Ian Duncombe, Board Director

Ian leads a dynamic team in delivering major masterplans and building projects across EMEA. Ian's passion for collaborative design began early in his career and something that remains a constant in his practice today.

Ian co-founded BDSP Partnership in 1995 and in his decades’ worth of experience, he has spearheaded numerous award-winning projects including the Gherkin, Nottingham Science Park and the World Trade Centre in Abu Dhabi.

An advocate for chapmanbdsp's integrated approach, Ian continues to collaborate with leading architects on projects worldwide as well as sharing his expertise through lecturing widely and, for the past 12 years, running a technical studies course at the Architectural Association in London.
