Who We Are 1968 1970 1974 1980 1988 1990 1993 2001 2005 2015 2018 2021 1968 Our practice is founded by Hedley Greentree in Southsea, Portsmouth. In early years, speculative office development, business parks and HQ offices was the mainstay for the practice. Later this would come to include waterfront regenerative projects. How We Work Our home is an accessible, open plan space with rich garden space which facilitates spontaneous encounters and conversation, promoting the value of good design on mental health and wellbeing. This flexibility supports our family values and means we operate as a collective unit; fostering an atmosphere of friendliness, comfort and collaboration. We listen and look to support one another, providing ample opportunities for growth, learning and professional development. Our empathy with each other and with the needs of our clients informs our design process directly. We adopt a design led approach that looks to deliver characterful buildings through model making, sketching and 3D rendering. Our Team Our range of experience boasts a unique blend of specialist teams that are design focused and technically adept. In-house workshops disseminate knowledge from technical teams into early stage design and vice versa, helping us realise ambitious and fully thought out proposals. This puts us at a distinct advantage when it comes to taking projects from concept through to practical completion. Our Clients We believe that meaningful design is the result of open conversation. We have a strong legacy of committed staff who, through their years of service, act as custodians of our clients; building trust and ensuring leadership continuity on all projects.
