The practice was formed in 1980. The aim then, as now, was to create a soundly managed architectural and design practice with a reputation for high quality work. We do not believe in a dogmatic approach; rather we strive to find appropriate solutions based on careful analysis and working closely with our clients, whose interest and commitment is fundamental to every project. We offer objective advice which focuses on the client's needs rather than our own aspirations.
 
Over the years our skills and experience have expanded into a wide range of activities including architecture, interior design, space planning, space audits, urban design, master-planning, graphic design, project management, historic building conservation and planning consultancy. Our production work is fully computerised and we now have the experience and associations to operate in virtually any part of the world.
