The practice was established in 1980 by Jo Provan and Ray Makin. It is renowned for its work on the urban regeneration of the historic fabric notably in Manchester but also throughout the country. The past 6 years has seen rapid growth at Makin Architecture. With Architects Andrew Burns, Ashley Hunt and Dragana Opačić and Company Secretary Tracey Beekman on the Board, the practice is going from strength to strength and the company's turnover has increased by 400% since 2000. A recent name change from Provan and Makin to Makin Architecture and a fresh logo, together with a new structure is further supporting future growth. Increasingly Makin Architecture is working on bigger and an ever-widening variety of projects. The practice is equally proud of the number of award winning projects and their commercial attitude to our clients needs and aspirations.
