We have a small team here at Cross and Craig who work together. This means you will receive a very personal service and there will always be someone available to chat about your project.
As Director, Vicki has an overview of all our projects and strives to create a flexible collaborative work environment where the creativity of our team can flourish.
Before joining Cross and Craig, she worked in-house for a developer on the layout designs for their housing schemes and in more recent years, has designed a number of bespoke one-off homes for our clients. Her particular passion is historic and vernacular buildings and her portfolio includes listed buildings, houses in Conservation Areas and extensions to rural dwellings in the Green Belt.
As a chartered Architect with this wealth of experience, Vicki took over the running of Cross and Craig in 2014, when her father Andy Craig retired.
Andrew, a chartered Architect, has been leading projects since he left Sheffield School of Architecture in 2011.
His empathy and attention to detail means his designs will be tailored to exactly suit your family’s needs. His previous experience includes many projects where the clients had specific unique requirements such as a new SEN school for pupils with special needs, a religious building in a Conservation Area, and a heritage lottery funded scheme for a Grade 1 listed building.
He enjoys building a relationship with his clients, understanding your needs and making your vision a reality, whether that means creating a space to suit a special physical requirements, or just creating small moments of delight in your home.
