Investing in our commitment to supporting clients in the north of England, we are excited to have taken residence of a new studio in Leeds.
Directors with strong Yorkshire links have fulfilled long-held ambitions to expand northwards and will lead the expansion. Associate director Alex Walker will head up the new studio, based in Park Square, with support from Nick Gregory and fellow directors.
The new studio aims to build on our core strengths in the education, healthcare, residential and industrial sectors, strengthen ties with existing clients, and form new relationships in the region.
Alex said: “Although CPMG has been actively working in the north of England for many years, it’s a proud moment for me personally to be leading our new studio in Leeds after more than 15 years with the practice. We believe Leeds is the ideal base for us to realise our growth ambitions across Yorkshire and surrounding regions.
“As we have done with our other studios, we’re excited to establish relationships with industry leaders in the different sectors and create pathways for local talent to forge a career in the design and construction industry. The new Leeds studio provides an opportunity to bring CPMG’s strong culture to a new city and build on our network of clients and contacts across the public and private sectors.”
With UK studios in Nottingham, London and Birmingham – as well as international hubs in China and India – for more than 30 years we have been designing buildings that prioritise human needs, support growing communities, and embrace sustainability and innovation. We are already undertaking projects in the region and are on site with new schools in the north east, having recently completed a purpose-built-student-accommodation scheme in Durham.
Nick Gregory said: “All of our studios have opened when the necessary criteria have fallen into place, so that our growth and expansion remains sustainable. Leeds will become our latest hub and it will enable us to increase our presence in northern markets. Alex and I are both from the Leeds area, so we will have no problems speaking the local language, but we plan to allow our design ethos and experience to do the talking for us.”
