Architectural Practice Statement

Unsurprisingly for Architects their principal obsession is Light; both the careful insertion of openings to precisely order the volumes with natural daylight and the concealment or artificial light sources to create a comfortable environment. Northlight, Toplight, diffused light, and the gentle glow of the evening.Light is everything.

Though a design-lead practice keen to push for excellence in the difficult environment of the Construction Industry; they respect, value and encourage the client's involvement in the design process, which they consider to be crucial to the work.

They enjoy their vicarious entry into the client's life, finding out how they wake-up, how the drink their coffee and how they relax after a long day at work. Making the spaces that work with this and sometimes add to it, is what they're about.

Their clear and sober preoccupations are often the perfect setting for your more unusual suggestions and cravings.

Zac Monro Architects have been practising in France and the UK since 1995.
