Ben Hudson Architects. We want to make the process of building a home easy for clients.Prior to the founding of Ben Hudson Architects, Ben Hudson and John Mathieson met whilst working at Warren and Mahoney, where a shared interest was realised in producing bespoke, imaginative architecture that is well constructed and sits comfortably in it’s surrounding.We believe successful projects require good communication and earned trust between clients, architects, consultants and builders. Our approach is friendly and personable, whilst our work demonstrates sensitivity and subtlety in design.A core strength of the practice is our past experience and combined knowledge and skills that allow us to bring a broader perspective to the conversation. Ben and John work together on all stages of our projects; a collaborative approach that brings dual sensibilities to each design, ensuring that the quality of detail is maintained in the final build.Our goal is to pursue architecture that marries innovative and exciting design with a keen awareness of context and environmental responsibility. Our architecture is not about pre-determined style or fashion, we seek to produce enduring livable architecture capable of inspiration and delight. Put simply, we aim to create places and spaces that people love.Core strength is our past experience and the combined knowledge and skills of the team.
