CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTURE
As architects, our role is to create great buildings that work well, are cost effective and are a pleasure to use. Our aim is to integrate those buildings into their context and to maximise their potential to help the wider area to flourish or to promote its regeneration. We believe in simplicity and that coherent and modest buildings, informed by an integrated approach to sustainability and longevity, are more likely to stand the test of time. And our interest in craft and in quality underpins the technical rigour of our approach, from the macro through to the micro scales.

INTERIORS
Through our background in also designing interiors, we create fully-integrated interiors within our architectural projects, as well as stand-alone interior spaces. Careful analysis of the client or operator brief and an understanding of the end-user is the foundation of our approach. We produce spaces that are not only memorable, but that also respond to the buildings they form part of, whether new or old. We avoid fashion, instead taking a strong interest in the applications of materials, the development of details and the use of light, to produce spaces designed to endure.

FILM + PHOTOGRAPHY
Paul Foxley is a film maker as well as an architect. Several years ago he set up Foxley Film to realise a long-held ambition and push the boundaries of his creative abilities. He often works closely with his son Oliver, himself a professional photographer, to portray architecture in still and moving images.
OUR TEAM

PAUL FOXLEY
ARCHITECT + OWNER
Paul was about seven when he decided he wanted to be an architect and has run his own architectural practice for more than twenty of the thirty odd years since he qualified. Along the way he has gained a wealth of experience in residential, healthcare, education, industrial, hospitality and research sectors.

MARGARET FOXLEY
CLIENT SERVICES + ACCOUNTS
Margaret is very much a people person and is a very skillful organiser and negotiator and shares Paul's passion for great architecture. Her input ensures that day to day administrative tasks do not get in the way of the creative process and that our clients get the very best attention at all times.

OLIVER FOXLEY
ARCHITECTURAL PHOTOGRAPHER
Oliver has wide experience of architectural photography, having undertaken many commissions for architects and corporate clients. He is our right hand man when it comes to producing outstanding architectural images.
ABOUT
The Experience Matters!
Paul Foxley has over 30 years experience in housing, one-off houses, commercial, healthcare, education and retail sectors, applying his design flair and attention to detail to all aspects of a project.
Choose your architect with care. Undertaking an architectural project without adequate help can be extremely stressful, as anyone who has watched Grand Designs will know. Having a safe pair of hands like Paul’s to guide you every step of the way can ensure your experience is a pleasurable one. Sit back and enjoy the ride.
Enjoying your finished building project for years to come can be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life. To ensure your experience is one of sheer delight, your architect needs to go far beyond meeting your practical needs to give you a well designed and beautifully executed piece of architecture. Give yourself the thrill you deserve.
We place considerable emphasis on a detailed analysis of the brief and the development of a clear understanding of the aspirations of our clients. Our designs then evolve as a direct response to this, and to their context, in order to create good places that complement and add to their locality, offer delight to those who use them and foster community.
Architecture is seen as being technology-based, so it is often assumed that as architects we are more concerned with science than art. This is not the case. We see ourselves more as artists than technicians and our primary concerns are with aesthetics not calculations. We embrace the latest technology and our buildings function fantastically, but we are also passionate about what our buildings look like and how they feel. Technology is for us a vital means to an exciting end. Our aim is always to lift the spirit and delight our client.
