Seymour & Bainbridge
CHARTERED ARCHITECTS
ABOUT US
Seymour & Bainbridge is an architectural practice, based in Winchester, specialising in work to historic and ecclesiastical buildings. The practice was established in 1997 by Louise Bainbridge and Gary Seymour. Since that time, the practice has earned a reputation and won awards for sensitively detailed and thoughtfully executed projects throughout the south of England.
All practice members are experienced in working on new, existing and historic buildings. We are able to deliver sensitive adaptions and imaginative interventions in a historic context.
Our philosophy is one of minimal intervention to maintain the integrity of the original construction. Where additions or alterations are required, the practice will consider a range of options, including contemporary solutions, making use of carefully detailed modern materials.
