tp bennett has added to its architectural team with a new senior Director appointment.
Neil Sterling joins tp bennett as Director to further strengthen the architectural team’s position in the commercial office, residential and retail markets.

He will continue to represent tp bennett at these forums as part of the practice’s commitment to the future of the profession.
Bill Soper, Principal Director at tp bennett, said: “Neil brings to tp bennett a unique set of qualities that will continue our commitment to conceptual design. This is with equal focus on delivery and the use of technology and reinforces our high quality standards and commitment to collaborative working. We welcome him to the practice.”
Neil Sterling, Director, said: “tp bennett offers a platform of encouragement and high profile schemes for architects to contribute to the success of its projects. The practice is working on some of the most significant projects in London and this is why it attracts architects that want to explore new ideas and approaches to the delivery of architecture.
