ECE Architecture is an award-winning architecture practice dedicated to the successful design and delivery of projects that exceed expectations in the widest sense.

Our expertise and enthusiasm is applied in partnership with our clients to provide innovative and sustainable solutions to all stages of the development process.

Concept Design
We aspire to the highest quality of design and service to our clients and the wider communities in which our projects are delivered. We regard design quality as paramount. Our processes merge architectural theory and practice through: comprehensive brief taking; site research and analysis; and internal design reviews.

Planning Expertise
Negotiating the planning process requires knowledge and expertise. We apply these alongside the wider design team to provide our clients with the greatest opportunity for success. Throughout we are able to draw on the expertise of the team at ECE Planning.

Technical Delivery
Realising our designs requires construction knowledge and site experience – buildability is essential. We do not judge projects in terms of scale and status: instead, we apply our in-depth technical knowledge to ensure that the construction phase delivers the highest quality outcome to our clients, the building users and the design team alike.
