Founded Studio began as an architectural practice committed to exceptional design. Over time, they identified a disconnect between design aspirations and the construction process, which was often adversarial and profit-driven, leading to a compromise in design quality. To address this, in 2010, they shifted their focus to put design quality at the heart of the process by using Construction Management.
This approach, combined with their architectural perspective, fosters a harmonious, collaborative team and drives project costs down. In 2012, Founded Studio was established as a standalone company to offer construction management and allied services to clients and architectural teams. They pride themselves on challenging conventions and questioning the status quo of the UK construction industry, which they see as fragmented and conflict-ridden.
By bringing together top talent from both the design and construction worlds early in the process, they aim to deliver the best possible end product more cost-effectively. They are constantly seeking ways to improve efficiency and streamline processes to create superior outcomes for their clients. Founded Studio manages projects of all sizes, offering expertise from start to finish.
They protect the design integrity, source the best craftsmen, and manage the entire process with obsessive attention to detail and creativity. Their approach provides a refreshing and honest alternative in the market, focusing on professional design leadership and cost-consciousness to bring great ideas to life.
