Introduction

Founded in 1994 the practice has designed award winning new buildings, interiors and refurbishments of existing buildings from £0.25m to £15m across a wide range of projects – residential, health facilities, special collection archives, galleries, community buildings, study and education centre’s, libraries, offices, performance spaces, retail, visitor centre’s, and restaurants. We bring strong experience of achieving challenging planning approvals integrating within sensitive townscapes and landscapes including World Heritage sites, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Conservation Areas and contemporary extensions to historic listed buildings. Current projects include a walk in health centre, a new 40,000 ft2 central London office building, a residence on the Thames and a trauma resource centre and recently urban design and master plan studies.
