The review by Stuart Harrison highlights how the project “acknowledges cultural and architectural significance”, and we believe this to be a very accurate portrayal of what is a truly amazing feat of restoration architecture. This in-depth collaborative approach with KTA throughout the entire documentation and construction stage proves that great minds, with co-operative teamwork, creates great buildings. The building has been well received and celebrated, receiving the Victorian Architecture Medal, the George Knight Award for Heritage, and a Commendation for Public Architecture from the AIA.”

The new name for the practice reflects the existing four-year partnership of Alan O’Driscoll, Gai Palmer and Dale Simpson, and follows on from more than a decade of the three partners working together. We believe the new name and logo provides a positive, modern brand that will serve the company into the new decade – our fifth as a well-regarded structural and civil consultancy.
We are excited to announce this new change and very much look forward to continuing to work with all of our long-standing clients – with the same management, same team, same quality, and same commitment to responsive, detailed, and intelligent engineering services – but with a new name to take us into the new decade.
