a-project is a design practice that provides a flexible architectural service that is responsive to the complexities of contemporary life and the varied situations of the built environment and client needs. It focusses on an open approach to design problems – responding to the multiple factors that shape the process of designing – from the social, economic and physical environmental challenges to historic, material and personal narratives.
a-project approach
an architectural practice for projecting
a-project is a flexible architectural design practice that responds to the complexities of the contemporary world, unique site conditions, and client needs. We approach every design as a collaborative, open enquiry – where site constraints, economic realities, environmental challenges and cultural contexts combine to collectively shape unexpected architectural opportunities.
a-project designs at every scale - from individual homes and infill projects to large-scale urban redevelopments or extensions. We combine extensive experience in urban regeneration and place with research and innovation to unlock the full potential of every situation.

a-project model
models for projecting
a-project views design as a collaborative, iterative process that shapes how we experience spaces today and tomorrow. We approach every project as an open conversation - using design to address real-world challenges and unlock strategic possibilities.
Rather than relying on rigid formulas, we deliver flexible, adaptable design strategies. Operating as a strategic consultancy, we connect practical design and speculative research across five connected scales:
Frameworks: Strategic urban design, masterplanning, and environments
Sites: Plots, city blocks, typologies, and capacity studies
Buildings: Architecture, structures, and building forms
Spaces: Interiors, rooms, extensions, and custom details
Research: R&D, essays, publications, and exhibitions

about us
a-project was founded in December 2013 and is run by Felix Robbins.
Dr. Felix Robbins is a qualified architect with an extensive experience of architectural practice – combining an understanding of the commercial realities and complexities of large-scale urban regeneration and developer-led schemes, the built experience of private and public projects with limited budgets and resources through to a range of experimental interventions, advanced digital design processes, speculative work and design research.
the studio
a-project is based in Deptford, South East London as part of a workspace community of professional creative businesses.
The studio develops every project with a variety of working methods using a mixture of advanced digital techniques of scripted / parametric processes, physical modelling and analogue design processes - exploring contingent possibilities and opportunities as a dynamic and open enquiry for architecture in response to the specific contexts and situations of client requirements.
