Founder I Architect I Maker

​

ARB I RIBA I Parnham

​

Ben’s knowledge of materials and his ability to design and craft anything from bespoke furniture through to experimental building projects, defines his approach to architecture.

​

He originally trained at the renowned Parham College, established by furniture designer and maker John Makepeace. After a number of years of projects ever increasing in their ambition, Ben decided to pursue formal architectural training. 

 

His maker-skills combined with an innate ability to turn a problem into an opportunity, has over time culminated in a rich and varied portfolio of work. He thrives on collaborations that involve pushing the limits of traditional craft by applying technology and a cutting edge to the everyday. Re-establishing New British Design as an architectural practice has been an exciting progression for Ben, and one that has enabled the studio to jump scales and become ever more ambitious.
