Foundry is a development studio formed to bring a creative, adaptable and commercially rigorous approach to development. We work across multiple sectors including residential, commercial, natural capital and public sector projects.
Our passion is to find the best outcomes that maximise value for our partners, investments, the people and communities our projects will serve.
We work as an extension of your team from day one.
Depending on what a project needs, Foundry acts as Development Manager, Development Partner or Advisor, and often all three with our role evolving as yours does.
Our depth of technical experience means Foundry turns opportunities into well-considered, well-designed and commercially successful schemes.
Foundry's edge: a commercially focused architect embedded in every project from the beginning, bringing design and commercial thinking together from the outset.
Embedding senior partners from inception through to delivery, assembling teams, making the calls that matter at every stage.
Where the opportunity is right, Foundry goes further — full commercial commitment alongside landowners, investors and operators.
Foundry provides strategic intelligence throughout the project, often at the start of a wider engagement.
Design and commercial decisions, made together at the right time.
How Foundry brings integrated thinking into the development lifecycle.
Our founders bring over 30 years of senior development experience between them, including more than two decades of combined client-side experience across residential-led mixed-use, commercial, industrial, life science and public sector work across the UK and internationally. Natural capital is an active and growing area of focus for the studio. Together they bring integrated design-led and commercial thinking to every project.
High-density regeneration, estate transformation and complex JV structures.
Logistics, mid-tech and life science — acquisition through forward funding and delivery.
Estate review and development strategy for complex public and institutional portfolios.
Foundry was built for clients who want more than delivery. Brought in early, trusted to challenge as well as execute, and given room to bring forward opportunities the brief has not yet considered.
Contributing ideas, not just executing a brief.
Foundry welcomes conversations at any stage, whether considering a site, mid-way through a process that has stalled or holding a consent that is not performing as it should.
