Approach
Our approach to architecture
We love architecture and we think everything we design should be special and well thought out, no matter what the size of project.
At Rocket we think differently about design, believing that well considered simplicity can create beautiful buildings that cost less and are more sustainable. Composing a small palette of natural materials to create rooms and spaces that are enjoyable to be in is what we strive for.
We all bring specialist skills to the drawing board, with backgrounds in contemporary, sustainable and conservation architecture. So we're all about trying to preserve what's great, whilst creating fine contemporary architecture for this time.
Rocket Architects believe in creating contemporary buildings that are rooted in this history and based in their locality through massing, materials and occasional quirkiness.
Our approach to business
Our goal for our business is to get talented, hard-working people and to let them focus on you and your project. We hope to make the world a little better and have a little fun on the way there too!
To do this we've set up a very light and flat organisation. We're a collaborative company with communication at its heart. We've set up so we can use any device anywhere so our crew can work when they're at their most inspired, using the latest CAD software and 3D design tools....don't worry we still draw by hand and make models too!
Project teams work flexibly so you'll always have one point of contact, but people with particular skills, knowledge or interest get involved when they need to- to get you the best result.
We try and keep things local to improve where we are. This covers everything from our choice of coffee merchant and bank, through to our specifications for building products and the builders & consultants we work with.
