Matthew has recently been made a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Architectural Technology in recognition of his contribution to and excellence in Architectural Technology.
“Matthew will bring his extensive knowledge of building performance specification and design, as the practice moves towards the delivery of net zero buildings. I am delighted to be working with Matthew to push the boundaries in building performance across our entire portfolio and provide clients with critical information about the energy performance of their project from an early stage” Director Oliver Leonard

Prior to joining BBL, David has worked on several major projects for architects Sir Terry Farrell and Craig Hamilton.
“David complements our existing senior team and will be a driving force in the delivery of a series of large bespoke dwellings over the next few years. As a someone with over 40 years’ experience in architectural practice, David will be a key part of the team as we look to build on our reputation for excellence in the design and construction of bespoke residential architecture” Director Oliver Leonard

We have an extensive order book of incredible projects in the pipeline and we are privileged to be working with bold and forward thinking clients to deliver building projects of exceptional quality and design. As a practice with roots in both York and Malton we are looking to further establish our reputation for excellence in the high-end residential and bespoke commercial sectors and consolidate our position as a leading creative studio in the North of England.
