As part of our Architecture and Design educational tour during London Design Festival (18-19 June 2019) we are going to visit the renowned firm Allford Hall Monaghan Morris, one of the world's leading architectural practices ranked 4th in the 2018 best English Architecture firms ranking measured by the number of qualified architects employed and turnover.

Established in 1989, Allford Hall Monaghan Morris makes buildings that are satisfying and enjoyable to use, beautiful to look at and easy to understand. The practice designs very different buildings for very different people to use in very different ways, making places as well as buildings that work over time and have lasting qualities intrinsic to their architecture.
