RHA is a specialist Architectural Design practice dedicated to housing developers.
Our work focuses on one thing: technical excellence.
We achieve this by:
● Providing clear, robust technical guidance

We provide a level of precision and reliability that supports smoother delivery, reduced on-site risk, and stronger project outcomes.
Leadership with deep technical and development experience
RHA is led by directors whose backgrounds combine architectural technical expertise with hands-on experience working alongside national and regional housing developers. Their leadership shapes the practice’s premium, developer-focused approach and ensures every project benefits from senior-level insight.

I am a Chartered Architectural Technologist with over 14 years’ experience in residential design, development, and delivery across both bespoke high-end homes and large-scale national housing portfolios.
For 10 years, I led the projects team and standard housing portfolio for a top 10 national housebuilder, developing house type strategies, coordinating multidisciplinary teams, and ensuring design quality, technical compliance, and commercial viability across multiple sites.
I began my career in high‑end residential architectural interior design, working on bespoke homes and one‑off developments between 6,000 and 15,000 sq ft. It was here that I developed my love for design and space planning, and where I learned the importance of usability, flow, and the small details that make a home work for the people living in it.

I’ve spent over 25 years in housebuilding, starting in architectural technology and growing into senior technical leadership. What’s kept me motivated is the mix of design, detail and problem-solving, and the chance to keep improving how we build the homes we live in.
In my previous role as Group Technical Director for a top developer, I led teams who shaped our housing portfolio, set technical standards and supported the business through major changes - like the movement to timber frame, the introduction of renewable technologies & set the specification for numerous major regulation changes.
I’ve been closely involved across the industry through NHBC, HBF, the Structural Timber Association and Future Homes Hub groups, I've always enjoyed being part of the conversations that push standards forward.
Housing development is becoming increasingly complex, shaped by evolving regulations, rising performance expectations, and the transition to low-carbon construction.
RHA exists to help developers navigate this landscape with confidence. We produce robust technical working drawing packages and provide future-focused consultancy that ensures every home you build is compliant, coordinated, and ready for the next generation of standards.
Our team brings deep experience and technical excellence in residential design, Building Regulations, and construction detailing. We work closely with developers, consultants, and contractors to ensure every detail - from junctions and materials to renewable technologies and specifications - is fully resolved and aligned with regulatory requirements.
Our expertise spans:
● Technical working drawing packages
● Building Regulations compliance
● Future Homes Standard advice
● Renewable and low-carbon technology integration
● Construction specification development
● Smart home and future-proofing strategies
We prioritise accuracy, coordination, and clarity. Every drawing, detail, and specification is produced with buildability and compliance at its core. We communicate clearly, deliver consistently, and integrate seamlessly with your wider project team. Our approach to technical excellence reduces uncertainty, minimises RFIs, and supports efficient construction on site.
The shift toward low-carbon, high-performance homes is reshaping the industry. RHA is committed to helping developers stay ahead - whether through Future Homes Standard guidance, renewable technology advice, or future-proofed construction specifications. We ensure your developments are not only compliant today but ready for the expectations of tomorrow.
