About the practice

KSS are a 100 strong chartered architects, interior and graphic design practice, formed in 1991 and based in central London and Sevenoaks, Kent.

We specialise in the design of major sports venues and training facilities, educational projects and residential developments, and have a reputation for providing high quality design backed by sound commercial judgement and a client focused professional service.

Designing Intelligently

KSS’ aim is to create intelligent and flexible modern architecture where the design is informed by site context, functionality and a practical approach to sustainability and energy efficiency.

Each project generates unique problems to solve.  We never “stand still” and always look to improve the way we design to give building users the best possible experience.

KSS are a practice that listens to our clients. We are team players in the design process, and believe in an open approach based on understanding, exploration and mutual respect.

Working Collaboratively

KSS work in virtually all market sectors, and have extensive experience on education, residential and leisure projects, and an international reputation on major sports venues and training facilities.

We take a positive approach to collaborative working and have established teaming and partnerships both in the UK and worldwide. KSS’ work place is informal but focussed, and we provide clients with a highly personal and responsive service based on honest pragmatic advice and a ‘can do’ attitude.

What they have to say..

“Architecture has the potential to inspire and be an enormous force for good. Buildings form long term backdrops to people’s lives, and provide comfort, security, stimulation and enjoyment. We have a responsibility to design the best we can to progressively shape a better world, both for now and for future generations.”
