I want your architectural experience to be exciting and productive. By working together we will design the ideal scheme to exceed your expectations. I will guide you through the process and explore the possibility of incorporating sustainability into the design in order to maximise energy efficiencies.

During this time I have worked on many successful projects including: spa complexes, sports centres, pubs and restaurants, factories, Sure Start centre, churches and schools.
