ANARCHITECT is a multi-award-winning architecture, interior architecture, and design practice headquartered in London and Dubai. Founded in 2013 by British RIBA architect Jonathan Ashmore, the studio has gained an international reputation for delivering projects that sit at the intersection of understated luxury and contextually modern architecture.
Driven by a commitment to craft, materiality, and narrative, ANARCHITECT has quickly become a leading name among design-conscious clients and the global high-end lifestyle press, shaping projects that are as innovative as they are timeless.
A Philosophy of Understated Luxury
At the core of ANARCHITECT’s vision lies a refined approach to contemporary design, where architecture and interiors seamlessly converge to create meaningful spaces. Rather than relying on excess, the studio champions an aesthetic rooted in balance, authenticity, and quiet sophistication.
The practice approaches each project through a context-driven lens, drawing inspiration from its surroundings while creating distinctive architectural statements that elevate its environment. This results in buildings and interiors that are deeply connected to place, yet retain a universal sense of elegance and relevance.
A Multidisciplinary Approach
ANARCHITECT operates across the disciplines of architecture, interior architecture, and design, applying the same rigorous design discourse and attention to detail at every scale. Whether designing a residential villa, luxury hospitality destination, or innovative commercial space, the studio’s process is rooted in collaboration, research, and precision craftsmanship.
Materiality plays a pivotal role in their design ethos, with a strong focus on tactile textures, natural finishes, and bespoke detailing. This commitment to sensory experience ensures that every project feels immersive, harmonious, and human-centred.
An International Portfolio
From Dubai to London, Cape Town to Bangkok, ANARCHITECT’s work spans continents and typologies, reflecting its ability to translate local narratives into globally relevant design. Its portfolio includes residences, boutique hotels, resorts, cultural spaces, and commercial developments, each defined by the studio’s signature restrained luxury and timeless aesthetics.
The studio’s projects are regularly featured in international design and lifestyle publications, showcasing its growing influence on the global stage. Through its distinctive architectural language, ANARCHITECT has developed a loyal following among clients seeking designs that transcend trends and prioritise longevity.
Award-Winning Excellence
ANARCHITECT has been recognised with numerous international awards, including one of the first RIBA certifications granted outside the UK, a testament to its commitment to excellence and innovation. Despite its international acclaim, the studio has remained intentionally boutique and family-owned, preserving its design-driven ethos and ensuring a personalised, hands-on approach to every project.
Shaping the Future of Design
In a rapidly evolving design landscape, ANARCHITECT continues to push the boundaries of contemporary architecture while staying true to its core principles: contextual relevance, refined aesthetics, and exceptional craft.
From Dubai’s vibrant skyline to serene retreats across the globe, ANARCHITECT creates spaces that resonate emotionally, function beautifully, and endure gracefully, redefining what understated luxury means for a new era of architecture and design.
