About John Bowmer
London practice (established 2014) working mostly on listed terraced houses of the mid to late Georgian period, mostly listed Grade II
Other DesignerI trained at the Royal College of Art, London before joining the office of James Stirling and Michael Wilford where I worked on projects in Europe and Asia.
More recently I have worked on UK projects focusing on listed buildings in London and the Home Counties. While working at Chris Dyson Architects LLP I worked on a wide range of domestic refurbishment and extension projects culminating in a private house in Wapping which won the 2014 AJ Small Project of the Year Award and 'Best Housing Development 1-5 Units' category of the 2014 Brick Awards.
I established my own practice in London in 2014 continuing my work on listed houses and in particular terraced houses of the mid to late Georgian period, mostly listed Grade II.
