Morgan Carn Architects

Morgan Carn was founded in 1957 and has established a reputation for quality architecture that is buildable and cost effective. One specialty of the practice is unlocking the potential of complex sites that are often sterilised or restricted by planning policies or issues such as flooding, contamination, neighbouring buildings etc. Our approach has won commissions from a wide variety of clients including national developers, local authorities, housing associations, schools, churches, hospitals, the Environment Agency, the R.N.L.I. and many others. MCP has proven ability in acting as lead consultant coordinating the design team, engaging local communities and other stakeholders. We believe in teamwork and work closely with associated disciplines and other key development team members to deliver robust, economic solutions to your brief. We are experienced in many sectors including marine and waterfront, residential, education, ecclesiastical, health and commercial. We are seasoned in the masterplanning process and understand that this requires the co-ordination of many layers of information. By examining the hierarchy of public/private spaces and the coexistence of mixed users and by maintaining a friendly, professional relationship with local authorities and planners, our masterplans result in an environment that gels as a whole whilst enhancing quality of life. MCP has a varied portfolio which includes master plans for the regeneration of Newhaven, the first £11 million phase of which was successfully completed with grant funding from SEEDA, a £65 million mixed waterside development in Gibraltar, 340 seafront houses and flats in Poole, a 4 star 100+ bedroom hotel with spa and leisure facilities in Sussex, restaurants, office developments, hospital projects, schools, churches and community buildings.
