Satellite Architects is an architecture practice specialising in sustainability. We are a young, award winning practice, covered extensively in the press. We are focused on innovative design and concerned with architectural challenges. At Satellite we do not specialize in any specific building type, we see architecture as a discipline that can be applied to any design challenge. We are interested in projects from social housing to eco villages to bus stops. Our goal is to create exceptionally designed, economically viable projects with a responsibility to the environment. We see sustainability not as an added benefit to our designs but as integral to our process. We understand our critical role in the management of the building process and see our role as collaborators. At Satellite, we realize our success is in the experience of our clients.
Satellite Architects is CHAS certified.
