16A Architecture Unveils New Branding at Liverpool Office
We’re excited to announce the completion of our new signage at the 16A Architecture Liverpool office! As a leading RIBA Chartered Practice in Liverpool, we believe that great design should be reflected not only in the projects we deliver but also in our own brand. After launching our initial logo as a startup almost four years ago, we thought we had our branding covered. However, as our business has evolved, we’ve learned a valuable lesson—sometimes, as business owners, it’s important to step back and seek advice from industry experts.
Our new signage perfectly reflects the growth and transformation of 16A Architecture. Special thanks to Steve at Gemini Signs for his fantastic installation work. His expertise has truly brought our vision to life, ensuring that our office presence in the heart of Liverpool city centre stands out.
As residential architects and heritage conservation architects working across Liverpool and Chester, our goal has always been to blend modern design with respect for architectural history. Our new branding captures this balance—bold, forward-thinking, and rooted in our commitment to the communities we serve. Whether we're designing contemporary homes or preserving historical buildings, we are passionate about delivering excellence.
Our experience has reinforced the importance of relying on experts in their fields—something we encourage our clients to do when embarking on architectural projects. As a RIBA Chartered Practice and one of the best architectural firms in Liverpool city centre, we understand the value of collaboration in creating innovative designs.
At 16A Architecture, we’re not just residential architects; we are trusted partners in conservation, interior architecture, and urban development. If you're looking for the best architects in Liverpool or Chester, specialising in everything from heritage to cutting-edge modern design, we're here to help you bring your vision to life.

renovations in Areas of Natural Habitats: Lifting the Ridge on Bungalows in the Wirral
renovations in areas of natural Habitats: lifting the ridge on bungalows in the wirral
renovating properties in the wirral, particularly in areas that fall within natural habitats or greenbelt zones, presents both opportunities and challenges. the region, renowned for its picturesque landscapes and proximity to the coast, often sees home renovations that aim to modernize or expand existing structures. One common trend is the "lifting of the ridge" on bungalows, which involves raising the roofline to add an additional floor or improve living space.
while such renovations can enhance property value and accommodate growing families, they raise significant concerns about the impact on local ecosystems. many properties in the Wirral are situated within or near protected greenbelt areas, home to diverse wildlife and important natural habitats. development in these regions requires careful planning to ensure that construction doesn’t disrupt local flora and fauna or contribute to urban sprawl.
local councils and conservation groups advocate for sustainable renovation practices, urging homeowners to consider environmental factors and obtain necessary planning permissions before proceeding. Balancing the need for modern living with the preservation of natural habitats remains a delicate task, but with thoughtful design and respect for the environment, homeowners can improve their properties without compromising the integrity of the Wirral’s green spaces
