Award-Winning Architects in Staines with 50 Years of Design Experience

Robert Davies John West are an award-winning architects practice based in Staines, delivering creative, sustainable and thoughtful design solutions across the UK and internationally for over 50 years. Our experienced team works across residential, commercial and community projects, combining design innovation with technical expertise. We pride ourselves on a personal and professional approach that brings each client’s vision to life — from concept to completion.

With over five decades of architectural practice behind us we offer to you expertise, wisdom and innovation all underpinned with diligent and thoughtful practicality. 

We deliver 'real-world' architecture', that balances your aspirations, budget and timeframe. No matter the scale, typology or geographical location we have always approached design solutions holistically — consistently outperforming regulatory frameworks in planning, building regulations and sustainability standards.

We are pioneers of sustainable architecture. In the early 1990s, we delivered the UK’s first commercial building with a deep borehole heat exchange system for Ascom Hasler in Croydon. Since then, we’ve continued to lead with innovative, experimental, and environmentally responsible design — from off-grid eco-houses and Passivhaus projects to fabric-first strategies, solar gain optimisation, natural cooling, and landscape-led solutions. We are bound by honesty and integrity... and we love beautiful solutions.

This has always been our ethos.

Featured projects

"We have been working with Robert Davies John West for over thirty years on many interesting and varied projects from apartments and bespoke houses to two new boat clubs. These projects have always run successfully from planning to completion and this is due to the comprehensive service offered covering all aspects of the planning and construction process. We are now on the second generation of family members running the companies which is a testament to the structure and service offered by both"
