The Latchmere House Partnership
James Clague Architects is proud to be part of the Latchmere House Partnership — a collaborative group of architects, engineers and property professionals working together under one roof in Canterbury. The partnership brings together complementary expertise so clients benefit from joined-up thinking, smoother projects and a genuinely holistic approach to building design, planning and engineering.

About the Latchmere House Partnership
The Latchmere House Partnership brings together like-minded professional practices based within the beautifully restored Latchmere House in Canterbury. Rather than being a single firm, it is a partnership of specialists who share a collaborative way of working and a commitment to high-quality building design, conservation and engineering.
Within the partnership you will find experienced architects, structural and civil engineers, interior designers, surveyors and property consultants, all working closely together. By being located in the same building, communication is easier, ideas are shared more naturally, and clients benefit from a genuine team approach.
Whether a project involves listed buildings, heritage properties, new homes or commercial development, the partnership creates the right blend of skills from the outset.

Why this matters to our clients
At James Clague Architects, we believe that great architecture does not exist in isolation. A successful building project depends on a coordinated process that brings together designers, planners, engineers and specialists from the earliest stages. Being part of the Latchmere House Partnership gives our clients access to this breadth of expertise without the need to source separate consultants independently.
For clients, this means:
- Efficiency and clarity – better alignment of design, planning and technical inputs from day one, reducing delays and avoiding duplication of effort.
- Comprehensive service delivery – from initial site and land analysis, through planning and design, to structural engineering, surveying and interior architecture, all underpinned by a shared commitment to quality.
- Single-point collaboration – clients benefit from coordinated project management and clear lines of communication, simplifying decision-making and enhancing the delivery of outcomes.
- Enhanced value – the partnership model encourages shared understanding of project goals, enabling practical and cost-effective solutions that respect both design intent and regulatory requirements.
In essence, through the Latchmere House Partnership, James Clague Architects can offer a wider, more integrated service that meets the complex needs of contemporary architectural and property projects with greater efficiency, coherence and client satisfaction.
Our team of specialist architects offer a completely free and no-obligation telephone consultation to discuss your project, explain the process and how we can help.
