D visual software and AI. Zofia and I help as guides to your decision-making from start to finish.”
ZAHRADA is led by Tim Willment, an ARB-registered Architect. He is supported by his wife Zofia, an Architectural & BIID-registered Interior Designer. She compliments Tim’s skillset, working together on both architectural and interior design ensuring cohesive design proposals.
Together they have been working on many different project types, such as healthcare, private housing, listed buildings and commercial-to-residential developments.
A SMALL DESIGN STUDIO
Why work with us?
We’ve had the privilege of working with families like yours, helping them turn their houses into homes filled with warmth and character.
We have a particular fondness for breathing new life into old and forgotten spaces, giving them a “glow up” that respects their history while adding a fresh, modern twist.
Our work takes us around the globe, and we cherish the opportunities to explore different cultures, architectural styles, and design traditions from every corner of the world. Travelling not only fuels out creativity but also enriches our understanding of how design can fit into the unique context of each place we visit.
We are inspired by classic and timeless styles, valuing the beauty of simpler, honest materials that stand the test of time. We believe that design about more than just aesthetics; it’s about creating spaces that resonate with their surroundings.
We love the play of shadows and how they bring out intricate details, adding depth and dimension to your designs.
For us, every project is a story waiting to be told – a story is history, culture and the people who inhabit the space. Whether we’re working on a cozy family home, or a larger project across the seas, our goal is always the same: to create designs that are authentic, meaningful and perfectly suited to the lives they will enhance.
WORKING IN THE UK + GLOBALLY.
See your design before it’s built.
We embrace the latest technology and AI tools. These cutting-edge resources allow us to visualise the final results before they come to life, giving you a clear and realistic preview of your project.
By seeing how light interacts with spaces and how materials will look in different conditions, we can make informed decisions and refine our designs to better meet your needs.
This approach not only enhances our creativity but also provides you with peace of mind, knowing that what you see is what you’ll get.
We believe in the power of shadows, and how they can bring out intricate details, adding depth and dimension to every space. Playing with sunlight and shadows is one of our favourite aspects of design, as it allows us to create dynamic environments that change with the time of day and the seasons.
Our Clients say it best:
Tim and the team are brilliant designers with a keen eye for detail. With extensive experience in residential design, I wouldn’t hesitate to appoint them for any project.

Tim transformed our bungalow into a multi-generational home with separate units. His clever design maximised our space and considered future needs, which helped secure approval from the New Forest National Park Authority. With skillful negotiation and detailed drawings, he guided us smoothly through the process. We’d be delighted to work with Tim again.
Dan P
Tim was fantastic throughout our project, guiding us through the planning process in a conservation area. His drawings and heritage statement made the application easy, and he was always available during construction. We highly recommend Tim for his historic building expertise and found him very easy to work with.
