Since 1985, William Lippe Architects
Ltd has been forming and maintaining increasingly strong links
within the City of Aberdeen, within Aberdeenshire and throughout
Scotland, providing their Clients with the comfort of ready access
to the Architect responsible for their
particular project.
The activities of the practice cover a
wide range of new building works in terms of Client, value and
building category, and includes both new build and refurbishment. The backbone of their contract
experience ranges considerably from £20,000 - £5 million,
but they are equally experienced in the execution and administration
of commissions in excess of
£15 million.
As well as many individual dwellings and residential
developments the company are proud to be associated with some of
their recent public building projects; A new retail facility for
Anderson House Furnishers, A new build business centre at Thainstone
for the ANM Groups Ltd, A New bakery and retail facility for JG
Ross, A new community facility at the Leys Hall, Blackburn and
a leisure and timeshare development in Aberfeldy. The company are
also proud to have just accepted an award for conservation in the
local Aberdeenshire Council Design Awards for the restoration and
extension to the Lonach Hall, Strathdon.
William Lippe Architects was formed in 1985,
following the dissolution of a previous partnership, by William
and Anne Lippe who own and run the practice from the offices at
4 St James Place, Inverurie. In 2004 the company changed to a Limited
Company with William and Anne Lippe
as directors.
William Lippe manages the Company on a day-to
day basis, with emphasis on architecture and Anne Lippe provides
financial and accountancy advice and manages financial and accountancy
aspects to other companies owned by the directors.
The Practice
originally operated with the Principal and one technician from
rented accommodation at 1 High Street Inverurie. The Practice moved
to the present address at 4 St James Place, Inverurie in 1990 and
constructed new offices on the site in 1992.
Since then William Lippe Architects Ltd
has evolved into a medium sized architectural practice of ten
design and technical staff under the control of William Lippe,
the company principal, and an additional administration and accounting
support staff of 3. The
company also has their own
part-time planner.
The policy at the heart of William Lippe Architects
ltd, which has served them well for their first 21 years in business
can be eloquently summarised in their mission statement:
“To provide a friendly and professional,
architectural service using modern technology, the benefit
of local knowledge, and an experienced and creative workforce.”
A policy that the Company hope will serve them well for the next
21 years.
