A+DP (Architecture and Design Partnership) celebrated this weekend its 40th anniversary with an exclusive event held at their fabulous refurbished offices in Holmfirth. Attended by a whole host of local companies, clients, partners and past employees the event was in recognition of the business’ 40 years and its contribution to the local economy.

“This evening has given us the opportunity to invite and thank those who have contributed to the success of the business over the last 40 years and collaboratively celebrate our achievements. A+DP has always played a prominent role in changing the architectural landscape in Holmfirth and surrounding areas. We have been involved in some fabulous projects, and as a team are now keen to build on the success of the last 40 years,” said Natalie Garside, Partner.

Since its inception in 1978 by innovative partners Russell Earnshaw and Steven Greaves, the award winning business has experienced many changes. Still very active in the business and its future within the modern architectural landscape, Russell recalled some of the company’s key milestones and some of their first projects, which took them as far as Iraq. The more recent projects include the design of a series of luxury car showrooms across the world, the transformation of petroleum forecourts across the country and the renovation of countless heritage buildings.

Although A+DP has designed projects in 42 countries around the globe, the business’ main focus lies in the UK, with an enviable reputation locally in Yorkshire. The company offers innovative, high quality, classic, yet contemporary, corporate and residential properties, many of which have been recognised by Architectural Awards nationally for meeting and exceeding client’s expectations.

The evening concluded with the cutting of a ginormous celebratory cake, which is currently being donated to a local care home.
