Text reading "We are / Architects" in a bold font.
Group of people walking on a paved path next to a building and green garden area.

We are a studio with a diverse portfolio of work across several sectors. Our reputation for high-quality design is illustrated through our built schemes, high-profile competition wins, awards and features in publications and exhibitions.

Our approach is underpinned by our commitment to people and the communities we serve. It is complemented by a fundamental understanding of the technical, financial, and practical realities, ensuring our designs are viable, deliverable, and, most importantly, desirable. As a practice, we have a strong moral and social purpose that is translated by using our skills as architects to make a tangible, positive impact on people’s quality of life.

We aim to contribute to the social and built realm by creating / uplifting places, / building for the future, and by / respecting our communities, collaborators, and the environment. 

We are Bell Phillips.
