Haven't thought of a decent pseudonym, so our new architectural designer will just have to stay as the Architectural Designer. If things don't go as badly tits up as they have with Knott then he'll get his credit at the end. If there ever is an end.
But, several days after it happened, have to report a decent meeting with him. He didn't laugh when we showed him our pans and cardboard model. He thought some degree of iteration of the plans until the client is happy was standard practice. He's happy to QA and improve upon our basic design, and didn't try the 'you mere mortals couldn't possibly even attempt what we do' line. He's even sent through written terms, which Knott never did. All for £3,500, which would have been a couple of redrawings from Knott's minions.
The only slightly shaky moment was when he showed us his portfolio including something Georgian that "wasn't a pastiche". The only conclusion that we can draw is that he has a time machine...
