David Weatherhead

My passion is architecture. I love defining space and creating places that have appositive impact on our environment.
Having spent over 10 years working for a large design studio in the city I have set up my own practice to focus on a range of projects that make peoples lives better.

I am passionate about the environment and how architecture can play an important role in the environmental regeneration of an area. Being considerate to the planet on which we live is inherently important to the way I live and the way I design. Im a firm believer that the most environmentally friendly building is the one that didn’t need to be built.

I focus primarily within 3 sectors healthcare, education residential. I believe that the right environment can help us heal, make us engaged to learn and make our lives more enjoyable. This to me is the power of design.

Starting with a series of residential projects in Sweden, I find that I am fascinated by how a well designed house can have a positive impact on people and how ultimately this house can become a home. Im very interested in new technologies and emerging materials. I believe within my lifetime a material will be engineered that will change the way in which architecture is created, and one that is ultimately kind to the earth.
