Ben Adams

Spear’s Review

‘Elegant contextual architecture balancing function with ... flair’ is the ethos of Ben Adams’ boutique firm. Adams knows the power of architecture more than most, as he addresses a changing world, saying urbanisation and globalisation needn’t be bad things. ‘As architects, we need to address that ... We need to have a more involved debate.’

With more than 21 years in the industry and illustrious clients, his London-based firm operates in cities as far-flung as Bucharest and Los Angeles, and projects range from bespoke West Coast homes to Nobu’s hotel in Shoreditch.
