Ben Cunliffe Architects Ltd

Ben Cunliffe Architects, based in the Lake District National Park, designs innovative, elegant, sustainable architecture. Established in 2001, the company has brought together talented architects and designers who endeavour to make design and construction an enjoyable and exciting experience for clients. Ben Cunliffe Architects are extremely environmentally conscious and fully aware of the Carbon Footprint building can create. Where possible, we aim to minimise this by using local materials and trades, in addition to sourcing products that are manufactured in the most environmentally friendly manner possible. Cumbrian slate stone and larch frequently appear in our designs. Ben Cunliffe Architects have been at the forefront of incorporating renewable technology and energy conservation in their designs. A thorough understanding of projects' environmental context achieves architectural solutions that source energy from their surroundings. Strategic architectural designs that permit passive solar gain and natural ventilation into the building and incorporating contextually appropriate renewable technologies is encouraged from Solar Panels, Ground Source and Air Source Heat Pumps, Biomass Plants and Rainwater Harvesting.
