John Coward Architects was established in 1991 and are based in the picturesque village of Cartmel, south Cumbria, on the edge of the Lake District National Park. We are an RIBA Chartered practice and work extensively throughout Cumbria, Lancashire and Yorkshire. We are interested in all types and sizes of architectural projects for both domestic and commercial clients.
Many of our projects involve the conversion, extension and alteration of existing buildings and as architects in the Lake District we specialise in understanding the region’s very particular vernacular building types. John Coward Architects excel at the design and delivery of new build bespoke houses of all sizes and orientate our approach towards the very specific requirements of each individual client.
John Coward Architects specialise in conservation architecture. We are experts in understanding our built heritage and in undertaking repair and consolidation projects as well as developing heritage assets for new or extended uses. Two of the practice architects are Architects Accredited in Building Conservation (AABC), and both are Specialist Conservation Architects on the RIBA Conservation Register.
If you have a project you would like to discuss with us, or are just looking for some advice, please do not hesitate to contact our friendly team.
We look forward to hearing from you.
John Coward Architects has a highly motivated and dedicated team of individuals with specialisms right across the field of architecture.
