Background

Sillitoe Architecture is the architectural practice of Geoffrey Sillitoe and provides a friendly and professional design service for new-build developments and - through our Historic Buildings Practice - specialize in the conservation, adaption and extension of historic buildings.  

Using a combination of traditional hand-drawn draughting and physical scale modelling, we are able to provide a personalised service tuned specifically to our client's needs.  We view every project - regardless of size - as the opportunity to make a unique contribution to the built environment - by fulfilling our client's aspirations.

Geoffrey Sillitoe was born and grew up in Shropshire before studying architecture at De Montfort, Leicester.  After graduating in 2001, he moved to Cardiff to work for the Percy Thomas Partnership, as part of the team designing the theatre and interior spaces of the Wales Millennium Centre.

Having worked for three of the top 100 practices in the UK, his experience has covered public, private, commercial, residential and educational projects.  He has maintained an involvement working with historic buildings, including the authentic restoration of Sir John Soane's last country house; working for CADW, and in his private practice.  He is an Associate Tutor teaching on the undergraduate history and theory modules at the Welsh School of Architecture.

The following pages describe a selection of his past and current work both in his private practice and whilst working for other architects in the UK.
