An Associate at JTP, Dave has over 20 years’ experience in architectural practice, with projects covering public and private residential, student, commercial, leisure, office and hospitality, including many mixed-use schemes. He has extensive expertise with high-density urban regeneration projects and the associated technical and placemaking challenges they pose. These are often on difficult and constrained sites and range from feasibility and capacity studies to Detailed Planning Applications. As such, Dave is part of the Quality Control and Risk Management group within JTP, which monitors changing regulations and guidance within the industry.
Whilst at JTP, Dave has worked across a number of projects which have successfully achieved planning approval. These include Ferrum, Wembley South West Lands, a gateway building fronting a major new public square on the approach to Wembley Stadium; Brunel Street Works, which features a collection of high-density buildings, delivering multi-tenure development on a complex and constrained site in Canning Town; a new urban extension at Marleigh, Phase 2 on the eastern edge of Cambridge spanning town and countryside delivering 421 new homes; and the transformation of redundant industrial land into a high-density, new neighbourhood at Cheshunt Lakeside on the edge of a Country Park.
Recently, he has led the planning submissions of two alternative residential-focused schemes in southeast London on underused, brownfield sites including Devosnhire Place and Lewisham Retail Park. Devonshire Place will deliver 941 student bedrooms amenity spaces alongside 200 affordable homes and active ground-floor commercial on the Old Kent Road in Southwark. At Lewisham Retail Park, Dave has worked with the project team to create a mixed-tenure neighbourhood consisting of 682 student bedrooms, 383 co-living dwellings, 385 build-to-rent homes alongside extensive ground floor commercial spaces.
Away from the office, Dave likes to travel and is a keen triathlete. He is part of JTPs Health & Wellbeing group, champions cycle-friendly design and also set up the JTP running club – Collaborative Pacemaking.
