Employer Description:
Established in 2006, Studio Kyson is an award-winning, architectural practice with a reputation for producing well-crafted, contextual and contemporary projects within the built environment.

By combining this approach with emphasising an expression of architectural form and an underlying rationale derived from classic proportions, our approach to design ensures the aesthetic qualities of the architecture become integral to its functionality. The practice’s body of work is broad with commissions across the UK including private houses, hotels, interiors, restaurants and commercial spaces. Studio Kyson are a medium-sized practice with a team of passionate staff that seek to excel at each phase of a project, regardless of scale or scope.
