200: Making Profit with Purpose with Richard Holland & Jonathan Harvey of Holland Harvey Architects

Business of Architecture UK Podcast

Today I have the pleasure of speaking with Richard Holland and Jonathan Harvey, founders of Holland Harvey Architects.

The practice is on a mission to celebrate the everyday through design. It is committed to high environmental and social impact standards, galvanized through its status as a Certified B Corporation. The studio creates extraordinary sustainable buildings and interiors across the UK and abroad.

Richard’s focus within the studio is creating aspirational hospitality environments, recently having completed Inhabit Hotels' second site at Queen’s Gardens in London’s Paddington, alongside several other ongoing hotel refurbishment projects.

He sees London as the world’s largest refurbishment project, which fuels his passion for the conservation and adaptive reuse of existing and historic buildings – breathing new life into the unloved.

Jonathan studied architecture at The Bartlett, University College London, Sheffield School of Architecture, as well as Westminster University. During his early career, Jonathan worked with Michael and Henry Squire at Squire and Partners as well as for Michaelis Boyd Associates, working on a range of high-profile commercial and residential projects.

During his time both at university and in his early career, Jonathan found a passion for the role the architect can play in magnifying social impact. He founded ‘Free Architecture’, a social enterprise that facilitates pro bono design to the third sector.

Alongside running Holland Harvey, Jonathan commits actively to the academic sphere by teaching Architecture at the University of the Creative Arts in Canterbury.”
