Interior Design, from the delicate, sumptuous and exclusive to some of the largest and most complex internal spaces in the world. Our experience is as broad as it is varied.Master Planning and Urban DesignWhether it’s a boutique retail development, the regeneration of a town centre or the creation of a new city quarter, the task demands a careful balance of skills: commercial understanding; creativity; practical knowledge of a range of building types; and sensitivity to context. We combine these with experience on some of the world’s most successful urban developments, to help you create outstanding and profitable projects with a strong sense of place.ArchitectureWhat makes great architecture? It’s a combination of understanding and inspiration: the careful balancing and resolution of a myriad of often competing issues.    We listen intently to our client’s needs, research the project context and work closely with local groups, filtering all of the information through our collective experience and knowledge, then use our creativity to weave a solution which is attractive, popular, practical, viable and sustainableInterior DesignIf architecture is the art of the public environment, interior design is where we can speak most directly and personally to the individual.    It’s inside our buildings – grand or intimate – where decisions on spaces, materials and lighting can influence our visitors’ moods and actions, creating atmosphere and character, and making it somewhere they’ll want to visit again and again.ConsultancyBuying a property, or deciding to implement a building project, is a major commitment. It’s important to be sure that it will work well, open up the possibilities you hope for and achieve the success you need.    We use our experience to assess existing and proposed developments and help you identify strengths, weaknesses, improvements to ensure pitfalls are avoided investment is maximised. SustainabilityLeonard Design Architects are committed to achieving environmental best practice throughout its business activities, wherever this is practicable. Our environmental responsibility program is based upon continuous improvement, consistent with current knowledge. Environmental management continues to be a company priority fully integrated into our business. We believe sound environmental practice is a key factor demonstrating effective company management. We will seek to educate and train our staff to act in an environmentally responsible manner.Asset EnhancementGood business sense dictates that every property owner wants to maximise the value of their assets; but in a difficult market, that wish becomes an absolute necessity. With increased pressure comes increased competition, and no investment will maintain its value without active management.    From a simple signage project to a major refurbishment and extension, we understand how to replan, refine or retune your property to ensure it achieves its full potential.AWARDSAJ100 - 2016Company awardPublished annually since 1995, the AJ100 ranks the largest architectural practices in the UK.
