Race Cottam Associates

The online public consultation was held yesterday for our Bakewell Health Centre designs for Derbyshire CH NHS Trust & EM Ambulance Service. Working with P&DG there was an online exhibition and Q&A where we welcomed feedback from the community. Our principal activity centres on designing buildings to meet the complex requirements of our many clients. But in addition to architectural design, we act as contract administrators and offer project management services, planning advice and planning supervisory services.

Interior design can bring a soul to a building. We aim to create not only functional spaces but delightful environments that reflect identity and enhance people's experience of a place. Working closely with the architectural team we provide a holistic, complementary and integrated approach from day one to both the exterior and interior appearance of a building. Our work begins with engaging with our clients to establish a strategic and comprehensive brief to ensure we deliver their aspirations and reflect the culture of an organisation.

We are an architectural practice founded to deliver high quality design services and solutions. Our principal activity centres on designing buildings, which meet the complex and demanding requirements of our many clients. In addition to our architectural services, we also offer a selection of more specialist services and roles, tailored to meet the specific needs of each client.

We are very much a team centered practice where our success is a result of working together and celebrating individual uniqueness. We aim to promote a professional and social culture of nurturing, self expression, listening and collaboration. Each team member brings their own strengths and skills to the pot whether it be concept design, stakeholder engagement, project delivery, masterplanning, management, technical skills, interior design, detailing, visualisation or BIM expertise. We are proud that staff members are encouraged to work on a wide range of projects, learning from and sharing experiences to expand their own individual abilities which ultimately has a positive impact on the buildings we produce.
