Atelier73 Architects

At Atelier73 Architects Ltd, we are an award-winning architectural practice located in the vibrant town of Southend on Sea. We are deeply committed to creating contemporary design that not only meets but exceeds our clients' expectations, all while staying true to our values of quality, sustainability, and bespoke solutions. Our journey began with a simple yet profound desire-to create architecture that tells a story, architecture that embodies the unique dreams and aspirations of each client.

We believe that every site and every home is unique, and we therefore reject the one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we embrace the beauty of bespoke design, tailoring each project to the specific needs and desires of our clients. Our dynamic team thrives on the exchange of ideas, and we eagerly welcome the unique visions our clients bring to the table. We meet challenges head-on with innovative, tailor-made design solutions that not only meet individual requirements but also harmonise seamlessly with their surroundings. At the core of our philosophy are contemporary sculptured forms, brought to life by sustainable technology. We're not just architects; we're storytellers, weaving the narratives of people and places into every design we craft.

One of our most notable projects is 'The Sheds', the first UK Passivhaus premium home located in the Cotswolds, which was featured on Grand Designs. This project showcases our commitment to innovative, standout architecture that meets the highest standards of sustainability.

Our Approach: Collaboration, Innovation, and Sustainability

At Atelier73 Architects Ltd, we take a collaborative approach to every project, working closely with our clients to develop a deep understanding of their needs and aspirations. We believe that the design process should be an exciting and rewarding journey, and we strive to engage our clients in this process every step of the way.

Our team of experienced architects is passionate about creating architecture that delights and inspires. We are problem solvers at heart, and we love the challenges of different projects. We are as happy inspecting work on site as we are drawing, and we find ourselves involved in every aspect of our projects. We are committed to using sustainable technology to bring our designs to life, and we are constantly exploring new and innovative ways to reduce our carbon footprint.
