We believe that to be successful with architecture, you need to think outside the box. This allows you to create designs that stand out from the rest. Such a practice is one we have adopted and it has brought us great success. In addition, we make sure our clients can work with the finest architect London has to offer.

Our building strategies have evolved considerably over time. Innovation and technology have given us the ability to build grand, tall buildings. We could not do the things we do today 80 years ago.

Not everything has been perfect though. Some people have made the wrong decisions with their designs. Many of these individuals were looking for the easiest and cheapest materials to use. Sadly, in many cases they also happen to be the worst ones. To make sure you never use them, we are going to discuss some of the worst materials to use in architecture.

Particle board

There aren’t many other substances that perform as poorly when you expose them to humidity, moisture, and water. However, some people still choose to use it in kitchen cabinets and bathrooms. Unfortunately though, these products may not last too long.

Low quality cladding

There are plenty of really good cladding products on the market for walls and roofs. However, you can also find ones that are not good quality. Some are potentially unsafe too because they don’t regulate heat or have a sufficient fire rating. You need to be very careful when you select a product.

Hollow core doors

Doors should always be durable and great to look at. Sadly, hollow core ones are not very strong. In fact, toddlers may be able to punch through them. They are unlikely to last a long time and don’t perform well in terms of blocking heat or noise. So, you should probably avoid them.
