Statement

Eldridge Smerin was established in 1998. Architect Nick Eldridge was an associate of Sir Norman Foster, working on projects in London and in Nimes. He later became Design Director at John McAslan and Partners for projects in London, Italy and Turkey. The practice’s first project, The Lawns , a house in the Highgate Conservation Area in London, won awards from the Royal Institute of British Architects and Civic Trust and was shortlisted for the Stirling Prize. Although most well known for contemporary houses, the practice has also worked for the British Library, the Design Council, O2 and Selfridges. The more recent house in Highgate Cemetery won a RIBA award and was shortlisted for RIBA London’s Building of the Year, and was nominated for both the Manser Medal and Stephen Lawrence Award. In 2009 the practice won ‘Architect of the Year’ in BD’s awards. Co-founded with Piers Smerin, Eldridge Smerin recently went their separate ways as a practice.
