Jeremy Blake
Partner, Architect, BA (Hons) BArch (Hons) RIBA ARIAS AABC Rome Scholarship

Jeremy leads the practice’s Sustainable Heritage Hotels initiative, known as Shh!, which is helping clients in the hospitality industry to find greener ways to build and operate. Whether the project involves converting a historic listed building for hotel use or constructing anew, he is able to demonstrate that sustainability makes good practical and economic sense.

While in his element working in constrained situations with listed and other sensitive buildings, Jeremy also enjoys the challenge of delivering environmentally responsible extensions and alterations. He is proud of the fact that the distribution centre he designed for Adnams Brewery gained a BREEAM Excellent rating.

‘I thrive on complexity and constraints. Then to move on to a clear logical design which is both commercially viable and aesthetically pleasing is very satisfying.’
