mk40 architects design projects which are imaginative and refreshing.  We create individual solutions to suit the unique brief and requirements of each project.  Our architecture is developed from a thorough understanding of the client’s brief, the local site, animal species and the surrounding context such as interpretation & enrichment.

We offer a range of services including architectural design, interior design, landscape design and project management across all stages of a project.

The extension to the existing giraffe house at ZSL Whipsnade Zoo, has provided more animal space and a much improved visitor experience within the heart of the zoo.  It was designed as a separate space giving the giraffes a better environment to live in with a sand floor, good natural lighting, improved insulation, better heating, and feeders and water points at the correct level as well as providing enhanced visitor engagement.
