In 1991 he established his own practice. In 2003 the practice completed Brick Leaf House in Hampstead, North London, which received a RIBA Award[2] and a Civic Trust Award, and became the first private building to reach the mid-list of the UK Stirling Prize. Building Design hailed Brick Leaf House as "a statement of real capacity" and in 2004 honoured the practice with the Building Design Architect of the Year Award. Grand Designs presenter Kevin McCloud chose Brick Leaf House as one of his "twenty perfect houses."[3]

The practice’s work ranged from private houses and apartment buildings through to arts, educational, commercial buildings and interiors.
