latest News: Spence & Dower and xsite architecture
Spence and Dower are pleased to announce that we have formally merged with our sister practice ‘xsite architecture’, a slightly larger well established local architect’s practice.
Spence and Dower remains in name as a highly distinctive ‘practice within a practice’ with our own letterheads and website.
Current Spence and Dower staff have not changed and our clients will see no noticeable difference in the way we work. We will just be able to provide a more comprehensive service on specific jobs when it is required.
Tim Bailey of xsite is Head of Practice, Tina Gough is Head of Heritage and Conservation, Adrian Philpotts is Head of Architecture and Rowena Burbeck is Head of Architectural Technology.
Having moved to xsite offices in 2019, working as independent practices but with our resulting collaboration on some projects, we have found that having access to others who offer different but complimentary skills, has been beneficial.
We hope to be taking on further suitably qualified staff who have a leaning towards and desire to further develop their experience in historic building work.
