MORE ABOUT BUREAU DE CHANGE
Profile
Bureau de Change is an award-winning architecture practice founded by Katerina Dionysopoulou and Billy Mavropoulos, who hail from Greece and met while training as young architects working at Foster + Partners.
Projects by Bureau de Change are a direct product of the founders' upbringing, passions and experiences – combining the pragmatism and formality of their architectural training with a desire to bring a sense of theatre, playfulness and innovation to the design of spaces, products and environments. The result is a studio where rigorous thinking and analysis are brought to life through prototyping, testing and making.
Billy and Katerina combine practice with teaching, leading an undergraduate unit at The Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL.
The practice is celebrated for its highly inventive and playful private residences, which celebrate material, form and light, including Folds House, Haringey (2015); Step House, Hampstead (2018); Frame House, Clapham (2020); and the Long House in the Cotswolds (2020); as well as richly textured commercial projects such as The Interlock, Fitzrovia (2019), and The Gaslight, Fitzrovia (2020).
The practice has won numerous awards, including FX Breakthrough Talent of the Year 2016 and The Sunday Times Architect of the Year Award 2019.
