Welcome
New British Design is an award winning RIBA Chartered Architectural Practice based near Exeter in Devon, with a portfolio of work that stretches across the UK and further afield.
We are a team of like-minded people who care about creating great spaces and the objects that furnish them. With a background firmly rooted in furniture, product design and interiors we always aim to deliver a crafted and hands-on approach.
The practice strives to create architecture informed by a longstanding passion for design and making.
About Us
Our approach has been refined over time by a rich mix of things. From years of formal training and professional experience through to passion projects and collaborative work. All these have culminated in the mix we bring to our architecture. Craftsmanship, materials, problem-solving design, building and interiors are all part of who we are. Over the years we’ve not shied away from rolling up our sleeves. The discipline of being on site or in the workshop has taught us much that sitting behind a computer could not. A hand-crafted, hands-on approach has enabled us to learn and apply what really works.
Our portfolio includes projects from the private, public and commercial sectors. We hope it communicates well to you our belief that when progressive design is fused with age old craft, some of the best ideas emerge. Together with a careful consideration of context and local materials, we strive to create buildings that settle well into their environments too. With our unique experience on-site including a number of self-build projects, we also apply a strong understanding of the financial constraints and our client's business case to our architectural services, and will work hard to make the most of any budget.
