Robert Rhodes Architecture + Interiors

"Our curiosity was unbounded, we wanted to know everything about everything. How did anything we focused on become what it was? Process. We would think, talk, and draw for hours on end. We still do." - Michael Rotondi, founding partner of Morphosis and RoTo Architects Officially born in December 2009, RRA+I is a London-based studio of AIA, ARB and RIBA architects. We are motivated first and foremost by our love of old buildings, our commitment to the city and our belief that regeneration - even on the scale of the individual building - is an essential element to a sustainable future. We believe that conservation is the essence of sustainability, but we also believe that environmental conscientiousness is as much about doing things properly as it is about frugality. We believe architecture is about making simple, useful, meaningful and beautiful places and things. "...the unreasoned joy of the simple correspondence of appearance and reality... the evident rightness of things as they are, seen clearly." - Michael Benedikt, author of "For an Architecture of Reality" We have an expanding portfolio of carefully considered interventions intended to enhance the lives and the environment of all who experience them. We have a particular interest in the city, and a particular focus on residential projects, listed building works, regeneration, commercial renovation, interiors, and small-scale development. Although our previous focus has been on private residential projects, our intention is to expand into the civic, the urban and commercial sectors.
