Approach & Biography

Architect or client? It’s about you the client!

  • I listen carefully to your briefing to understand cost limits, functional needs & priorities. So starts our path to your tailored solution. A clear design process leads us there.

  • Your ideas can be the best. So I’d help you realise them. But I also test them. By suggesting alternatives to give you choice.

  • We work together, step by step. Therefore you control the pace of progress.

  • Your project can reduce carbon emissions & energy bills. So I advise on technologies and relevant legislation. The design can be to Passivhaus+ standard.

  • Your property is an asset. So I design within budget. To preserve and add value.

  • I create & lead the design team of professionals needed. For example a structural engineer. Whose work I co-ordinate into one cohesive design.

  • I can help you protect your family or employees, and your property. Achieved by designing compliantly with the law.

  • Dealing with builders to get a fair price and acceptable quality? That’s challenging! I’m here to help you. By taking care of all commercial & legal procedures.

Balance

My success is based on managing balance. Between my capacity and the number of projects at any one time. Ensuring a reliable service to all.

I have design, communication and management capabilities from forty years’ practise. On many building types and project scales. From the refined residential and small commercial designs I do today. To schools, offices, police and university facilities in the past.

I live and work in Macclesfield. Working effectively throughout the northwest. I travel widely. Because it’s important to maintain and increase design vocabulary. As shown in my Instagram feed @macclesfieldarchitects .
