Benjamin Somerville's Company Details
Bossley Architects is an architectural and interior design practice with the express purpose of providing intense input into a deliberately limited number of projects. The practice is based on the belief that innovative yet practical design is essential for the production of good buildings, we design buildings which evoke sensations and meanings arising from their location, culture and history, by being part of their place and time, without falling back on nostalgia. We look beyond the immediate project to embrace wider social and environmental issues, and believe the best buildings spring from an open collaboration between architect, client and consultants, and have designed a wide range of projects including commercial, institutional and residential, and have amassed special expertise in the field of art galleries, museums and residential projects. Whilst being very much design focused, the practice has an overriding interest in the pragmatics and feasibility of construction. There is considerable hands-on building experience amongst the personnel, and buildings are carefully detailed with construction methods in mind. We regard each project as a new possibility requiring unique architectural expression. Our uncompromising attitude towards design quality has led to numerous award-winning projects. Our aim is to design buildings which lift the spirits, which offer pleasure and excitement. Our practice has a wide range of experience and skills, with projects in the following key areas · Arts and Culture · Commercial and Retail · Residential · Education · Public buildings · Exhibition Design · Urban Design and Planning · Interior Design · Furniture Design
