alma-nac is a London-based architecture studio established in 2010 by Chris Bryant, Caspar Rodgers and Tristan Wigfall.
The practice has built a reputation for its imaginative yet pragmatic work. Named as one of AJ’s 40 under 40, alma-nac has won the AJ retrofit award twice as well as Regional and National RIBA awards.
Much of alma-nac’s work focuses on the reuse and reimagining of existing spaces to provide more sustainable design solutions. They won the AJ Retrofit Housing award for Paxton House and are currently working on a Net Carbon Zero project for Dulwich College that reuses much of the existing structure.
Central to alma-nac’s work is a participatory approach; exploring the positive impact of meaningful engagement with clients and end users.
In 2023, in collaboration with other built environment professionals, alma-nac launched Design for All,
They describe their practice as driven by ‘collaboration and participation’ and ‘an appetite for experimentation’ with a ‘social agenda to broaden the remit and democratise the output of the profession’.
