ABW Architects

Our Approach: We aim to make places where people want to be. The design of buildings is often about resolving conflicting issues but also about looking for and taking advantage of opportunities that already exist. To do this we need to have a detailed understanding of the brief and also see the potential of a site or existing building. Buildings need to be places that are enjoyable and contribute to a quality of life. They need to be accessible, not just physically but also in terms of being inviting, whilst also providing privacy and quietness. Buildings should respond to a site and contribute to the environment around them, the spaces between buildings are just as important as the buildings themselves. Whilst all projects are different, site, function, client and budgets vary enormously, our objective ensure that we can bring integrity, ingenuity, practicality, functionality and hopefully delight to the scheme, whilst complying with budget and programme. To do this it is imperative to talk and develop openness and trust between everyone that is involved with the project.
