Jules & Alex
This entrepreneurial duo made a name for themselves when they sold their first business - Hassle.com - in 2015. However, despite earning MBEs for their contribution to the tech industry, these two best friends weren’t done making waves in the scene.
Looking for a new challenge, the pair were inspired when a nightmare extension left them wondering if the architectural industry couldn’t do with a makeover too.
In 2016
Our co-founder, Alex Depledge, wanted to add a simple side return extension to her home. Three months later, she found herself £2,500 lighter with nothing on paper.
Thousands of homeowners and developers all over the UK are facing this same struggle. Having never used an architect before, they are left baffled by confusing prices and processes that seem to yield little or no result. Because of this, some choose to avoid architects altogether, leaving them vulnerable to cowboy design and build companies.
Seeing an opportunity to change things, Alex enlisted Jules to help come up with a solution. Together, they envisioned a new way of doing things. A platform that would open up affordable, fast, high-quality architectural services for every UK home.
Nick & Rich
This opposing pair had spent over 10 years running a successful residential architectural practice and were brought in by Alex to help complete her home redesign project after her initial project disappointment.
Meeting Jules and Alex, Rich and Nick felt they could complete the perfect crossover team, bringing together industry knowledge and the ability to use technology to simplify the process. Combining their expertise, our four founders created Resi - an architectural platform designed for everyday homeowners.
No more confusing jargon. No hidden fees. No more delays.
And how we’ve grown since!
Resi may have started with Alex, Jules, Rich and Nick, but it has quickly grown to a larger band of hardworking talented professionals based in Vauxhall, London.
The team covers all aspects of the business from design, engineering, marketing, customer service, finance and, of course, architecture. Together we believe that everyone deserves to create their own happy space. What our founders started, our ever-growing team helps expand.
