In their words
Ackroyd Lowrie is a London architecture practice led by Jon Ackroyd and Oliver Lowrie. The practice describes its establishment in 2016, with a focus on residential, commercial and education projects, urban regeneration and masterplanning.
Services span concept and feasibility studies, interiors, technical design and delivery. The team uses virtual reality, models, drawings and early stakeholder engagement to test proposals and communicate design decisions, with retrofit and reuse forming part of its approach.

Culture
The practice describes a studio that takes work-life balance seriously. Its careers page sets out a capped, paid overtime policy, while acknowledging that some projects occasionally require additional hours. That is a published account of the practice's approach, not a guarantee of the terms of an individual role. Applicants should confirm the current arrangements during recruitment.

People and early engagement underpin the practice's stated approach. It uses design and visualisation to test ideas, improve understanding and explore how a proposal can contribute to its wider neighbourhood.
