Atelier 88 is a dedicated & creative architecture practice based in Birmingham & Shrewsbury. Our team has a huge & varied range of creativity, design expertise, technical knowledge and experience.
Whatever the nature of the project, we can help define your vision into a clear design that works for you.
Our vision
People are at the heart of architecture and good design can have an enormous impact on how we live. Our focus is on working collaboratively with our clients to understand what exactly what they need and formulating coherent and sensitive design responses to translate that vision into a reality.
We are highly creative with a passion for design and a strong commitment to producing high quality architecture. We work on a wide range of projects and have extensive experience in many areas, from domestic extensions and private residential alterations, through to large-scale city centre apartment buildings, master planning and urban regeneration.
Through this, we bring our unique perspective to every project. All of our design work is bespoke and tailored to meet the needs of the client and the particular challenges of the project. We never produce the same design twice. Our approach is contextutal, and we strive to develop a distinctive design language for every project. This often involves drawing influence from a particular characteristic of the site or its immediate surroundings to produce buildings that truly belong in the place where they are built, whether they are in a rural, urban or suburban location.
whatever the nature or size of your project, we would be happy to explore it with you, so please feel free to get in touch to arrange a free initial consultation.


‘I have worked with Martin for many years across numerous large scale city centre residential development schemes. He is a fantastic professional and a very talented Architect. His attention to detail, creative ability and unwavering professionalism set him apart from his peers. I would, without hesitation, recommend Martin for any of your Architectural and design requirements’.
Eamonn Minihane, Director, Hanehouse Developments
‘Martin brought my rough ideas to life with a set of beautiful drawings. He turned the space that once was a small utility room into a cavernous open plan kitchen extension. Japanese Shou Sugi Ban cladding and a huge square picture window added a slick contemporary addition to my end of terrace house. I am absolutely thrilled with the result and it exceeded my expectations’
