Grindley Architects - Open House
The Office, 7 Lissel Road, Simpson, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, MK6 3AX
David Grindley set up the practice in 1992. Soon after David formed a partnership with Trevor Denton following his move back into practice after a number of years as Professor of Architecture at Herriot Watt University and saw the completion of significant projects such as the College of Aeronautics at Cranfield University and numerous high profile competition submissions.
In 2002 the practice became David Grindley Architects. The commission for Headington Baptist Church in Oxford provided the opportunity for David's eldest son Robert and his wife Emma to join the practice in 2002, with David's other son Paul Grindley, joining the practice in 2006.
In 2005 plans to rebuild and extend the office in Simpson, Milton Keynes received planning permission. Paul took responsibility for the design and construction of one of the first Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) buildings in the UK and in the summer of 2006 the practice moved into new office space. In 2007 the design for The Office received an RIBA regional award.
In 2018 the practice was renamed Grindley Architects with Robert, Emma and Paul Grindley joining David as Partners.
The office will be open for members of the public to see inside a local architects practice.
