Pinnegar Hayward Design specialise in complex multi-phased refurbishment schemes across a variety of sectors.
Whilst lots of architects are adept at producing new builds the team at PHd have years of experience delivering refurbishment and extension schemes which require a different thought process, approach, consideration and skill set to resolving the problems created by retrofit.
The team at PHd are adept problem solvers and with refurbishment comes the challenge for ensuring design solutions which are fit for purpose, comply with current regulations and are flexible for the future as well. Our experienced team are well versed in finding solutions to these issues and creating practical solutions as well as inspiring spaces for our clients.
Often refurbishments are carried out in live environments, (eg healthcare & education) where adjacent areas need to be kept fully operational whilst the project is undertaken. PHd team are proud of our practical approach to ensuring projects are deliverable and consider the passing and buildability of projects as part of the holistic design process.
Our approach is to work with the constraints and create innovative solutions which offer improved sustainability, lower energy buildings, whilst also giving clear circulation and space planning so any constraints are not obvious to the building users.
