People
Swish Architecture was founded by Dino Labbate in 2010. Dino has a diverse and extensive portfolio of experience, starting his profession within the leisure industry, designing leisure centres, swimming pool halls, and other sports venues.
He then went on to master the residential and housing sector, designing high end new builds, multi-story apartment buildings, student accommodation and small scale residential extensions.
Dino regularly takes on development projects houses with his wife Aimee, so he understands the stresses and worries that his clients will go through. With the help of his team at Swish they make sure that the design, planning and construction process are enjoyable and stress free.

Testimonials
We design in collaboration with our clients to create beautiful, high quality and unique schemes that surpass expectations every time. Don't believe us? Please see below what our valued clients have to say about us.
- Mr and Mrs Fuller
“Dino’s sense of design, knowledge and vision were imperative to the success of our project. His relationship with us and our builder, his flexibility and willingness to listen, and his attention to detail were key to how well our project progressed. Dino came highly recommended to us and in turn we have recommended him to our friends.
He has both a keen artistic sense and a practical, functional approach to design. We came to him with unformed ideas and he was able to guide us.
His ability to be creative within the limits of our site and budget made the most of the opportunity for us to improve our family home, which we have no doubt will be better suited to fit the needs of our growing family.”
Mr Briggs-Price
“I was introduced to Dino over a year ago and have used his services many times since. I found him to be confident and experienced in many fields of his profession, ranging small loft conversions to large new builds and property renovation.
As a builder I have recommended him to many customers who required planning and/or help with a design and the feedback I receive is always excellent. In some cases I have contacted Dino for advice on matters of which I was unsure and he has provided me with the answers very quickly and is always a great help.
I am sure I will continue to work with Dino for many years to come.”
Mr Lindsey
"In March 2016 I commissioned Dino at Swish Architecture to draw up plans for a single storey rear extension at my property in West Bridgford.
I was extremely impressed both by the interesting design proposals he put forward, and also by the quick response which allowed us to submit the proposals to Planning without delay. Dino liaised with Rushcliffe BC Planning Team and dealt effectively with any queries on the design. He also provided me with several useful contacts to use during the building work.
The build is now nearing completion and looking very impressive. I have no hesitation in recommending Dino, and hope to work with him again on my next project."
The Grange
"Having used Swish before on a previous project, and being knowing the high quality of work, we didn’t hesitate to pick up the phone to Dino when we were thinking about starting our new project.
Having just had our first child, we were concerned about the how the design and the build would impact on him. However swish were able to help us design a fantastic space internal and external space for our little one to stay safe in while he ran around. While also understanding our concerns about undertaking a building project with such a young child.
Swish’s extensive experience in turning a design into a building really shows through in the construction stage. Dino was able to help us find trades and materials that would bring Swish’s fantastic design to life. Such as the cooper cladding and rain pipes that surround the new section of our build.”
Stanford Road
Having used Swish consistently over the past 6 years for all my architectural work this project is another great example of their design flair and commitment to quality.
The design process is simple and hassle free with an initial site visit to discussed the initial design, followed by consultation where we developed the design, making sure that it fits with my business plan and wider portfolio.
Dino and the team consistently consider my tenants needs while my understanding my own commercial requirements. Their designs have kept to budgets while squeezing the most out of the design to ensure that my properties are both comfortable to live in and economic to maintain.

"Dino and the team have been fantastic on all my projects; as a landlord I have many properties that I have developed and regardless of the scale or budget Swish have delivered a fantastic scheme. This Project was particularly demanding, however swish were able to balance the planner’s requirements with my own and develop a scheme that we were all happy with.
As a landlord himself Dino is able to use his experience to further the design and maximise the potential of my property’s. I expect I will continue to use swish for many years to come."
