With Practical Completion very much on the horizon, our Lead Architect Simon Timperley visited the Shotton Youth Centre (or SYC as it will be known) for the initial snagging inspection.

The D3A team have travelled to Derbyshire today for the Chinley & Buxworth Community Centre Pre-Start Meeting.

Construction of Shotton Community Outreach Youth Hub is now well underway and this week the d3a team made a very special site visit.

d3a’s Architects have been producing some exciting designs for the Shotton Community Outreach Youth Hub and earlier this month the team behind the project received the great news that they'd been awarded a Youth Investment Fund grant of over £1.3 million.

Our Architectural team have been busy preparing designs for a sustainable, low energy Community Youth Hub in Co. Durham.

Great news for our client Chinley, Buxworth and Brownside Community Association. They have been successful with their National Lottery Bid and secured £490,000 towards their new Community Centre!

We are thrilled to be able to continue working with the Yorkshire North and East Methodist District in their mission to become Net Zero.

From last week's timber frame to this week's underfloor heating. Progress at Lowes Barn Community Centre continues.

The d3a Architectural Team were recently on site at Lowes Barn to see the completion of the timber frame structure, which includes a double height top lit atrium.

Well done to the Citizens House team who have been awarded the County Durham Kitemark in recognition of their commitment to volunteering activities.

LOWES BARN PROGRESS: Things are taking shape.

The new Lowes Barn Community Centre is now one step closer following the initial ‘Ground Breaking’ event which took place on Saturday 18th June.

Our industry very nearly lost Brad's talents to the stage - as he considered treading the boards at drama school - but fortunately, the world of mechanical engineering won the day.

Geoff & Brad's road trip ended up in Scarborough yesterday. As part of their site visit they even got to take in a show at the Stephen Joseph Theatre.

d3associates have been busy preparing options for decarbonising 30 community led buildings in Richmondshire and Scarborough.

As Senior Design Engineer and fully qualified Heat Networks Consultant, David has worked on energy projects varying from global decarbonisation strategies to inner city district energy schemes.

Geoff is a highly skilled Engineer and Project Manager, with a Masters in renewable energy.

When Plan A can't happen, d3associates can be relied on to deliver a successful Plan B.

As a Chartered Architect Mike brings a wealth of knowledge to the team, along with a wide range of design and management skills.

Another decarbonisation project underway, this time creating option plans for 30 community-led buildings in North Yorkshire – looking forward to the site visits!
