PWA are a dynamic RIBA chartered practice, passionate about exceptional design and conservation.
Our ambitious architectural culture is complemented by practicality and versatility.
We have a strong sense of responsibility to our clients but are prepared to challenge the expected.
We are dedicated, sensitive and original.
Our Approach
We place our clients at the heart of every project, working closely with them to ensure that their vision and needs are fully integrated into the design process. From initial concept to final build, our focus is on delivering spaces that enhance how our clients live, work, and interact with their environment. Collaboration and communication are key to how we work—listening, adapting, and shaping each design to perfectly reflect the desires and lifestyle of those we serve.
We pride ourselves on our attention to detail, selecting high-quality materials and construction methods to create spaces that are built to last. Each project is a reflection of our commitment to craftsmanship, with a focus on enduring beauty and functionality. Our goal is to design architecture that not only stands the test of time but enriches the lives of those who experience it.
Sectors
- Residential Architecture: From modern new builds to heritage restorations, we create homes that are functional, beautiful, and responsive to the needs of their occupants.
- Commercial Projects: Whether designing cultural & leisure, retail spaces, or public buildings, we craft commercial environments that are visually striking and optimised for productivity, customer engagement, and public interaction.
- Heritage and Conservation: Our expertise in heritage and conservation projects allows us to breathe new life into historic buildings, balancing the need to preserve their legacy while introducing modern functionality. We respect the past while ensuring these spaces remain relevant for future generations.
- Development Residential: We collaborate closely with developers on residential projects, delivering innovative designs that enhance property value and appeal. Our approach focuses on creating spaces that stand out in the market, meet regulatory requirements, and exceed the expectations of both developers and end-users.
- Feasibility and Value Creation: We excel in evaluating the potential of underused or challenging spaces, transforming them into valuable assets. Our expertise includes conducting feasibility studies, optimizing spatial layouts, and devising creative solutions that unlock hidden value and maximize the utility of every project.
Our Philosophy
Our design philosophy is eclectic and adaptive, allowing us to draw from a variety of architectural styles and influences. Rather than enforcing a specific design style, we believe that the context should shape the architecture. Every project we undertake is uniquely influenced by its surroundings, history, and the individual needs of our clients, ensuring a seamless integration between the building and its environment.
Who We Work With
Our clients include developers, community groups, public institutions, and ecclesiastical organizations. We are experienced in delivering thoughtful, high-quality architectural solutions that meet the diverse needs of these sectors, from sensitive heritage restorations to innovative modern designs.
