Steve Johnson

Associate Professor

Steve is a sole practitioner architect. His firm, The Architecture Ensemble, is based in central London where he also teaches at The Bartlett School of Architecture and, occasionally, The Architectural Association’s Hooke Park in Dorset. 

To date, Flimwell Park is by far the largest project completed by The Architecture Ensemble, and it carries the baggage of many years of utter fascination with timber and woodlands.
