Bond Bryan are delighted to have been shortlisted for two awards at the Explore Offsite Awards 2020
The rise of Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) presents an opportunity for the architectural profession and designers to engage with the construction industry as it evolves and adapts to a fundamental shift in how buildings are designed, procured and delivered. We are incredibly lucky to work with some truly fantastic clients and contractors to create these spaces – congratulations to us all!
Our resident BTR specialist, Tomasz Romaniewicz joined a fantastic panel of industry experts to examine Build To Rent as a critical tool for regenerating our cities.

We are delighted to be shortlisted for the Building Design, Higher Education Architect of the Year Award.
It is very important to create buildings which encourage and support innovative forms of teaching and learning; the experience of being a student should always be central to defining the learning environment of the future.
We are all proud to be nominated alongside these great practices.
Congratulations to everyone involved!
Bond Bryan’s Tomasz Romaniewicz will be taking part in the upcoming Bisnow BTR webinar: “Making BTR accessible: the Case for Product Differentiation + Tier Two Markets”. Tomasz will be alongside James Mulcare (Godwin Developments), Ashley Perry MRICS (LIV Consult) Rebecca Taylor (Long Harbour Ltd) and John German (Invesco EMEA).
Webinar Summary
As we move out of the pandemic, working from home and spending more time within your local community will play a bigger part in our lives than at any time in recent memory. While this may trigger increased demand for BTR in suburban settings, a strong gravity towards inner-city living will remain. BTR developments already exhibit a high level of quality and customer service — highly valued during these times — but how can the sector make itself accessible to a wider audience across different locations?
Please join the experts as they examine how the BTR sector can further differentiate its product offerings and cater to a wider market — from young professions, downsizers to families. They will discuss how BTR works in tier-two markets and how it can reach a wider audience in metropolitan areas in the new world.
Bond Bryan are delighted to be nominated for the Insider Media Sheffield Property Awards.
The University of Sheffield’s Engineering Heartspace has been nominated for the Design Excellence Award.
It’s fantastic to see so many unique projects and local practices shaping our region in becoming a hotspot for education, industry, commerce and living.
Congratulations to everyone involved!
The Bond Bryan team is delighted to have three projects shortlisted in the prestigious RIBA Awards 2020.
The University of Sheffield, Engineering Heartspace and The Doncaster Enterprise Centre have both been shortlisted in the RIBA Yorkshire Award 2020.
The University of Kent, Kennedy Building has been shortlisted for the RIBA South East Award.
RIBA Yorkshire Judging Panel Chair, Peter Cartwright, said:
“This year’s shortlist of potential RIBA award winners in Yorkshire covers a wide range of sectors with many schemes reinventing existing buildings rather than building new, which is great to see. We are very interested in the operation and performance of buildings, as opposed to purely how they look – their beauty must be more than skin deep. We believe awards should go to buildings which will continue to look good for years to come, taking into consideration their low carbon strategy and approach to whole life cost.”
Managing Director, Jonathan Herbert said: “We are absolutely thrilled to be shortlisted for each of these awards; the competition in both regions is as high as ever and we are extremely proud of all of our people whose hard work and determination has made this possible. Congratulations to everyone in the shortlist!”
The RIBA Awards are judged by physically visiting each shortlisted project. Due to significant concern about the spread of coronavirus, the judging of all RIBA Awards for buildings has been postponed and will resume when possible.
We are absolutely over the moon to win the RICS Yorkshire & Humber Social Impact Award ‘Education Project of the Year’ for The University of Sheffield Engineering Heartspace! Massive congratulations to everyone that was involved in this project – a true reflection of a fantastic collaboration and what we have all achieved -something truly remarkable, rich in heritage and ambition.
We hope that the students and staff will enjoy this space for many years to come.

Bond Bryan’s Tomasz Romaniewicz, commented:

Bond Bryan receives planning permission for residential scheme at Bawtry Park golf complex.
We are delighted to announce that Bond Bryan have received planning permission for a high-quality residential scheme at the Bond Bryan-designed, Bawtry Golf Complex.
The scheme, for Saul Homes, comprises the first three out of the proposed eighteen contemporary villas – all bespoke and unique in their design: a careful choice of natural materials, simple shapes and forms – have been incorporated to take advantage of the views across the golf course.
Gonzalo Carmona, Associate Architect, comments:
“We have enjoyed working with Saul Homes and the team to develop these designs; it has been a fantastic opportunity to work with a great client – one with forward-thinking ideas, who is not afraid to take a risk and to place his trust in good contemporary architecture. This scheme will create something completely new for Doncaster and the region and I’m excited to see it come to fruition.”
Bond Bryan have worked closely with Calderdale Council and Project Managers Turner and Townsend to develop design proposals for the community-led regeneration project of Elland Town Centre.
Elland has some of the most unique heritage assets within the Yorkshire region; however, the changes in how people use the high street have meant that footfall has reduced in parts of the town and many heritage buildings are not being utilised. Bond Bryan have developed the masterplan with the council and this encompasses six distinct, but inter-related elements aiming to bring those spaces back into use and enable viable opportunities for new businesses and homes; these will generate an increase in footfall and occupation, recapture the spirit and distinction of place and bring back the heart of the high street.
The plans create improved connectivity throughout the town – by linking venues and assets in a fun way, creating new event spaces and improved public realm – and by working with the cultural heritage of the place to develop new talent for the future economy, and the opportunities to have more people living in the town centre.
Due to the Coronavirus outbreak, a public consultation will be carried out virtually – welcoming local people to have their say by questionnaire and to ensure that the needs of the community are being met.
Bond Bryan’s Tomasz Romaniewicz, commented:
“Continuing with a virtual public consultation is a real testament to the strength and ambition that we see at Calderdale Council: pushing ahead during these difficult times with the end-goal in sight – to better connect the features of the town and unlock its true potential. We are very excited to be part of this project in reigniting the town which holds so much potential and is rich in history.”
Calderdale Council’s Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Resources, Coun Jane Scullion, said:
“Elland has a lot to offer as a town, with some wonderful heritage features and some great independent shops and businesses. We’re now at the stage when we can share some ideas to help improve the look and feel of the town centre.”
