About

Hampson Architects, founded by the respected Chartered Architect Andy Parsons, brings a wealth of architectural expertise rooted in Andy's extensive career since 1999. Beginning with a design-focused practice in Brighton and later contributing to a prominent London-based firm, Andy integrated experiences in one-off homes and large-scale regeneration projects, cultivating a passion for residential-led architecture.

In 2010, Andy established Yelo Architects, a well respected mid-sized practice in Brighton that were the architects for over 500 projects, including the design of thousands of homes and garnering numerous awards. While expanding its influence from the South East to encompass the entire UK and Europe, Andy noticed a shift away from direct project involvement within the larger practice. This realisation led to the formation of Hampson Architects, emphasising a personalised, high-quality service under Andy's direct leadership, alongside a dedicated small team.

Based in Brighton, Hampson Architects primarily operates in the South East but actively engages in projects across London and the Lake District. Leveraging cutting-edge technology, we operate as a remote, fully paperless entity, crafting all new build projects as intricate 3D models, offering clients the unique experience of Virtual Reality visualisation.

Why Hampson? The legacy of Reginald Hampson, Andy's grandfather and a notable mechanic, engineer, and inventor, serves as an inspiration for Andy's architectural journey. Reviving the connection to the Hampson name, Andy pays homage to his grandfather's influence on his path to becoming the accomplished architect he is today.

At Hampson Architects, our specialisation lies in securing planning consents for impeccably designed buildings. We prioritise a comprehensive understanding of planning policy and law, enabling us to provide early-stage guidance to our clients on potential planning outcomes. Our commitment to delivering expert knowledge sets us apart, ensuring each project receives the attention to detail and strategic planning it deserves.
