“ Lara has the ability to see a problem and find a practical and yet beautiful solution: a rare talent in any designer. She is refreshingly without the arrogance that I find so many designers have, and seamlessly moves between inspired design to the practicalities of dealing with planning controls and builders on site.”

“ As an artist myself I always seek out rare and original talent.. After struggling to acquire planning information about the site I had chosen, it was a relief to finally have someone with Ms. Hood Napier's significant architectural knowledge involved in our process. She managed the planning issues and delivered a design for a difficult sloping site which was, quite simply, exceptional. Ms. Hood Napier is a rare and brilliant talent whose work speaks for itself. She delivers unique creativity underpinned by sound business acumen with unwavering integrity ”
