The practice is run by Gareth Williams-Wynn.
The visionary behind the practice, Gareth’s journey began in Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) in the late 50s, where he grew up on a farm nestled in the northern region of the country. Being quite a distance away from the nearest town, Gareth and his sisters were sent to boarding school from the age of 5. However, each time they returned home during school holidays, they would discover that their resourceful mother had made changes to the house. Whether it was moving the front door, adding a studio, renovating rooms, or even rearranging furniture, their home was in a constant state of transformation.
This environment of perpetual change nurtured Gareth’s passion for art, architecture, and interior design from an early age. After completing his education, Gareth embarked on a career in Engineering, specializing in motor car part design. For many years, he dedicated his time to the drawing board and spent time in manufacturing plants designing tooling, honing his skills and gaining valuable experience. However, in 1990, driven by an undeniable calling, Gareth made a bold decision to focus solely on architecture, and he hasn’t looked back since.
