Business Details
We established John Pardey Architects in 1988, giving us over three decades of architectural experience. Our roots lie in Modern Conservation, which informs our specialised approach to contemporary architecture. We focus on designing bespoke homes and small to mediumscale housing schemes that respond to their context. Our practice routinely takes on ambitious, constrained or complex sites, including exceptional countryside homes under Paragraph 84. We have delivered multiple projects in floodplain locations, demonstrating our problemsolving capabilities. Our work is recognised nationally, having won over sixty awards, including nine RIBA awards and two Housing Design Awards.
We have been shortlisted for prestigious accolades such as the Neave Brown Award for housing and the Gold Medal for Architecture in Wales. We believe great homes emerge from understanding and shaping spaces around the way people live. Our commitment to clientcentred collaboration ensures every scheme is joyful, timeless and distinctly responsive. We maintain close relationships with clients and consultants, applying a holistic approach to refine every detail. This dedication enhances wellbeing, elevates everyday living and creates architecture that stands the test of time.
