We have designed successful projects ranging from private houses, residential conversions, exhibitions and furniture, restaurants and office designs.

We are pragmatic modernists ensuring the design follows the way the building functions with their surroundings and context. We listen to our client’s requirements, carry out any research and consultation and draw up a brief at the start, advising on budget and timescale. We investigate appropriate sustainable materials and technology for each project and strike a close relationship with our clients in order to discuss the design and deliver what the client wants.

We carry out the full range of architectural services from initial space planning sketches and cost advice to planning applications design development, building regulation submission drawings and information for construction to carrying our site project management. We break our fees down into clear fee packages which set out the costs of the various services we provide.

We are happy to make an initial meeting to discuss your project.
