Practice profile
In 2018 the practice moved into its current studio on New Broadway in West Worthing. From here, we deliver a full range of architectural services including feasibility studies, concept design, planning submissions, building regulations packages and construction related services.
Our approach is client-focussed and unpretentious. We are not driven by ego, but instead by a desire to help clients and end users realise their aspirations for a project, whatever the size.
For us, good design is about creative solutions, attention to detail, sustainable approaches and ensuring the project makes a positive contribution to its context. This applies to all our projects, from a small-scale domestic extension to a large commercial development, from a refurbishment to a bespoke new build. Good design should be available to all.
We are a RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects) chartered practice, and both directors are ARB (Architects Registration Board) registered. This means that you can expect a high standard of professionalism and can rest assured that we are regulated by an independent statutory body, having undertaken the education, training and experience required to be able to join the register.
