We studied at De Montfort University together, and then we both worked at Foster+Partners. We set up Collingridge And Smith Architects off the back of a Kiwi client who wanted something looking at in London. Phil was already in Auckland, having built a house, and Graham hadjust decided to move to the Lake District, where he was renovating a 300 year old house, and expecting a baby. On the basis that Staveley was closer to London than Auckland we set up the company in March 2012: Graham had a daughter the next day, and we submitted our first planning application.
