“Galliford Try has just completed a new build £33m school in Oxford on time, within budget, to a delighted client using Corde for a one-stop design service. The joined-up approach of having all the relevant disciplines brought together under one roof has led to very efficient and coordinated delivery.”
Daryll Ifould, Building Services Manager, Galliford Try
“Corde were very quick to grasp the requirements of the project and identify key elements for delivery. They also grasped the complexities of working in the political environment of local government.”
Greg Bowman, Commissioning Officer, West Berkshire Council
“We have a marvellous school building that belies its tight footprint. Well-lit throughout and spacious, our school is a bright and wonderful place for pupils and staff alike.”
Someera Butt, Headteacher, Al Noor Primary School
Without structural engineers, a building collapses. Without building services, nothing works as intended. And without architecture, the building can have no purpose.
These three disciplines are at the heart of construction design – but many teams start with them separated, and combine them along the way. We don’t do that. By bringing together architecture, structural and services engineering from the outset, we focus on the big picture while getting the details right too.
In addition to architectural design, ADP covers a range of related services for Corde – from masterplanning to landscape architecture, interior design and heritage expertise.
AKS Ward makes up the structural and civil engineering part of Corde, contributing wide expertise and an intimate understanding of how buildings function.
With a special interest in low-carbon design, KJ Tait’s skilled engineers complete the picture by providing innovative, highly sustainable building services for our projects.
