“Before we take to the sea we walk on land
Before we create we must understand”
About
I practice as a sole trader in London, Bristol + the south west. I specialise in the home & housing. I am currently on site with a new build house in Hackney and re-modelling a home in Stokes Croft, Bristol.
Simon Mundy BA(hons) Dip Arch RIBA
Architect with over 20 years experience. In that time I have worked on award winning designs: Brighton Museum & Art Gallery (Civic Trust awards 2003), London Coliseum (Civic Trust awards 2006). A winning Olympic masterplan for the London 2012 Bid and many other successful projects: The Vauxhall end re-development at the Oval; Centre Court roof, Wimbledon, Slimbridge WWT workers housing, and Two community self build projects using the Walter Segal system. I have built new homes and extended, remodelled and adapted many homes.
Approach:
I recognise my responsibility to the environment so always design from first principles. This way I ensure best practices from the outset rather than applying secondary green ‘bolt-ons’ to help improve the performance of our buildings. I recognise the responsibility to promote the sustainable use of the world’s natural resources and take a resourceful approach to both design and construction. We try and avoid as much building waste as possible and promote recycling and reuse where ever possible.
Clients:
I'm proud to have received many repeat commissions from clients, which I consider a testament to exceeding their expectations.
Social Responsibility:
2.5% of profits are donated or loaned to individuals around the world to help realise their dreams or needs through Kiva.org
