Christening their practice after the dialling codes of their two main office bases, 31/44 is headed by William Burges, James Jeffries and Stephen Davies. The team established its joint office in 2010 and has completed projects on both sides of the Channel, tackling everything from small-scale residential work to strategic masterplanning. Currently working on the refurbishment of the conference facilities at the Barbican in London and a boutique hotel in Shoreditch, the team has also recently completed the Wenslauer House on an infill plot in Amsterdam. Their objective is to create works ‘with an inherent connection to their site, whether a street, park or landscape.’
