About the practice

MEB Design Ltd is a lively and imaginative medium-sized architectural practice with good experience in several specialist areas including education, churches, theatres / arts, healthcare and leisure together with some residential, commercial, retail and industrial work. This diversity has led to a further speciality, namely working with Historic buildings on sensitive sites or in Conservation Areas. The practice has also found that experience in one field of design benefits another, and that a broad range of project types is beneficial in enabling us to bring fresh perspectives to particular problems. We seek interesting and imaginative design solutions of quality and have had recognition of this through a number of architectural awards. At MEB Design Ltd we are careful to listen to what our clients want and not to impose solutions. We spend a great deal of time with our clients at Feasibility Study, Strategic Plan and Sketch Design stages, talking through all aspects of their requirements. This ensures that we produce the buildings that our clients want. We operate in a very consultative way, which includes with the Local Authorities, building users, local stakeholders and through to the building contractors. We do not design to a “house style”. We respond to each design problem on its own merits and consider all the limitations that each situation imposes. However, we strive to produce buildings of quality that are relevant to their potential life and use, and to the aspirations of our clients.
