‘I set up my own practice in January 2008. Based in the Cotswolds the aim is to provide high quality Conservation, Restoration and Sustainable Architectural design and a personal service to my clients. I obtained AABC accreditation in 2005, www.aabc-register.co.uk and I am a member of the RIBA chartered Practice. T
o become a Chartered Practice, architect practices need to comply with strict criteria in an accreditation scheme that gives you, the client, a mark of quality. So by choosing a RIBA Chartered Practice you can expect a certain level of excellence in design and service. I like to use traditional and new materials in both traditional and contemporary design alongside my interest in sustainability and low carbon building solutions to make buildings more future-proof.‘

‘Young London and Surrey based architecture practice. Formed by Lee in 2018, the practice focuses on domestic architecture working with private clients, house builders and property developers. Our approach is to listen to and understand the clients’ needs and aspirations which is fundamental to the design process.
Each home can be viewed differently with every client having a different brief. We look at every project with a fresh approach and every project has time invested to create something unique and purposeful. We work hard to invest time in carefully considered designs and work collaboratively with our clients using various mediums to communicate our ideas.‘
