As a lover of both arts and science, Nicholas had architecture in his sights from an early age. He was, and continues to be, fascinated by the marriage of social structures and physical three dimensional problems which he sees as a constantly evolving question which he never gets bored of improving. Nicholas is immersed in problem solving from the macro of the masterplanning of cities to the micro detailed design of furniture.

Following an education in architecture at the University of Bath, he then gained extensive experience across a number of sectors at Richard Rogers, SOM and ORMS, founding Nicholas Burwell Architects in 1999.

Nicholas has built the practice on the principles of approaching each project with an open mind, an appetite for complex problem solving and the importance of understanding the impact of change on the way clients use spaces in which they live, learn and work.

He is a recognised thought leader in the design of teaching and learning environments, a frequent speaker at events and conferences, and works with organisations throughout the UK to deliver award-winning projects.
