NU ProjectsFounder
Founder of NU Projects. He set up the studio in London in 2010. One team designs, prices and builds, then stays for the defects period.

The story
Nick founded NU Projects in 2010. His background is in construction and in the creative industries. He brought both to the design and build of prime London homes.
He no longer runs every detail of every project himself. Key decisions are now made together by an experienced senior team. The aim has not changed. Bold ideas become homes people want to live in.
How he runs a job
Concept, then detail, in the open. Plans and samples you can hold.
A budget estimate first. Then a fixed cost plan before contract.
One team, under one contract. Weekly reports, so you can see the site.
A handover pack, then aftercare. We stay for the defects period.
The London team
Finance, cost, design and MEP sit together in Fulham.
