Originally from Fife in Scotland, John is our newest member of staff but comes with over a decade of experience in a variety of different sectors. Having studied Archaeology prior to becoming an Architect, John has specialist knowledge and experience with historic buildings and conservation architecture. His archaeological experience is, however, sometimes a mixed blessing as he has often been called to crawl around old buildings (and one time up a chimney) to record the historic fabric!

A graduate of the Centre for Alternative Technology, John is passionate about sustainability and designing buildings which promote health and wellbeing. John’s architectural tastes are a mixture of Japandi-style minimalism and Mid-Century Modern. This interest extends into fashion and interior design although it can be a challenging to implement at home when contending with two small children and a puppy…

Outside of work, John is a keen runner and rock climber although he has recently taken up fencing as another way to injure himself. Aside from his physical exertions, John is a keen reader and is a huge sci-fi fan.
