Feilden+Mawson is a leading architectural practice in the AJ top 100 with an established reputation in heritage and new build across the commercial and public sectors.
Founded over five decades ago, the practice has offices in London, Norwich, Cambridge and Prague. Particular strengths include introducing contemporary design into urban settings in a sensitive and innovative way.
Expertise in masterplanning, regeneration and new build in sectors as diverse as education, government and housing has earned us international acclaim and dozens of awards.
Formed in 1956 by Bernard Feilden and David Mawson, the practice has developed an architectural philosophy based on a contemporary approach to the design of new buildings, whilst respecting their context, combined with the knowledge and skills acquired through the conservation of historic buildings and their environment. These principles have been supported with a strong business ethic, based on the pursuit of excellence and integrity in professional relations.
The practice has been able to grow and compete in a changing economic climate over the past 50 years, by anticipating and adapting to the changes in technical and business practice. We continually re-evaluate the skills and knowledge required to respond to clients’ requirements and introduce appropriate areas of strength and expertise within the practice.
An overriding concern for the impact of design and construction on the built environment has led to the development of strong sustainable design principles and skills which are applied to all projects.
The changing roles of the architect within the construction industry and new procurement methods resulted in the creation of project management and interior design services within the practice, which generate new areas of professional expertise and consultation whilst supporting and strengthening our existing work profile.
Feilden+Mawson has always taken a holistic view of practice and employment. We see this as a way of contributing to an improving environment for clients and the broader public, whilst also creating a working ethos which thrives on a blend of youthful vigour and fresh thinking, balanced by experience.
