Paul Robinson Partnership

What Paul Robinson Partnership does

Paul Robinson Partnership (UK) LLP is a RIBA Chartered Architects Practice founded in 1975 and headquartered in Little Plumstead, east of Norwich, Norfolk. The firm employs approximately 15 professionals — partners, associates, architects, architectural technologists, a Building Conservation Manager, and administrative staff — and operates as a privately held UK Limited Liability Partnership under partners Simon Nicholas and Craig Liversidge. It delivers architectural design across residential, commercial, industrial, education, healthcare, leisure, holiday park, and public sector projects, with complementary Building Conservation Consultancy and non-domestic Energy Assessment services.

The core product is project-based architectural design, covering concept design, planning applications, technical detailing, contract administration, and project delivery, supplemented by 3D visualisation, master planning, interior design, and landscape design. Differentiated capabilities include heritage conservation expertise, approved non-domestic energy assessment, and Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) delivery, the latter developed in partnership with construction firms such as Munnings Construction. The technology foundation is conventional architectural practice tooling (CAD/BIM and CGI rendering for planning and marketing); no proprietary AI, platform, or software product is offered.

Revenue is generated through professional services fees quoted per project, with no publicly disclosed pricing tiers or recurring contract structure beyond multi-year engagement cadences. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct, driven by a 50-year reputation, RIBA chartered status, a documented portfolio of 70+ projects, and long-tenured client relationships — most notably a 37-year partnership with Haven Leisure Ltd. Customers span enterprise (Haven, Bourne Leisure, Richardsons Leisure, Grange Leisure, Co-op, Ryland Automotive/Rolls-Royce), government (Norfolk County Council, Great Yarmouth Borough Council, Sprowston Town Council), and individual/private developer segments across East Anglia, the West Midlands, and increasingly other UK regions including Scotland. Marketing relies on a project portfolio website, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram, with no third-party distribution or reseller channels.

Direct peers

• Ingleton Wood: East Anglia-based multi-disciplinary practice offering architecture, surveying, and interior design — comparable to PRP in regional positioning, multi-sector service scope, and SME practice scale.
• LSI Architects: UK regional architectural practice with a strong education, leisure, and residential portfolio — directly comparable to PRP in sector specialisation and project scale.
• Feilden+Mawson: Norwich-headquartered architectural practice with a long-standing East Anglia presence offering architecture, conservation, interior design, and masterplanning services — directly comparable to PRP in geography, service mix, and practice size.
• JTP (John Thompson & Partners): UK architectural practice delivering residential, masterplanning, and community projects with an emphasis on placemaking — comparable to PRP in residential and community-sector focus.
• Purcell: UK architectural practice with deep heritage and conservation specialisation — comparable to PRP's Building Conservation Consultancy capability and similar project types.

Broad incumbents

Others

• Bidwells: UK property consultancy with architecture and project management capability — already working alongside PRP on the Viking Centre project as client representative; an adjacent ecosystem participant rather than direct competitor.
• Munnings Construction: East Anglia-based construction firm partnering with PRP on Norfolk County Council SEND projects using Modern Methods of Construction — comparable through collaborative project delivery but operating on the construction rather than design side of the value chain.
