Wellspace Architects

About us

Our vision is to create happier and healthier lives

1 in 4 people suffer from mental health issues

One of the biggest factor is the environment we  are in…

We spend 90% of our time indoors and 65% of this is in our own homes. Poor housing costs the NHS £1.4B per year!

The pandemic has only exaggerated the impact on people’s physical and mental health due to poor living conditions. Much of the existing housing stock out of the 29 million in the UK is not designed with health and wellbeing in mind.
