Chris Allwood

After graduating from Leeds University in 2004, Chris started his career with RMJM Architects where he developed experience of commercial, education and residential projects. Chris joined industrial specialist Burks Green in 2005 and quickly made a name for himself for his striking designs and concept design skills. Following 8 years of service at Burks Green (Later RPS) Chris was keen to renew successful professional relationships and joined UMC Architects in 2013. Chris works extensively alongside UMC’s loyal client base, with his team providing design expertise and guidance at feasibility stage through to the often-complex planning process and beyond. He has considerable experience in the supply of masterplanning and bespoke design solutions for large scale industrial facilities.

Chris is a football fanatic who as a long-suffering Nottingham Forest fan can often be seen on a Saturday afternoon with his head in his hands. In his spare time, he is kept occupied by his two dogs often enjoying long walks and taking in the local dog friendly public houses!
