about us:
ba:rk are...
Creative concept designers and technical problem solvers with nearly 40 years combined experience within the architectural profession. Having previously worked for both large International Architectural practices and smaller bespoke consultancies, we have learned to understand the importance of listening, inspiring and delivering our visions successfully, whatever the scale or complexity of the challenge.
​
We strive to deliver surprise, excitement & delight to you, the client, in our solutions. We are equally at home working with you on small domestic remodelling and extension projects to larger mixed use projects. We apply the same excitement, rigour, process and boundless enthusiasm to all of these challenges.

Our ambition is always to enrich and enhance the lives of all the people that interact with the environments that we create, whether it’s your cosy family home or a larger building.

We believe that all the best projects start with sharing a cup of tea....
​
Discussing and testing and understanding your vision is how we start any project that we do with you. For us, a good successful project is one of partnership with our client, we are here to listen and to interpret your vision and ideas, we are not here to tell you what you should have but to work together to create a shared solution.
​
Buildings are more than just bricks and mortar, good architecture creates memories and emotional responses through the manipulation of volume, light, colour, form & texture. We design our environments from you, the client, outwards, ensuring that the needs of you and all the end-users are considered, understood and respected.
​
We want all surprises to be good ones. We understand budgets, time constraints, construction opportunities and limitations, and will always strive to ensure that your solutions respect and adhere to these.

SHRADDHA BADONI
JASON CLARK
Hello, we are Shraddha & Jason.
​
We both met working for a large multinational architectural practice, coming together through a shared passion for great design, attention to detail, building things, and collaborative results.
​
We formed ba:rk with the intention of providing a very personal and bespoke architectural and interior design service. Whether it is in the form of people realizing their forever homes or new extensions, work spaces and retail destinations. We like to understand the way you want to live, find new and interesting ideas to enhance this and deliver it in a sustainable manner.
​
We are also very fortunate to share this passion and curiosity with the new generation of Architectural professionals by tutoring and mentoring degree students at Nottingham Trent University.
​
We both have a curiosity about the world, and all its cultural diversities, we love to travel and are inspired by very diverse influences, which we try to bring into our design thinking and solutions.
​
We are very social beings. When not working late into the night perfecting and fine tuning our projects we can often be found enjoying an evening gin and sampling the fine food opportunities in Nottingham and beyond.
