North London
The boutique practices and period streets of the northern boroughs, where residential work and conservation craft dominate, and who is hiring.
Knowledge
Working in north London.
North London is residential heartland. The period terraces of Islington, the villas of the northern heights and the mews streets in between support a deep bench of boutique practices working on extensions, refurbishments and one-off houses.
Much of the area is conservation territory, so the work rewards designers who enjoy detail, negotiation and the craft of altering old buildings well.
For careers, this is where many assistants cut their teeth on real projects quickly, because small practices give early responsibility. This hub gathers who is hiring across the northern boroughs.
