Proctor & Matthews

We are an award winning practice of architects, masterplanners, urban designers, place makers, problem solvers, researchers, artists and visualisers. We have over 30 years experience with an international portfolio that stretches across a broad range of sectors. Our approach is underpinned by an overarching commitment to imaginative design that responds to the specific cultural and social contexts of each project. We design places that are adaptable to change in order to create sustainable environments with both present and future needs in mind. We understand that collaboration achieved through a process of open communication and sharing of information is key to the success of every project no matter how large or small. A well organised and structured yet fluid process allows for input from the wider design team at any point during design development. As a practice we constantly push ourselves to improve our own methods of working. Not only do we consistently self-review our own processes, but also strongly support the continued professional development of each of our staff. We deliver our projects using BIM enabled software and continually update our quality control procedures to ensure we are up to date with industry best practice and standards. Each of our projects is reinforced by our own continuous research in analysing and understanding historical contexts, emerging social patterns and sustainable technologies. Our practice has contributed towards many exhibitions and conferences both locally and internationally, as well as design advisory panels and university teaching appointments worldwide.
