What We Do

Clive Lucas, Stapleton & Partners act as architects for historic buildings and other places of historical and architectural note. Our approach begins with understanding the nature and history of the place.

We design, document, and arrange building and landscape work on behalf of our clients. We also study and report on appropriate action for significant places.

We work independently as well as in collaboration with other design firms and consultants for major projects.
