Julian Cowie Architects

Julian Cowie Architects is a London based architecture studio founded in 1996. The practice has experience working on a range of residential, commercial and civic projects providing full architectural, interior design and masterplanning services for both public and private sectors. Our range of completed projects includes hotels, private houses, residential developments, offices, retail, transport and the extension and conversion of historic buildings. Although we work on a range of large projects, we are a small studio of five dedicated architects and we pride ourselves on offering a personal service, working with many homeowners on smaller scale residential homes also. The work of our studio has won critical acclaim and professional recognition winning several national and international design competitions. Our built projects have also been published widely in the architectural, lifestyle and broadsheet press, as outlined below. Our design is based on a consistent approach rather than a particular style with each scheme a unique response to site, context and our clients brief. We aim to achieve simple, elegant and practical solutions through intensive discussion with our clients and consultant team. Many of our projects involve the insertion of new uses within complicated urban sites and often have difficult planning histories. We pride ourselves on creating an imaginative and sensitive architectural response which is borne out in our success in achieving planning consent and the quality of our built work.
