Nick Cox Architects was established in 2006 and is based just north of Oxford. The practice specialises in the repair and conservation of historic buildings and the design of new buildings in a historic context. The conservation philosophy of the practice is grounded in developing a proper understanding of the historic fabric and carrying out thoughtful repairs and conservation.
The practice's approach to new design is rooted in an understanding of materials and their behaviour over time - knowledge of which principally derives from work on historic buildings. Using traditional materials and methods is often not only sustainable but, when combined, contemporary materials and design can be visually exciting for users of the building.
The practice comprises eight Architects, a fully qualified Architectural Technician and a secretary. The practice undertakes a diverse range of projects, varying from ecclesiastical work to residential refurbishment and the conservation of stately homes and landscape buildings.

Services
Have excellent design skills, related to an interest in both historic buildings and new design. Be open minded and willing to discuss options relating to design challenges. These should be married with an ability to take initiative but also to have an appreciation for the constraints in which a solution needs to be found.
