A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away... HPW Barkitecture’s CEO, Hugo, got an important call from his client, Murphy. One quick dog-and-bone chat later, he bounded into work on the Star Paws Sleeping Module. Early designs were given the go ahead by the "big woofs" at Goodwoof, and the build is looking strong; Hugo and Murphy are nearly ready to unleash their kennel. What lies ahead for Hugo and Murphy? Only the final frontier itself. The duo is preparing to explore uncha

We were saddened to hear of the passing of Frank Owen Gehry. A Canadian American architect and designer, Gehry was celebrated for his postmodern approach and bold, unconventional use of form and materials. His work has left a lasting impact on architecture and design worldwide, and our team is no exception, his legacy continues to inspire. Alex, Jacob, and Huw wanted to share some of their favourite Gehry buildings, to honour such an inspirational man.

These improvements might not grab headlines, but they make a real difference to peoples lives; providing safer and more comfortable living environments for the people who call these sites home.

When our client came to us with a dream of a self-build garden structure full of character, we knew this would be a special project. After many discussions, hand drawn sketches, and a shared commitment to sustainability, this unique, bat friendly structure began to take shape, crafted mostly from recycled timber and built with patience over several challenging years. Now nearly complete, it stands as a testament to creativity, collaboration, and care for the environment. #C

This week, we’re reflecting on a challenge that’s increasingly shaping our built environment: loneliness. Huw from our team shared how living in modern flats often meant never meeting neighbours - a reality made more common by short-term rentals and transient communities. Without shared spaces to gather and connect, local communities can’t take root. As traditional social venues like pubs fade, we must ask: What role can design play in rebuilding community? Jacob from HPW rem
