Our principal
Led by Principal Architect
Edward Highton
While Hutch may be a relatively young practice, our principal architect brings over 30 years of combined experience — the perfect mix of creativity, expertise and pragmatism. Edward leads every project personally, so you have one experienced point of contact from feasibility through to construction.
Work with usOur approach
We guide you through the what and the how of your project, so every decision feels considered rather than overwhelming. Good design is not about imposing a style — it's about listening, testing ideas against your site and budget, and resolving the detail that makes a home a pleasure to live in.
From heritage additions in conservation areas to new homes on tight urban sites, our work is grounded in place: context, light, orientation and the way you actually live.
