Formed in 2000 John Pardey Architects – jpa – has built a strong reputation for contemporary design excellence and quality, which has been rewarded by international acclaim.

Best known for timeless one-off houses, the studio has grown to enjoy working on a diverse range of building types that include mixed-use schemes and unique large scale residential projects. Based on England’s south coast, the studio has grown and diversified its design portfolio to include projects in Europe and the Americas.

In each individual home, the jpa creative team aims to achieve a timeless quality and a delight in

the ordinary – the joy of simple natural materials enriched by a precision or juxtaposition. This encompasses the idea of uniting inside and outside spaces, to create a natural place to live that celebrates view and the changing weather, while ensuring an energy-efficient and easily maintained home.

National recognition for jpa has included 54 awards, including eight RIBA Awards; two Housing Design Awards in 2020; along with the Gold Medal for Architecture in Wales in 2013. A year later, jpa was cited as one of Britain’s top six residential design practices in the Sunday Times.
