A member of the Royal Institute of British Architects, Derrick has worked on a range of projects internationally and throughout the UK.
Derrick’s sector experience covers residential, hospitality, masterplanning, leisure, healthcare, later living, interior design, commercial, project management, property development and international property consultancy; all of which will further strengthen GSS’ extensive portfolio.
Speaking of his recent appointment, Derrick said, “I am already enjoying utilising my skills and experience on a range of projects in the GSS Gloucester studio, the surrounding areas, and across the UK. There is a great team at GSS, and I am delighted to be working with a talented and dedicated bunch of people on such a wide range of exciting projects.”
Tom Lyons, Senior Partner at GSS, said, “We are very pleased and lucky to have Derrick join us at our Gloucester Studio, and with his knowledge and experience, we are looking forward to further expanding our presence in the Southwest.”
This is one of many recent expansion successes for GSS, who recently celebrated their Newcastle Studio’s relocation to larger premises, together with the promotion of Phil Hunt, Chartered Architectural Technologist based at their Midlands head office, to Associate.
