About us
We’re a group of people who think differently, and think bigger.
We believe real creativity isn’t just about ‘great design’ or ‘architectural principles’ – its about intelligent thinking that solves problems, innovates, challenges assumptions, imagines and explores.
Our Approach
Associated Architects deliver the perfect balance between ‘wow’ design and workability, each individual detail being conceived from a sense of purpose and human need, over design kudos.
Specialisms
Whilst we are experts in many sectors and building types, we also have key specialist skills that, like threads, run through all of our project work.
Services
Associated Architects is a practice that combines years of experience with the drive and enthusiasm of youth.
