Our creative team work collaboratively in an open plan office with views over the open countryside and the Truro River.
The practice was formed in 2004 by the amalgamation of the Philip Desmonde Partnership (Structural, Civil, Water and Environmental Engineers) with the Helston office of the Barlow Schofield Partnership (Chartered Architects) under the direction of Roger Green to form a new, multidisciplinary building design consultancy.
In 2018 PDPG was aquired by a new management team and is planning to relaunch its broader range of services under a new company name in 2020.
Paul Frondella, project architect, formerly of Sheppard Robson Architects and ARUPS was appointed as the new Managing Director in 2018 bringing a wealth of international and mixed use project experience.
Paul and has been joined on the Board of Directors by David Hollingsworth, Engineering Director who is reknowned for his work on major Ministry of Defence Projects and with his team has worked on defence and Crown projects across the country for the last twenty years.
The Management team is consolidated by Elizabeth Staveley, Land Architect and Regeneration Consultant who has broad range of experience in prestigious leisure and large scale coastal regeneration and residential projects.
A team of 25 professional designers are managed by Associates: Dean Benson (Architect), Jane Bucknall (Structural Engineer) and Matthew Terrell (Conservation Architect).
Many of the team are highly skilled in specialist sectors, are security cleared and are trained and experienced at working in complex, high security environments.
