It's about listening to our clients and understanding their vision

Welcome to Ford Gilpin Riley Architects

At FGR Architects Exeter we recognise that architecture has the power to transform. We aim to produce solutions that are functional and sustainable, inspirational and beautiful, but which also meet the practicalities of buildability, timescale and budget.

Although we are Devon Architects we operate throughout the Westcountry. Our buildings are noted for their bright, airy interiors, dynamic spaces and generous use of natural light and ventilation, which promote calm, welcome and comfort for their users.

Good buildings are the result of commitment and communication, so one of the most important aspects of our job is to fully understand our client’s requirements. We do not have a house style and each design is a response to context and brief, with the end-user at the heart of our design process. We always look to produce solutions which limit energy use and offer inclusivity for all. To find out more contact FGR Architects Exeter today.

Designs which respond to site opportunities, orientation and views, link dynamic interiors with outside spaces, and have low-energy credentials.
