Bristol Studio: Now Open and Creating
Layer.studio launches a new Bristol studio to drive people-centred design across the South West, South Wales & London.
We are excited to announce the opening of our new studio in Bristol, led by Luc Jones, as part of our long-term strategy to expand our creative footprint across the UK.
Located in the Clockwise Generator Building, Finzels Reach, Bristol joins Manchester and Newcastle in a growing network of creative hubs driving design innovation across the UK. Each location brings its own local insight, energy and design innovation to the wider Layer.studio ethos.
Rooted in our core principles of Landscape + Urbanism, Layer.studio creates places that are the life and soul of communities; resilient, inclusive, and shaped by nature. We work across scales and typologies, bringing together strategy, storytelling, and design to create context-led, human and nature-centred places for future generations.
Luc Jones, Studio Lead says. “After ten years of living and working in the city, I’m excited to help grow Layer.studio’s presence here. Bristol has a unique creative energy and potential that we want to tap into, building a studio that is locally grounded and regionally ambitious, with a design outlook that reaches across the South West, South Wales and London. Our focus is on people, nature and identity, the things that make places truly meaningful.”
The Bristol studio will strengthen our offer in five key areas:
- Public Realm Strategy & Delivery
- New Neighbourhood Design
- TVIA & Townscape Support
- Early-Stage Urban Frameworks
- Community Co-Design
Simon Tugby, Founding Director, added: “Bristol is a natural step in the practice’s geographical reach - a city with a strong sense of place and identity, and one we’re excited to help shape for the future’’
With a growing portfolio of projects in London, Oxford, Cardiff and Bristol Layer.Bristol will be a regionally embedded, creatively driven hub at the heart of our next chapter in place-focused innovation.
