AAP. An accomplished practice.

We pride ourselves on the unique and talented architectural professionals who make up our business, which is why we chose to become an employee ownership trust – one of the first employee-owned practices in Surrey.

The future of the business is in all of our hands as we apply our enthusiasm and commitment in equal measure, and it’s our way of saying thank you to a team who have played a significant role in the continued scale and success of the company.

With this team and culture in place, we are confident in tackling any project, however large or complex. You can meet our humble heroes further down the page. If you would like to talk to us about a residential, commercial or regenerative project, get in touch here.

Bert founded AAP as a place for people to thrive and to feel appreciated. When our workplace flourishes, our client work excels.
