Rapidly growing architecture firm HOKO Design has opened its first north of Scotland studio in Inverness following a £400,000 investment.
The move into the Highlanda contributed towards a best-ever month for the residential architecture specialist, which is on target to be working on 1000 projects nationwide by the end of the year.
Scottish architect Danny Campbell (30) founded HOKO in 2019 with the aim of creating a "one-stop-shop" for homeowners, and introducing inovations such as virtual reality (VR) and a full interior design service.
The new Inverness studio will be managed by project architect Aiden Junor, an experienced residential architect who has spent his career working for award-winning firms in Glasgow and Skye.
Mr Junor will work directly with clients across the north of Scotland from the Western Isles to Aberdeen.
Mr Campbell said: “The HOKO mission has always been to provide the perfect home remodelling experience for homeowners.
“The traditional architecture process can be complicated, inaccessible, and out of line with advances in customer experience in other industries, and that’s why hundreds of homeowners are turning to HOKO.
“Aiden is part of our team of talented architects working nationwide to deliver HOKO’s streamlined one-stop shop experience, customer experience. Working with a fantastic network of local suppliers and tradespeople, we are able to take the hassle out of home improvement, and deliver the highest quality projects from start to finish.”
Mr Junor, who is is one of 10 HOKO project architects working around the UK, commented: “The response to our arrival in Inverness has been excellent, and already we are working with clients across the north of Scotland who are loving the HOKO experience.
“It’s a privilege to be part of such a forward-thinking business, which is seeking to make positive, client-focused changes to an industry that needs a refresh. It’s a great place to work, and clients love the work we do.”
