National architectural practice almost triples Birmingham office space

National architectural practice Corstorphine + Wright has upgraded its Birmingham office space to meet rising demand for its services.

The company, which is headquartered in Warwick, will remain at Alpha Works and has taken a suite almost triple the size of its previous space.

This is the third space that Corstorphine + Wright has occupied at Alpha Works, the serviced offices within Alpha Tower.

Simon Jones, director, said: “In just three years, we’ve moved from a two-person office in the Jewellery Quarter, to a six-person, then a 10-person and now a 20-person office.

“Our new office includes a breakout space and being in a serviced office environment gives us the flexibility to increase our space in line with our growing requirement. This reflects the level of activity that we’re seeing in central Birmingham and the number of projects that we’re winning.”

Corstorphine + Wright has around 150 staff based in their Midlands offices in Warwick, Stourbridge and Alpha Tower.

The firm currently has 122 active projects in Birmingham and the wider West Midlands across the residential, education and commercial sectors. This includes The Forum, Pershore Street, Arden Gate, Lunar Rise, Bishopsgate, and Dandara apartment schemes.

Mike Lampard, Corstorphine + Wright, said: “The heart of our business is based in the Midlands which allows us to easily collaborate across offices as well as providing a national coverage. We continue to win work across all sectors and in Birmingham city centre, the wider West Midlands region and across the country. The flexibility of the space here enables us to accommodate growth as we win work.”
