Key People
Luke Hayes
Luke qualified as an Architect following an education at the University for Creative Arts in Canterbury and University College London, The Bartlett. Prior to Funlab Luke worked for award winning practices in London and Somerset. While in London he designed and delivered projects across sectors form residential and mixed use to education, commercial, hospitality & leisure. He also consulted on prominent urban development schemes such as Battersea Reach and high level 'New Town' plans along the Oxford - Cambridge Corridor. He likes pushing the planning system working with RTPI Planners to extract the most out of the scheme to maximise client value. A core belief is team work that comes from a back ground in Rugby [ssh he used to don the 11 & 13 shirts you wouldn't think he once had gas]. A successful project has the right team in place at the right time working collaboratively rather then individuals just dropping data. Away from the work place Luke likes road and mountain biking, making new bikes from unloved frames, brewing beers and wines, but most of all having FUN.
