Ash Sakula Architects

Ash Sakula Architects has been at the forefront of socially responsible and imaginative design since 1994, creating neighbourhoods and public spaces that blend sustainability, resourcefulness, and community-driven innovation. The firm’s projects consistently demonstrate how thoughtful architecture can transform the way people live and connect. Standout achievements include The Malings in Newcastle, a groundbreaking housing development that won the prestigious Supreme Award in 2016, and the 500-home Wickside development on the canal near Queen Elizabeth Park, which earned the London Award in 2017. More recently, Ash Sakula received a Housing Design Award in Lewes for the first phase of the zero-carbon Phoenix neighbourhood—a pioneering model for sustainable, vibrant living. Beyond housing, Ash Sakula’s portfolio showcases their ability to create lively, inclusive environments in challenging spaces. The Meanwhile Caravanserai in London’s Royal Docks, for example, transformed a temporary site into a vibrant community hub, reflecting the studio's resourcefulness and innovative approach. Known for their knack for making “a little go a long way,” the architects consistently deliver inventive and inclusive designs that enrich communities and environments. Whether designing an urban masterplan or a pocket park, their work is inventive, inclusive, and always joyful.
