Maxwell & Company was founded in Inverness, Scotland in 1992 by the current Managing Director, James Maxwell. Due to long term success a London office was established in 2014 by Robert Maxwell. The Practice works mainly for private clients in the residential, sporting estate and leisure sectors. It undertakes designs of new buildings, conversions and work on architecturally important protected buildings. The Practice’s philosophy is about fulfilling opportunities, adding value and delivering results which enhance people’s lives and their surroundings. Architecture is essentially an intellectual pursuit with a practical result. It is both autocratic and democratic, requiring the skills of individuals collectively employed.
