GLEN THOMAS ARCHITECTURE consciously pushes against the boundaries of conventional creative design. It is a fundamental ethos of the practice, that the process of building should always be an explorative, progressive and enriching experience for BOTH the designer and the client, taking inspiration directly from context rather than 'fashion', that then gives birth to a solution beyond the confines of the building itself.
The emphasis of each and every scheme is to develop a unique, contemporary design solution with the client, exacerbating all options until a collective and extraordinary proposal is reached. Beautiful design should be achievable as a solution to all project challenges.
By listening to clients specific requirements and aspirations and thoroughly exploring each potential simple or radical avenue, our practice strives to deliver a sense of place for the inhabitants that exceeds all expectations.
