CarverHaggard

Civic & Cultural

We are currently working with a variety of local organisations and social enterprises on projects for small to medium-scale community buildings.

We have extensive past experience in this sector, including buildings for art, education, community groups, theatre and libraries across the UK.

Workspace & Retail

We are working on a range of commercial and retail projects, varying in scale from bespoke lighting and product display systems to mixed-use commercial developments.

Our previous experience includes numerous commercial and retail developments in Britain, Russia and the Far East.

Houses & Housing

We are currently working on residential projects ranging from small feasibility studies and extensions to larger private houses and urban developments.

Our previous experience includes bespoke private houses for artists and large residential developments in the UK and abroad.

Exhibitions & Furniture

We are interested in exploring areas of design parallel to architecture; from temporary exhibitions and performances to products and bespoke furniture.

William Haggard has also been involved in design for theatre and film for over ten years. Credits include “Good Boy”, a short film by the Ritson brothers, and a series of theatre productions with Crazy Horse Theatre Company.

Research

We are very interested in the relationship between research and practice. We explore this through teaching, practical research projects and cross-disciplinary collaboration and academic exchange with colleagues in the UK and abroad.

Studio 8, our undergraduate studio at The Cass, explores scenarios for the progressive transformation of large urban sites.

We are working on a number of self-directed research projects in the UK and South East Asia and have been involved in a series of interdisciplinary research networks over recent years, such as the Creative City Limits network run by UCL Urban Lab and funded by AHRC.
