Hard working, straight talking
architectural and interior design solutions

Joined up services for the built environment

Architecture Interior Design

The lines between architecture and interior design are blurred and, in some cases, non-existent. We have been offering hard working architectural solutions since 1976. While that process has always included all aspects of how the building works both inside and out, in 2025 we raised our game to ensure that interiors have equal weighting to buildings, in terms of being delivered by qualified, professional specialists in that discipline.

Our services span architecture and commercial interior design, offering a joined-up approach and, of course, they’ll always be hard working and straight talking!

Architecture

We know that architectural projects have multiple, sometimes conflicting, objectives. They have to be user-led, compliant, financially viable, deliverable, beautiful, sustainable, and meet deadlines. We take complex briefs and make the process as straightforward as it can be for the client, delivering buildings that work hard and meet your expectations.

Interior Design

Our commercial interiors are led by making optimum use of the space; how it flows, how we capitalise on natural resources such as light and air flow, how the interior can improve the experience of those that use it by increasing productivity, lifting mood, directing customer journeys, boosting wellbeing etc. Just like the buildings themselves, interiors need to do more than look good, they need to work hard too.

  • Farrar Bamforth has delivered preliminary sketch proposals and innovative ideas for the refurbishment of my property. They exhibited promptness in conducting the property survey, generating sketches for discussions, and obtaining planning permission in a timely manner. The exceptional level of service has been maintained throughout the ongoing construction phase, with clear and effective communication between myself and the main contractor.

  • We would like to express our gratitude for giving Gessica this wonderful opportunity. This week has proved to be much more than a workplace experience. In the few days she has been with you, she has demonstrated huge strides in her confidence and in turn this has been a great catalyst for a fantastic, positive mood.
