About us
Allford Hall Monaghan Morris is an employee-owned architecture practice founded in 1989. It has offices in London, Bristol, Oklahoma City, and Madrid, and works across the UK and around the world on projects across sectors and scales, from a transformative mixed-use masterplan to a small therapeutic space for a charity. The practice won the RIBA Stirling Prize for Burntwood School in 2015 and has won many other awards and critical acclaim for its work over the last thirty years.
Our research-led and collaborative way of working offers a friendly and supportive environment for personal and professional development, allowing each person to take on individual areas of responsibility. Our teams do not specialise by sector or work stage; instead, team size and structure create the sense of a collection of like-minded smaller studios working within our shared spaces.

This is supported by formal and informal training and knowledge sharing, extensive in-house technical consultancy, and support and mentoring for those looking to complete formal qualifications or develop their skills.
Everyone at AHMM has access to a range of benefits that support their personal and professional lives and provide additional help when it’s needed.
