Alex completed his architectural studies at Brighton University and the University of Westminster, qualifying as an architect in 2019. He joined Morrow + Lorraine in 2024, bringing a strong technical focus and a thoughtful design approach to the team. His professional experience spans all project stages, with a particular emphasis on mid- to large-scale commercial developments in London.

Notable projects include the redevelopment of the Grade II listed 147 Leadenhall Street and Canary Wharf’s One Westferry Circus. Alex has a keen eye for detail and extensive on-site experience, having led multiple projects from conception through to completion. Currently, Alex’s technical expertise and creative vision are being utilized on the prestigious High Holborn House project as it approaches works on site.

Alongside his architectural work, Alex is a passionate illustrator. His drawings were featured in the recent RIBA publication Drawing Attention, and he was a contributing artist to the Vanishing Points exhibition at Roca London Gallery in summer 2023.

Agata graduated from the School of Architecture and Design at the University of Brighton and went on to complete a master’s degree in architecture at The Bartlett, UCL. Originally from Poland, she moved to the UK, drawn by its creative and versatile approach to education.

During her architectural education, Agata was nominated for the RIBA Bronze Medal and was awarded the RIBA South East Student Award. These achievements reflect her strong foundation in architectural design, with a particular passion for drawing and visual storytelling.

With over six years of experience at M+L, Agata now leads interior design within the practice. Fascinated by interiors, she has developed a holistic design approach that balances atmosphere, functionality, and detail. Her work seamlessly bridges architecture and art, expressing a unique style shaped by Scandinavian minimalism, human-centred design, and a deep respect for materials. Her designs are bold yet refined, using colour, form, and narrative to create engaging, personal spaces.

Agata is currently leading the interior design for the £10 million refurbishment of High Holborn House in Central London, overseeing the transformation of its common areas.

Tony qualified as an architect from the University of Sheffield and first joined us in 2012. He worked with us for four years before leaving to work with a practice specialising in the housing sector.

We welcomed him back three years later and he’s now playing a major role in leading our housing projects and growing our business in this area. He has a breadth of experience of running projects on site and has developed his knowledge of purpose-built residential projects. With new opportunities in this sector increasing at Morrow + Lorraine he is an important part of this growth.

On his return, Tony’s first project at Morrow + Lorraine was King Street in Acton, a complex residential scheme which was part refurbishment and part new-build. Our client at King Street then brought us on board at Bombay Street, where Tony again led the project.

Alongside his work at Morrow + Lorraine, Tony is a Labour Councillor for Hackney, where his architectural skills, knowledge of public housing and interest in the built environment make him a particularly valuable voice on the Council.

Ben joined us following a first-class degree from Newcastle University. We were also interested in his hands-on experience, he spent his gap year and university holidays working for a traditional building company Jones & Fraser, on heritage buildings. This has allowed him a practical perspective on our work. In addition he had also spent six months working on master-planning, at the internationally acclaimed practice Farrells.

Ben has a naturally meticulous approach and an eye for detail, which is fundamental to our work at Morrow + Lorraine. Since joining as an architectural assistant his ability to exceed and bring rigour to his approach has enabled him to be involved with prestigious projects, such as the refurbishment at 23 Queen Anne Street.

He was part of the team that provided a feasibility study for an exciting, triple-height basement, close to Piccadilly in London. He was also in the project team for the tender package of a refurbishment of a reception area and offices at 88 Wood Street.

Frank is excited by the possibilities of 3D modelling, visualisation and imaging, and he also has a strong interest in graphics. He is exploring how we use technology to push our designs and improve communications with our clients, partners and stakeholders. He studied at the Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL, before taking a position at Heatherwick Studio and at DSP Architecture.

Frank is particularly drawn to the early stages of our projects, utilising 3D technology as a powerful design tool for concept design, pre-application and planning. He played a major part in developing the concept for Clifftops, one of our most sensitive projects on a stretch of the Jurassic Coast, which successfully gained planning approval. This is a UNESCO World Heritage site, between two listed castles and above a Site of Special Scientific Interest. Five new holiday lodges nestle in the landscape, maximising sea views and complementing the rugged surroundings.

Frank has recently completed work on a 3D model for a large commercial building, although this work is specific to the client and the context, his work here has the potential to inform our approach to other equally complex projects. With every element of a design, he adds to our digital knowledge base, enabling solutions for future projects.

Outside of his work at Morrow + Lorraine, he has undertaken several home-refurbishment projects, putting his design skills to the test in a very different context.

Gary joins Morrow + Lorraine with a wealth of mixed-use design experience, from initial concept planning through to detailed, technical stages, and construction, gained in over 25 years in practice.

Gary was previously an Associate at JTP where he was responsible for the delivery of complex, large-scale mixed-use developments such as Lewisham Exchange. Additionally, he led the delivery of residential developments on former colliery sites in Askern and Doncaster, as well as notably working with Sheffield City Council to develop a new range of sustainable, energy-efficient council housing, including the retention and renovation of historic buildings.

He has also been involved in the delivery of numerous large-scale master planning projects in China, delivering economically, socially, and environmentally balanced master plans for Liubu Eco-Tourism Complex and Luzhou Wine City.

His primary objective in practice is to ensure the highest level of architectural design and placemaking while ensuring successful project delivery. He is currently demonstrating these well-refined expertise within the 28 St George Street team as they work towards Stage 4 completion.

Away from the office, Gary enjoys cycling, growing his own veg, and cooking, especially with any homegrown produce!

As Morrow + Lorraine grows, our most experienced staff are starting to take on more strategic roles. So, as well as his project-based role, Gavin is now focusing on developing our relationships with our existing clients and looking at new business opportunities. This is all part of our drive to focus on the growth of the practice and look to the future.

On the project side, Gavin is the lead architect for our prestigious project at Buckingham Palace Road. He was first involved in the retail part of the project when he joined us in 2012. When a new phase was announced more recently, he was instrumental in winning the pitch for Morrow + Lorraine. With the project secured, it was natural to make him the head of the team.

With many family members working in the construction industry, Gavin was familiar with construction sites long before he became an architect. He studied at Queen’s University Belfast and worked at two Belfast-based practices – Kennedy Fitzgerald and Neil Mathews – before joining Morrow + Lorraine.

Gregory has been a valued member of the Morrow + Lorraine team for five years. Qualifying as an Architect in 2021, he has since undertook the role of Project Lead on several of our schemes in both the commercial and residential sectors, mainly focusing on RIBA Stages 3 to 5

Although most experienced with latter project stages, Gregory has contributed to the earlier stages of projects on many occasions. In this capacity he has assisted in the development of design concepts and the production of planning documentation.

As project lead, Gregory develops positive working relationships with external consultants, clients, and contractors alike. His skills in BIM support the coordination of projects, and his talent for writing helps to produce compelling design narratives to foster positive discussions with planning authorities.

During his time here and in previous practices, Gregory has worked within several sectors including commercial, retail, residential, and leisure. Such projects have included a large-scale mixed-use development in the Adriatic, an extensive refurbishment and extension of an English Football League stadium, and several multi-unit residential developments in the UK.

Gregory is actively involved in practice culture. Over the years he has contributed to our calendar of social events with enthusiasm, including the organisation of walking tours, museum visits, and the creator of excellent playlists as the established office DJ.

As practice manager at Morrow + Lorraine, Helen works closely with the directors across all aspects of practice operations, assisting in developing and implementing company policies and strategies. She firmly believes that the foundation to effective delivery of project related services lies in efficient and robust practice systems.

Helen originally spent one year studying Architecture at Leeds before following her passion for food and switching to an HND in Hotel and Catering Management. However, her interest in design saw her career develop within the design and architecture industry.

Before joining Morrow + Lorraine, Helen spent 14 years as finance and practice manager at Dixon Jones and therefore brought with her a wealth of experience in practice administration.

She has also worked at the RIBA as special projects manager and head of exhibitions, project manager at London Open House, and account manager at Caro Communications.

Will is one of the design leads within the practice and is therefore responsible for the design decisions on a scheme and ensures excellence in all elements. He has a careful and thoughtful approach which aligns with the principles of the practice.

Morrow + Lorraine is known for giving existing buildings a new lease of life and maximising their potential. Will was design lead for one of our largest projects of this type – the extensive refurbishment of Buckingham Palace Road, which focused on adding value and space (in the form of three additional storeys). At a different end of the spectrum in terms of scale, he led the planning application for the refurbishment and extension of Gilroy House, an elegant but neglected 1930s building.

Will studied at the Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL, and then worked at Heatherwick Studio in Hong Kong and in London. From there he moved to Eric Parry Architects, where, as well as working in the London office, he was involved in establishing an office in Singapore. He joined Morrow + Lorraine in 2017.
