Working as part of a small team he helped deliver the first 2 phases of the Royal Wharf project in London (approx. £1bn project value); a mixed use development with 3000 apartments and town houses, office and retail space, school and leisure facilities. The broad experience Lee gained has strengthened the AXIS team with a valuable technical knowledge and a real drive for perfection. He continues to be involved in complex schemes where he is valued for his critical eye and attention to detail.

Michael has over 13 years’ experience within AXIS. He has been involved in several office projects for HSBC including, Grosvenor House in Sheffield (global IT hub), Edmund Street in Birmingham (Office), Tankersley in Barnsley (Data Centre), 3 Munroe Court in Leeds (Call centre), 6 Lochside Avenue in Edinburgh (Office) and for First Direct in Leeds (Call Centre). Currently he is working on feasibility test-to-fits for several offices throughout HSBC’s global portfolio, as well as producing construction information for a luxury spa in Hampshire.

Michael is an Architectural Technologist, with a wide range of experience, ranging from small office refurbishments, to large scale fit outs. He has been the lead draughtsman for several projects, including the recently completed Grosvenor House, Edmund Street and Munroe Court; He was responsible for the production of drawings from feasibility stage through to construction, including drawings for presentation, CAT A containment/ co-ordination, costing, graphics packages, manufacture & construction details.

Although taking a technical role on larger projects, Michael has also taken the lead on small works projects in several offices throughout the UK, providing him with experience of working with the whole project team, from client to consultants. These small works range from space analysis, the relocation of a meeting room, re-stack of the business team, to the redecoration and rebranding of the whole office.
Due to the level of experience with HSBC office refurbishments, his knowledge of their design standards, and his passion for accuracy, Michael has been regularly called upon to produce detailed test to fit layouts for the majority of the offices AXIS have worked on. This has provided him with good experience of implementing client design requirements, with a varying range of building designs/ layouts, in addition to giving him an appreciation for good office design.

In his spare time, Michael enjoys 3D modelling; creating environments and buildings of a more outlandish nature. He enjoys learning new programs to develop his work, including Bryce, Blender and Unity. When not working on his 3D modelling, Michael likes to unwind with a good walk around the beautifully green city of Sheffield.

Ryan is currently heading up our Nationwide Building Society Account with Four Architecture & Design; a joint venture between four UK architectural practices. He has successfully delivered many projects, from small refurbishments to large acquisitions, with an attitude to always go above and beyond the client’s expectations.
