Designing Places with Purpose, Innovation, and Sustainability
We Are Kettle Collective
At Kettle Collective, we strongly believe that the spaces we live in directly influence the quality of our lives, so we've made it our mission to create spaces that have meaningful narratives, with a true sense of place and purpose.
Our Edinburgh-based design studio was founded in 2012 by long-term colleagues, Tony Kettle and Colin Bone.
Bespoke Service
We design with purpose, tailoring every project to its place and people — never formulaic, always fresh.
Collaborative Team
Great ideas come from everywhere. We work closely with local experts, our team, and our clients to shape designs rooted in place.
Future-Focused Design
Our work responds to local climates and cultures, creating sustainable designs that leave a lasting, positive impact.
Innovation Inspired by Nature
Nature is our blueprint. We combine natural principles with advanced tech to create bold, intelligent architecture.
Leveraging over 25 years of global experience and collaborating closely with engineers and local specialists, we delve into every project to enhance the beauty and elegance of your vision, creating impressive architectural forms and inspired designs that celebrate their locations.
