Jonathan Hetreed has been an environmental designer since at Cambridge in the 1970s.
After design and build work on site, he joined Feilden Clegg in 1981, becoming a partner in 1985, and working on a wide range of environmental schemes. He established Hetreed Ross Architects with Ann Ross in the late 90s to work on smaller scale projects involving occupier clients who are increasingly seeking a greener approach to their projects. Hetreed Ross are environmental architects skilled in achieving difficult consents for residential, community, commercial and education projects with new, existing and historic buildings; using low energy design, sustainable construction and appropriately simple services, we produce delightful buildings to exceed clients' expectations and make the best of these unique opportunities to improve both life and planet.
