We are Studio four point ten
Crafting Contemporary Architecture in Historic Settings
Heritage Architects in Bath
As an architectural practice with our design studio rooted in the celebrated historic setting of Bath, we have developed extensive experience working with a broad range of historic building projects. Our founding directors, Lee and Marc, bring a depth of expertise gained through leading work on sensitive and internationally significant heritage assets, including Grade I listed houses, West End theatres and even Scheduled Ancient Monuments at the very heart of the World Heritage City of Bath.
Working within historic environments demands a highly specialised skill set and a thorough understanding of heritage policy, consent processes, and technically complex design solutions. We have consistently demonstrated our ability to successfully navigate these challenges, leading the way in the delivery of exceptional, even award-winning, schemes that respond sensitively to their context while achieving ambitious architectural outcomes.
Specialists in the creative reuse of historic buildings, contemporary additions and inspired interiors.
Contemporary Interior Design
While our architectural ethos is firmly rooted in a deep appreciation of the historic built environment, we equally champion the creation of contemporary architecture within heritage settings like Bath. We aspire to deliver inspirational modern additions and adaptations that combine innovation, craftsmanship and clarity of design.
With a wealth of complimentary experience in high-end bespoke housing and the creative reuse of historic buildings around Bath, we combine conservation expertise with low-energy design and conceptual clarity to produce buildings that are bold, sustainable, and beautifully considered.
Creating spaces that are personal and poetic: responding sensitively to context, respecting the significance of heritage assets, and enriching the everyday lives of those who inhabit them.
Expertise in Heritage and Construction
We are architects with a passion for design and craftsmanship which gives us a profound understanding of the unique challenges presented when working on listed buildings and historic sites such as those in Bath. We don’t just design, we bring a maker’s expertise to every project, ensuring that each intervention respects the building’s character while enhancing its value and enjoyment in use.
Our team has delivered award-winning architecture in Bath, and it is our hands-on knowledge of traditional construction techniques, materials, and conservation principles that allows us to approach listed and historic buildings with confidence, sensitivity, and creativity.

Reasons to work with Studio four point ten architects on your upcoming heritage project
“We couldn’t recommend studio four point ten highly enough. Having worked with several architects in the past, including a large firm, there’s no doubt that we would choose studio four point ten again. Lee truly knows his craft, and his communication is impeccable. He went above and beyond to fully understand our brief, and his support was instrumental in helping us navigate a challenging planning application with a difficult council.”
