Neil Dusheiko Architects is an architectural design studio based in Islington, London. Established in 2011, we are an emerging practice, working on small carefully crafted projects that have a richness of detail.

We have built up a portfolio of well designed residential and commercial projects, including the award winning Timber Fin House and the complex modification of a house in a conservation area in Hammersmith for a media executive.

Among our projects, currently in progress, is an environmentally friendly new build house in Hackney, using innovative materials such as cross-laminated timber to achieve high sustainability standards. We are also working on the modification and extension of houses around London as well as the restoration of a historic Thames fireboat – The Beta-iii, the oldest remaining fireboat built in 1926.

Our work has been widely featured in publications including Grand Designs and The RIBA Small Projects Handbook and has been exhibited at the Royal Academy Summer Show.

We emphasise the use of natural light and natural materials in our work. Creating buildings and spaces that are elegant, timeless and contribute to their surroundings. The practice works with challenging briefs and solves complex problems with rational and clear design solutions.

Our conceptual ideas are developed and presented through sketches, models, drawings and dialogue. We believe that good design makes the world a better place and can enrich people’s lives.

We work closely with our clients from the outset to develop their brief into an imaginative, pragmatic and cost effective solution that is appropriate to its physical locale and context. We do not have a pre-determined approach to making architecture. Each design solution is unique to the project, the client and the place. Our clients are always at the centre of our design process.
