  • "Miller Bourne are one of Brighton’s ‘blue-chip’ architect firms. Some architectural practices are susceptible to over-designing buildings, whereas Miller Bourne understand from the outset what a client needs and provide design solutions to suit those requirements. Miller Bourne are good at looking ahead to potential problems and mitigating them. They're also technically thorough when it comes to the grunt and grind of delivery, with solid specifications from the start."
