France + Associates are a forward-thinking and enthusiastic registered architectural practice based in Huddersfield. We are involved with clients in a variety of sectors, covering high end luxury residential developments, residential sites, commercial and retail projects, managing such projects both in early design stages right through to onsite involvement throughout the UK.Regardless of sector or size of project, we offer a professional yet friendly service, tailoring our approach to the project in response to the brief, which may have design, cost or other constraints.Our ability to interpret a client’s brief and aspiration to manage the project through a complex process, makes France and Associates the ideal architectural practice to design and manage your new home, residential development or other project.Our expertise is in designing bespoke homes for individuals who have suffered catastrophic injuries and are often appointed by solicitors on behalf of their clients to implement proposals put forward by expert witnesses, based on our expertise in inclusive design.In comparison to competitor “Disability Architects”, we have gained a reputation for incorporating inclusive design within a home and moving away from clinical finishes as is customarily found with other “disability architects” on the market.As a result, we work for numerous solicitors on a national basis, working alongside care staff, occupational therapists and the immediate family, to put forward a design which takes both the expert’s and the claimant\'s views into account, to implement the adaptations on site.We have a strong core of professional and qualified staff, as well as trusted partners to facilitate collaboration on larger projects or when specific expertise is required.
