koru architects is a design-led, Sussex based practice that has earned a reputation for thoughtful, environmentally-friendly design and a ‘client-centred’ approach to projects.

‘our design philosophy’
Our design solutions display originality and integrity and are guided by the principles of environmental sustainability. Creative use of light and space, attention to detail and the careful selection of natural materials are all characteristics of our projects. Our approach to each design is unique yet our aims are the same: to create spaces that are delightful, comfortable and sustainable.

‘we can add value to your project’
Our creative and holistic approach to a project coupled with our ability for problem solving and lateral thinking enables us to explore many more options than may at first be apparent. Whether it be gaining additional floorspace from the same footprint, improving the chances of securing planning approval through thoughtful, sensitive design or creating inspirational spaces to live and work in we always strive to add value to your project.

‘our knowledge and experience can benefit you’
We put the client at the centre of the design process and guide you through the complexities of planning, building control and selecting a contractor. The directors bring their hands-on knowledge and experience to each and every project and invest time to explore all the options and possibilities. You will benefit from over forty years of combined architectural experience, whether it be through increased property value or operational improvements for your business.

‘we can help you save money while helping to save the planet’
With over a decade of experience designing and delivering low energy, sustainable buildings and with an established network of specialist consultants and suppliers we are ideally placed to advise you how best to reduce the carbon footprint of your project and to reduce your energy and water costs too. We are passionate about environmental sustainability and as a demonstration of our commitment we have built our own zero carbon home and studio.
