Having originally spent four years at Associated Architects from 2013 to 2017, Thomas returned to the practice in 2020 after a period of working internationally. He was made Associate in 2021 and Associate Director in 2024.
He undertook his architectural education at Liverpool John Moores University and the Birmingham School of Architecture and Design at Birmingham City University, completing his Part III with RIBA North West.
Thomas has a wide-ranging portfolio of work spanning eight years that includes residential, commercial, educational and cultural sectors, gained at Associated Architects and other award-winning studios in Europe and the Middle-East. He has valuable experience of all project work stages from feasibility through to completion, as well as several years experience of using and leading teams in BIM to coordinate information and produce drawing packages as part of large multi-disciplinary project teams.
He has acted as project architect to lead a variety of projects, notably the Emily Wilding Building at Royal Holloway University of London, a bold and ambitious building that expanded the library provision which would also include a student services centre. This new facility successfully contributes to a high quality experience for students during their time at the institution, providing them with a state-of-the-art modern library and wide range of student services.
