About Us

We are architects guided by natural and sustainable principles and aim to create spaces that improve the quality of people’s lives. We are interested in design at all scales and the interaction between art, landscape, history and the built environment.

Coda Workshop likes to involve all interested parties in the design process and we will always ensure that we develop a personal relationship with clients, working closely to ensure the brief is being met to it’s full potential.

We have experience working within Conservation areas and with Grade I, Grade II and Grade II* Listed buildings as well as Scheduled Ancient Monuments. Our approach to conservation is derived from an in depth understanding of the historical significance of a building and a sensitive consideration of the value of historic fabric.

We are registered with the following organisations:

ARB, Passivhaus Trust, AECB, SPAB, Landscape Institute
