Chris Wilderspin Architects (CWA) is a firm that offers bespoke architectural services, including the design of new homes, renovations, extensions, and conversions. CWA operates in North Wales and beyond, providing clients with a locally-based yet internationally-inspired architectural experience. Chris Wilderspin, the firm's founder, has had a rich and varied career in architecture, having worked for several architectural practices and on a wide range of projects. He established CWA to offer clients a personalised and efficient service that prioritises their needs and responds intelligently to the site.
Chris is passionate about creating well-considered, good value design that is specific to each client's requirements and site. He is equally committed to minimising the environmental impact of construction and is experienced in using both traditional and modern building techniques and materials. He carefully studies each site before designing a bespoke solution that maximises the use of natural resources, such as daylight and sunlight.
Before starting CWA, Chris was a Partner at van Heyningen and Haward Architects, a well-renowned London practice. Here, he gained valuable experience working on projects in sensitive and historic settings for clients such as the National Trust, the RSPB, and several private schools. As a result, he is adept at understanding the unique needs of clients and interacting effectively with statutory bodies such as planning authorities and conservation groups.
