Burd Haward Architects (BHA) is an award-winning design-led RIBA Chartered Architectural Practice. Set up by Catherine Burd & Buddy Haward in 1998, the practice has developed a reputation for making carefully crafted, authentic, sustainable buildings and spaces: our work has gained critical acclaim for its conceptual clarity, structural simplicity and rigorous approach to material and detail.

 

We work across a diverse range of building types and scales, from housing, and schools to ecclesiastical and community spaces. Much of our work comprises adaptive reuse and retrofit, and many of our projects are located in historically significant, environmentally sensitive or listed landscape locations and involve interventions to Grade I & Grade II* listed buildings. Catherine Burd is an accredited specialist conservation architect.

 

We are adept at leading the design process from inception to completion and work closely with our clients, local authorities and other design & construction professionals to develop solutions that make the most of all available opportunities. We are able communicators and creative, analytical problem solvers, and place high value on maintaining excellent constructive working relationships. As a small practice Catherine and Buddy are closely involved at all stages of all projects, well supported by a flexible and experienced team.
