Kay and Kristian Hyde
Profile
Purpose
Our architecture is the inevitable conclusion of a listening process - to make physical the emotion and lived experience of our clients’ lives. That involves a belief that aesthetic and functional beauty is born from a close relationship with nature. Our design approach has always been to create and make with heart but with minimum impact to our planet.
We’re here to make the best buildings we can, not the most.
Process
We create with passion an architecture that has great impact.
Our award winning architecture is the result of meaningful collaborations with our clients. We revel in thinking, making, constructing. We never compromise.
Listening and translating to circumstance allows us to craft a highly detailed, low energy architecture, authentic and real. Weaving teaching, research with the latest technology into a rich studio culture that creates space for the exceptional.
Our team
We have a deep understanding of architecture evidenced in our awards and experience. We employ this understanding in every new project we work on and every new sector we work in.
Since our founding in 2006, we have had the immense pleasure of working with discerning clients from around the world in many different sectors. They have allowed us the time to go deep into crafting a poetic and rigorous architecture full of authentic built meaning, bespoke to circumstance.
Biography
Kristian Hyde
Kristian graduated with a first class honours degree in Architecture from the University of Portsmouth in 2000. He then travelled to the USA and Canada where he studied Art, Philosophy and Architecture at the University of Cincinnati. This led him to work for Anshen + Allen, an international architecture practice based in San Francisco.
Kristian’s work has received high-profiled recognition across national and global platforms – from winning numerous awards, features in broadsheets and academic journals, to exhibiting in the RIBA, London.
Combining a deep appreciation for architecture and the phenomenology of the natural world, Kristian founded Hyde + Hyde Architects in 2006 with architect and wife, Kay Hyde. The practice references cosmology, philosophy and nature to create spaces that consciously respond to our internal and external worlds.
Kay Hyde
Kay graduated with a first class honours degree from the University and Portsmouth and University of Plymouth. Following graduation, Kay joined Hampshire County Council where she worked as a Project Architect on numerous schools and educational buildings.
Kay later travelled to the USA to study Architecture and Dance in Cincinnati and gained experience working for prestigious firms in San Francisco. Upon her return to the UK, Kay practiced architecture in London and later worked for John Pardey Architects in Lymington.
In 2006, Kay established Hyde + Hyde Architects with her husband Kristian; a progressive award winning architecture practice based in South Wales, with work across the UK.
