South West Business Insider - Architects and Design feature, December 2012

Flexibility has been the name of the game for architects over the last five years -  with domestic large-scale commercial work drying up, architects have had to travel further and take on increasingly diverse work to stay in the game. At first, it was ‘you have to be in education’ then ‘you need a Middle East angle’.

Across the South West, there have been firms overcoming the worst the downturn has had to throw at it, going from strength to strength. For this feature, we’ll be speaking to those regional practices who’ve survived and thrived – what have they done to stay ahead of the pack? Where is demand for their services coming from? With new development scarce and plenty of old stock needing a new look, what will the future hold for development in our cities?

Comments/contacts welcome by 5th November 2012, please.

* Analysis from leading surveyors, lawyers, financiers, occupiers, landlords and investors.
