Phill in a few words
With a strong background in modern thinking civil & structural engineering consultancies, I'm an imaginative & methodical CAD professional with a personal interest & passion for good design.
I've enjoyed designing, modelling and problem solving on a wide range of projects with a variety of disciplines including engineers, architects, contractors, manufacturers, clients & end users.
Larger structural engineering projects with consulting engineers are still the backbone of what I do. Operating as a multi-skilled design studio & workshop has also earnt me valuable experience in other areas such as manufacturing & industrial / product design and a dedicated premises here provides the perfect setting to operate remotely from clients & a great venue to host visitors.

I worked with Phill for the last couple of years at Parmarbrook, a structural engineering consultancy based in London. We worked on various projects together where he developed structural drawings from preliminary to construction. The projects were typically complex refurbishment of existing buildings, but there were also various new buildings and developments. I really enjoyed working with Phill and would recommend him to anyone.
