He is also an advocate for improving mental health in architecture and the built environment.  For the last 13 years he has been based in London working on a range of education, cultural and residential sector projects, including RIBA East Shortlisted Creek Cabin, a flood resilient home in the Suffolk Broads AONB, the National Maritime Museum Conservation Centre and an award-winning, multi-million pound campus redevelopment for the University of Hertfordshire.  Rob is working on a series of projects in London, including a substantial retrofit of a Grade II listed building in Bayswater and a net zero entrance building for a school in Dulwich.  

Why do you think the British Homes Awards are important? How to they stand out against other awards in the industry? 

BHA's are a brilliant way to celebrate the significant amount of work it takes to create high quality architecture. I really love the British Homes Awards as they celebrate the project, rather than a specific person within the team. It feels like the awards acknowledge the end result is the work of many differing professionals and people.
