We listen carefully, speak plainly, and turn strong ideas into thoughtful and joyful buildings

About Us

 

Together with our clients, we turn strong ideas into thoughtful and joyful buildings.

Curiosity and a questioning mindset are the oxygen of our studio, but our success is built on the drive to make things happen. We’re drawn to ambitious, complex projects, and to historic environments that call for a sensitive and holistic approach.

We’re constantly turning ideas and possibilities over in our minds, looking for the playfulness, the quirk, the joy, that lifts a project beyond the ordinary and means that no two designs are ever the same. Enduring beauty, timeless design and solid craftsmanship – these will always be our inspiration. We see these as the foundation of sustainability; it’s about longevity and spending wisely, and it’s about living well and treading lightly upon the earth.

We strive to cut the jargon and demystify the process; listening to even the quietest voices and speaking plainly is our way of involving everyone in the conversation. You might have imagination, resolve and confidence in abundance, or you might be taking your first tentative steps towards a project. Whichever it is, you can think of us as being in your corner and right beside you on the journey.

Working with Us

Deciding to appoint an Architect will be the start of a significant journey, which will represent a substantial investment of your time and money. It is our responsibility, as an RIBA Chartered Architectural Practice, to guide our clients through this process and to make it as enjoyable and rewarding an experience as possible. We believe that giving clear, frank and professional advice from the outset is key to keeping clients informed and engaged with the process.

Our Expertise

 

Residential Design

At Nash Baker Architects we offer traditional architectural services with a modern outlook. The roots of the practice go back over 40 years, during which time we have proven ourselves adept in delivering enduring residential projects in central London and the South East.

Conservation and Heritage

Nash Baker Architects specialise in conservation and heritage projects; offering a full range of architectural services for the repair and restoration of historic buildings. These skills also apply in the sensitive design of new buildings, extensions, and alterations in a contemporary or period style, using traditional materials and craftsmanship.

 

“My favourite aspect of the project was the human adventure; connecting with a team of brilliant architects and efficient builders that understood the fabric of this very unique house and were committed to bringing it into the 21st century without losing its soul.”

Interior Design

Residential projects increasingly involve fully designed and co-ordinated interiors with a careful selection of interior products, finishes and furnishings from the enormous ranges now available. We are experienced in designing beautiful interiors, but also love collaborating with other interior designers.

Developer Services

We offer a bespoke range of services for property developers which can be tailored to meet the level of service you require for your project. These services range from inception to completion, and aim to help you unlock the potential of each and every site.

 
 

Pre-Purchase Services

We are experienced in supporting our clients when searching for their next home; by helping them imagine the development potential and design opportunities presented by each property, as well as understand the potential risks and complexities.

Environmental Services

At Nash Baker, we're dedicated to environmentally conscious design for a sustainable future. Beyond meeting environmental standards, our in-house expertise and software unlock your building's full potential, ensuring innovative and green solutions.

 

“In the past I have been a developer and have been actively involved in creating many commercial and industrial buildings. I can assure you that not one of the planning situations involved has ever run as smoothly as this. I have described you as 'a class act' and you are one. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you to other land owners for schemes which are both residential and commercial.”
