(UK) – Founding Director Paul Beale joined by Christopher Knowlton to run London office.

The studio, located in Shoreditch, London, is the third Electrolight office and the first one outside of Australia. Beale said: “It’s great to be back in London and very exciting to be opening the first international office of Electrolight. I hope to build upon the success of the Australian practice and to become an active participant in the UK design scene.”

Donn Salisbury who heads up the Sydney studio has taken on a national role and now leads the Australian practice as a whole. Jess Perry and Elisha Howard (both based in Melbourne) have been appointed directors. Beale remains involved with the Australian practice the same as Perry and Howard have involvement in the London studio.

The London office are currently working on a retail centre in Lahore with International architects AHR. As well as some projects in Kings Cross and the international roll-out of a high-end fashion retailer.

Beale said: “We just want to do interesting things and collaborate with nice people. Projects may be big or small but must be interesting – we want to make a difference through the work we do.”
