They were the designers of the £7.6 million refurbishment of the Almeida Theatre, described by The Guardian's Jonathan Glancey on its opening in 2003 as "likely to be a crowd-puller in its own right."[7] and by The Independent as "splendidly refurbished".[8]

They won the contract for the £19.8m Hall for Cornwall renovation project following a competitive tender. This was due to complete in 2020,[9] although the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has caused this to slip to 2021.[10][11]
