We’re excited to welcome Daphne to the team!

Daphne joins GRADONARCHITECTURE as a Part 2 Architectural Assistant, having recently completed her Master’s in Architecture at the University of Sheffield.

As part of her role, Daphne will be involved in a variety of projects, producing architectural drawings, collaborating with colleagues, clients and consultants, and gaining hands-on experience across different areas of architectural practice.

As our practice continues to grow, we're always pleased to welcome fresh ideas, new perspectives and emerging talent. We look forward to supporting Daphne as she develops her skills, takes on new challenges and progresses towards becoming a qualified architect.

Welcome to the team, Daphne!

From initial drawings to seeing the early stages of construction, our Excellence Centre extension at Kepier School is now moving through the modular construction process, with the building currently being manufactured off site in the factory.

Each module is carefully constructed and prepared before being transported to site, ready to be lifted into position and assembled at Kepier School.

It’s an exciting milestone for the project as the design moves from our initial concepts and drawings into a tangible building on site.

We’re looking forward to seeing the modules arrive and watching the Excellence Centre take shape over the coming weeks.

Congratulations, Olivia!

After years of hard work, dedication and commitment, Olivia has recently completed her Part 3 studies with Distinction and is now a fully qualified Architect.

Olivia followed the Degree Apprenticeship route, allowing her to gain valuable experience within practice from the very beginning of her studies, while combining academic learning with real world experience.

Working in practice throughout her studies has provided Olivia with the opportunity to develop her skills, knowledge and confidence, while gaining a genuine understanding of the architectural profession. It has also enabled her to apply her academic learning directly to live projects, building valuable experience alongside her studies.

We are incredibly proud of Olivia and all that she has achieved, and we look forward to seeing her continue to develop and progress in her career as an Architect!

During the World Cup, GRADONARCHITECTURE held a sweepstake with valued clients and people we work with, raising donations to support the U14 Washington Wildcats Girls football team, which is coached by our Technical Director, Graeme.

Since then, the donations have already helped the team with a range of things, including new bibs, cones, footballs and team kits, improvements to their training
facilities, and even supporting the girls in taking part in a tournament.

While these may seem like simple pieces of equipment, they can make a huge difference. Having the right resources and opportunities allows the girls to develop their football skills, build confidence and grow as young athletes, while also supporting their overall wellbeing.

We’re proud to support such a fantastic group of young athletes and proud of the commitment Graeme continues to give to the team.

Today is a huge milestone, and we want to wish everyone receiving their results the very best as they take the next step in their journey.

Whether you’re heading into further education, starting an apprenticeship, entering the workplace or exploring your options, there are so many exciting opportunities ahead.

At GRADONARCHITECTURE, we’re passionate about supporting young people and helping them take their first steps into the industry. Over the years, we’ve welcomed many students into the practice, giving them the opportunity to gain valuable hands-on experience, learn from those working in the profession and explore where a career in architecture and the built environment could take them.

We’re particularly proud to continue supporting the T Level route and the opportunities it provides for young people to combine classroom learning with valuable, real-world industry experience.

Our commitment to T Levels has been longstanding. Tanja Smith, who previously represented GRADONARCHITECTURE, played an active role in supporting their development, contributing to industry panels and helping to raise awareness of the different routes available to young people entering the profession.

It was fantastic to see Tanja’s wider contribution to industry and education recognised with an OBE.

As we continue to support the next generation, we’re proud to play our part in giving young people the experience, confidence and opportunities they need to take their next steps and build successful careers.

Over the past few weeks, we’ve been delighted to welcome Kasie to the team as part of her work experience placement.

During her time with us, Kasie has had the opportunity to get involved in a mix of work across the studio, giving her a valuable insight into the different aspects of the industry and what day-to-day life in a working studio looks like.

From working alongside the team and experiencing the variety of tasks and projects that take place behind the scenes, to visiting sites and seeing the work, Kasie has been able to develop new skills, build her knowledge and gain a better understanding of the opportunities available within the industry.

Work experience is a great way to explore potential career paths and gain practical knowledge that can be carried forward into further education and university. We hope the experience has given Kasie greater confidence in her abilities and plenty of skills and insight that she can take with her into the next stage of her education.

It’s been a pleasure having Kasie as part of the team, and we’re delighted to have been able to support her learning and development.
