An exciting new chapter for aad!

We are delighted to announce that we are acquiring the well-known Sheffield practice, Cadenza Architecture + Design.

Founded by Ian Bevan in 2007, Cadenza has been led by Ian Drabble since 2016, continuing to deliver a trusted service to its valued clients.

Ian is now working closely with us to ensure a seamless transition for Cadenza’s clients and projects.

Ian stated that: “aad is a natural fit for Cadenza’s clientele and their aspirations, being well-equipped with the talented staff, dynamic management and vibrant culture necessary to deliver the successful objectives that Cadenza clients have come to expect.”

Ian will continue working with us supporting former Cadenza clients until his planned retirement in December, following a mere 52 years in the profession.

We look forward to welcoming Cadenza’s clients and beginning this exciting new chapter together!

Congratulations to Zuzanna and Kaitlan! 👏✨

We popped down to the Sheffield Hallam University Architecture End of Year Show last night to show our support and catch up with some of our previous work experience students.

Over the years, we’ve been delighted to support them during their architectural studies and see their confidence and skills grow. Zuzanna has just completed her undergraduate degree, while Kaitlan has finished her Master’s.

We’re so pleased that they have both already secured graduate roles – a fantastic achievement and a testament to all their hard work and dedication.

Congratulations to you both. We wish you every success as you begin your careers in architecture! 🎉

We were pleased to support the refurbishment works at MK Dons Stadium, creating the new Club Red Lounge!

The dedicated lounge has been designed to enhance the match day experience, providing a welcoming space for supporters with a new bar facility, sports screens, and opportunities to hear from players before and after the match.
A great addition to the stadium hospitality offer.

We have just secured a second planning consent at Stepney Street, Sheffield!

aad architects have gained approval for the resubmission of a previously consented nine-storey residential scheme, originally comprising 100 mainly studio and one-bed apartments.

The revised brief sought to improve the quality of accommodation by reducing the number of studios, introducing larger two-bed apartments, acknowledging national space standards and improving dual-aspect living spaces.

The scheme also needed to respond to the requirements of the Building Safety Act, which had been introduced after the original consent was granted.

All of this was achieved while retaining the building’s established height, appearance and distinctive curvaceous form, which continued to be supported by Sheffield planners. The revised proposal was approved with the loss of only a small number of apartments, helping to deliver a more robust and viable development.

Great work by the aad team and Paul Bedwell Planning Consultant on a complex application

We’re very proud to be sponsoring this event again in collaboration with Women in Property and thefitnesstruck 🌞🏋🏼‍♀️🍰

Originally organised by our Architectural Assistant, Georgia, a few years ago, the event completely sold out and created a really fun and positive evening bringing people across the industry together.

We’re delighted to be supporting it again this year, with Georgia now organising the event as part of the Women in Property committee.

Looking forward to another great evening at Park Hill!

UKREiiF is officially in full swing 👏🏻👏🏻

Our directors, Mark and Pete, have been in attendance across yesterday and today, with Georgia and Dana attending yesterday.

Georgia and Dana started the day at the Women in Property breakfast, Drivers and Barriers: Market Outlook 2026, before heading on a regeneration tour around Leeds, giving a real insight into the scale of development and investment currently taking place across the city centre.

In between all of the business, we hosted a lunch yesterday which definitely did not disappoint. Great food, great company, and plenty of good conversations to keep everyone fuelled for the rest of the day!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for lunch, and we hope to bump into more of you lovely people as the day goes on!

Our recently completed Ashton Sixth Form College project is a great example of how careful coordination and collaboration can make complex projects possible.

The project involved the demolition of an existing building to make way for a new extension to the sports hall, alongside a new link bridge connecting into the adjacent building. The scheme delivered much needed teaching space, staff facilities and new changing rooms for the college.

One of the key challenges was coordinating floor levels between the two existing buildings and the new extension, while maintaining suitable ceiling heights throughout.

With a constrained site and areas of the college remaining operational throughout construction, close collaboration was essential to ensure a safe environment for students, staff and contractors, particularly during key academic periods and exams.

We are absolutely thrilled to share that our Chatsworth Road project has now secured planning permission.

This marks a really positive step forward for a site that has been left to deteriorate for a number of years, unlocking its potential and bringing meaningful regeneration to the area. We’re so pleased that the Council have recognised the value that this development can bring to the area 👏🏻

It brings forward a new Starbucks drive-through, flexible commercial units to support local businesses, and the retention of the existing pub as part of the site’s identity. The scheme also introduces high-quality public realm, improved pedestrian and cycle links, and a stronger connection to the River Hipper.

A great step in unlocking the long-term potential of the Walton Works area.
