Gibson Thornley is design-led architecture studio founded in 2013 by Ben Gibson and Matt Thornley. Built on principles of creative ownership, social conscience and environmental responsibility. Over the past decade, the practice has amassed a wealth of experience creating thoughtful and enduring architecture across a range of sectors and scales, including residential, cultural, and educational.
All of the practice’s projects are connected by their sense of welcome: they are clear to read, rich in content and unfold to their users with enjoyment. The success of these projects is based on collaborative working coupled with a strong visual sensibility and attentive creative process.
Gibson Thornley’s clients include cultural institutions such as V&A Dundee, the National Galleries of Scotland and Bucks County Museum, and developers and local authorities including the London Borough of Southwark, Pocket Living and real estate company Kajima.
