About Us - Chapman Architects

Chapman Architects are designers whose experience, sector expertise and creativity has delivered a unique portfolio of buildings and environments.

We offer a full range of consultancy services which encompass;

Masterplanning
Architecture
Interior Design and Space Planning
Landscape Design

Chapman Architects was established in 2014 by Greg Chapman. Our workload is broad and encompasses projects across all sectors of the industry; from new offices and apartments, to complex refurbishments of existing buildings. Our projects often encompass more than one discipline, incorporating architecture, interior design and landscape, providing our clients with coordinated and integrated service.

What our clients say

“We have been working with the Chapman Architects team for a little more than two years on a major redevelopment of our central London corporate headquarter building. During this time I have worked with many of the Chapman Architects team and found them all to be of equal high caliber – always attentive to our needs and sensitive to the fact that we are not architects or developers and therefore we need our hand being held and our voice being heard. When the project comes to an end I shall, on one side be, excited because of the result but sad that I have reached the end of an enjoyable working relationship. I hope that I find other projects to work with the Chapman Architects team on as I am sure the results will be equally brilliant.”

The Management Team

Greg Chapman RIBA

Director

Greg founded Chapman Architects in 2005, and has more than 25 years of professional experience. Previously, Greg worked with both Arup and Bennetts Associates Architects, for 10 years.

Greg works with national and international clients, delivering new build and refurbishment projects in the leisure, retail, education, residential and office sectors. He is committed to delivering the highest standard of design to all projects and, to that end, is involved at every stage. However, there is no doubt that Greg has gained particular experience in ensuring that the ‘die is cast’ in the initial stages of a project, to ensure it meets the client’s brief and presents the best value option.

Over the years, Greg has developed a good rapport and track record with planning authorities, where his straight and open style of presentation, has ensured many successful permissions. Greg is an enthusiast and enjoys the design process. He is keen that the Company exceeds client’s expectations in both the design and delivery.

Annie Chapman BA Hons

Practice Director

Prior to becoming a Director at Chapman Architects, Annie worked for 25 years in the design industry, and for the last 15, went on to grow her own award-winning landscape design company.

Annie is committed to ensuring the smooth running of ‘all that isn’t architecture’ within the practice and is determined to oversee and encourage the current growth, without losing Chapman Architect’s friendly and approachable quality. Annie recognises that the output of the office is in part, a product of the well-being of the overall team. To this end, she strives to ensure that the office has an active and vibrant environment, and that everyone is well supported.

In her spare time Annie is restoring her derelict garden within rural Hampshire.

Andrew Frankel RIBA

Associate Director

Since qualifying in 2008 Andrew has worked on a diverse range of projects in a wide variety of sectors. These include, new recording facilities for Abbey Road Studios; a 27-storey residential tower at Canada Water; a commercial office redevelopment in Westminster, and numerous high-end residential projects within London.

Andrew has a track record of delivering projects right through from inception to completion. He is a trusted member of the Chapman Architect’s Management team, and his considered approach ensures that projects run smoothly.

Heather Bell RIBA

Associate

Heather graduated from the Glasgow School of Art in 2012 and qualified as a RIBA Architect in 2014.
