Philosophy
A dynamic force in the architectural profession, Nigel Coates leads a multidisciplinary studio that reaches across every aspect of design. The studio has extensive experience in the realisation of cultural buildings, museums and galleries. In the commercial sphere we specialise in hotel design, retail and restaurants. Our furniture and lighting design is extensive, and is produced with leading companies in Italy, the UK and around the world. We also consult on creative design strategy and brand development.
