About the practice

'Better by Design', our philosophy sounds simple, but has implications in all that we do. We aim to consider all aspects of a project, and formulate a response that considers of all these factors so that we can arrive at the optimum solution for that particular context; we are not driven by a particular aesthetic or commercial goal. We recognise that sustainability is found in a balance between social, environmental and economic factors, and that cost is only one element of value. Our philosophy may be simple, but in applying it to the individual context of our projects we arrive at solutions which are as individual as their influences. We work across a range of sectors from housing and retail to offices and industrial. New build, refurbishment and conservation. We are also able to offer a range of specialist consultancy services including, Party Wall Surveyor, energy assessment for new build homes (SAP and EPC) and housing standards advice.
