ABOUT US

COMBINING ENGINEERING, ARCHITECT, AND DESIGN EXPERTISE

Design Rationale is a prestigious architectural metalwork and glazing contractor that has been providing considered and rationalized bespoke solutions since 1992. Driven by a design-led approach, we take the architect's or client's brief and specifications, and use them to develop engineered and detailed manufacturing drawings in 2D and 3D. We then procure components from our established supply chain, before our experienced installation team brings the designs to life on-site.

Our in-house team of designers, project managers, and support staff work closely together to deliver exceptional quality and service, always striving to surpass our clients' expectations. With a focus on safety, efficiency, and environmental responsibility, we are committed to providing the most appropriate, cost-effective solutions that meet our clients' unique needs.
