OUR TEAM
Lee Ferris
Founder & Director
My passion has always been architecture. I have 20+ years experience of designing and delivering innovative buildings of varying scales and complexities. I love the challenge of finding new and creative solutions across a range of sectors by producing contextually driven buildings that reflect the Clients brief and budget, and positively enhance their surroundings and the user experience.
Damien Cadman
Senior Architect
10+ years in practice has provided me with a wealth of experience across a wide range of sectors from Domestic right through to Custodial and Defence, so no scheme is too big or too small. And whilst I love a blank canvas that provides the opportunity to get my teeth into something shiny and new, I also really enjoy the challenges associated with bringing something old and neglected back into use.
