πŸ“’ Exciting News! Aberrant Architecture's latest project takes us to Penarth, South Wales. πŸ–οΈ
We’ve designed a stunning seaside shelter where sustainability is woven into every detail, featuring reused elements and sustainable materials. 🌱
In true Aberrant style, the shelter showcases layers of local stories, including the delightful β€œdonkeyhead" fretwork, reminiscent of the beloved donkey rides on the beach. 🐴
A heartfelt thank you to the Vale of Glamorgan Council, our incredible clients, and the talented team who made this project come to life. πŸ™Œβœ¨
We're thrilled to announce that the shelter is now open to the local community! Come and immerse
yourself in the inspiring design. 🌟

Our Story

Hello. We are Aberrant Architecture, a multi-award winning collaborative studio of designers, makers and thinkers.

Our projects, whether interactive architecture, interiors, public art, exhibitions or installations, offer new and unexpected ways of experiencing everyday life. By placing storytelling and research at the heart of our practice, we produce spatial experiences that are both meaningful and beautiful.

Taking a participatory approach to our work, we build close relationships with the communities in which we operate to place peoples’ needs at the centre of the problems we address and the opportunities we create.

We have exhibited at a number of international architecture exhibitions, and our work has been collected by museums across the world. We also held the first-ever architecture residency at the V&A.
