Robert’s previous work included being lead architect working through all project stages on new schools and school extensions, ranging from Primary Schools to specialist accommodation at High Schools. Work on Special Needs Schools was also a particular interest, as designer for major extensions, refurbishments and new builds. He also worked on extensions and refurbishments of public libraries, mental health daycare facilities, and customer service centres. Robert also spent several years working on the refurbishment of high-rise housing for a housing association, following the implementation of the Building Safety Act.

Early in his career Robert worked for three years in the former East Germany shortly after German reunification, working on a range of industrial and domestic projects. His once fluent German is now a little rusty!
