Business Details
We established our director-only practice in 2003 to deliver bespoke architectural projects for selected clients across diverse sectors. Our team combines extensive planning expertise with a tailored creative approach for every commission we undertake. We maintain a high success rate securing planning permissions, listed building consents and appeals, often succeeding where others have failed. Our portfolio spans prestigious London addresses including Mayfair, Knightsbridge, Holland Park and Chiswick alongside country estates in Ireland. We served as Alexander McQueen's personal architect for many years until his passing in 2010, overseeing his Mayfair residence transformation. Our work encompasses basement excavations, rear and side extensions, loft conversions and comprehensive interior reconfigurations.
We specialise in sensitive restoration of historically significant properties, exemplified by our work on the 1859 Felix Duban lodge at Orleans Lodge. Our practice manages the full project lifecycle from initial concept through to physical delivery of beautifully crafted spaces. We operate from our own restored riverside property in Twickenham, demonstrating our commitment to architectural excellence. Our director-led structure ensures consistent expertise and personal attention throughout every project phase. We pride ourselves on splitting complex proposals into strategic multiple applications to maximise approval success rates. Our clients benefit from two decades of experience navigating London's stringent planning environment with proven results.
