Architecture and interiors for the way you live
Gareth Allison Design is an independent architectural practice creating new homes, transforming existing buildings and exploring the potential of sites.
Established in 2012, the practice combines creative thinking, technical understanding and over 20 years of architectural experience.
We believe good design should do more than look beautiful. It should make life better, bringing together the way a space looks, feels and functions, with the practical understanding needed to make it happen.
Seeing things differently
Every project begins with an opportunity to make something better.
You may know exactly what you want, or simply feel that something could work differently.
We listen, investigate the possibilities and test ideas against what matters most: the way you want to live, the ambitions of the project and the available budget.
Sometimes the answer is surprisingly simple. Sometimes it calls for something much more ambitious. Either way, our approach helps you understand the options and make confident, informed decisions.
