Core offering

ArkleBoyce Architects Ltd is a UK RIBA chartered architectural practice that designs and delivers building projects from concept through completion across residential, commercial, heritage and community sectors. Core services include new-build design, refurbishment and extension work, sensitive heritage restoration of listed buildings, and interior design, with particular depth in sustainable design, conservation area planning, and Passivhaus-aligned retrofit.

Product overview

ArkleBoyce Architects Ltd operates as a single unified architectural practice offering comprehensive design services. The practice does not operate a platform-plus-modules architecture but rather provides integrated architectural services across five main project categories: Residential Architecture Services (new-build, refurbishments, extensions), Commercial Architecture Services (offices, retail, mixed-use), Heritage and Conservation Services (listed building restoration), Leisure and Community Architecture (farm shops, restaurants, community facilities), and One-off Houses (bespoke private dwellings). Projects span from initial concept through to completion, serving private and public sector clients throughout the UK with offices in Leeds and London.

Broad incumbents

• Foster + Partners: Global UK-headquartered architectural practice operating across commercial, residential, heritage and masterplanning sectors; broader incumbent representing the upper-end competitive context for design-led UK practices targeting high-profile commissions.
• AHMM (Allford Hall Monaghan Morris): Major UK architectural practice with strong commercial, office refurbishment and mixed-use portfolio including Victorian building adaptive reuse (e.g., Workspace Group-type schemes); broader incumbent that competes with ArkleBoyce for commercial and refurbishment commissions.

Direct peers

• Fletcher Priest Architects: London-based practice with strong mixed-use, commercial and conservation portfolio; co-founder Graham Boyce previously worked there as associate on the £160m Watermark Place scheme, making this a directly comparable peer in heritage/sensitive-context work and large mixed-use schemes.
• FaulknerBrowns Architects: Newcastle/Northern England practice with extensive civic, masterplanning and commercial portfolio; co-founder James Arkle previously worked there on the £200m Doncaster Civic Quarter, making this a closely comparable peer in civic/commercial work and Northern UK regional presence.
• Purcell Architecture: UK heritage and conservation architecture practice with deep listed-building, ecclesiastical and adaptive reuse expertise; comparable peer for heritage/restoration work where ArkleBoyce positions its specialist retrofit and conservation credentials.
• Studio Partington: Small award-winning UK practice focused on residential, heritage and conservation architecture with RIBA recognition; closely comparable peer in size, residential/heritage sector mix and design-led approach.
• Chris Dyson Architects: Small London-based practice specialising in conservation, listed-building work and heritage residential projects; comparable peer because associate Jack Rowlinson previously worked there and the firm's design-led, heritage-focused practice profile closely mirrors ArkleBoyce's niche.
• Levitt Bernstein: Mid-sized UK practice with strong residential, community and public-sector portfolio including council housing and community buildings; directly comparable for ArkleBoyce's community/council work (Cumberland Council, St Gemma's Hospice).
• Cartwright Pickard Architects: Mid-sized UK architectural practice with strong residential, commercial and masterplanning portfolio; co-founder James Arkle previously worked there and delivered award-winning civic projects, making this a directly comparable peer in scale, sector mix and design approach.
• Donald Insall Associates: UK specialist heritage and conservation architecture practice working on listed buildings, historic estates and sensitive contexts; directly comparable to ArkleBoyce's conservation heritage services and RIBA Conservation Architect capability.
