Ian Watts

Design Director

I founded this practice with a clear purpose: to bridge the gap between design and commercial strategy. Over the years, I noticed a recurring issue in the industry — design consultancies, project managers, and quantity surveyors often work in silos. While each discipline brings value, this fragmented approach limits their ability to truly understand and support the commercial goals of their clients.

I wanted to change that.

My background in design is rooted in a passion for creating spaces that are visually compelling, but I’ve always believed that great design should also deliver tangible business results. That’s why my practice is built on the principle of integration — combining aesthetic excellence with a deep understanding of commercial performance.

From the outset of every project, I work closely with clients to understand their business objectives. Whether it’s driving footfall, improving operational flow, or enhancing brand perception, I ensure that every design decision contributes to their success. For me, it’s not just about how a space looks — it’s about how it works, and what it achieves.

Design should be beautiful, yes. But it should also be smart, strategic, and commercially driven. That’s the philosophy behind everything we do.
