Hodder + Partners name new Associate

Hodder + Partners has appointed Angela Pownall as Associate of the architectural practice.

Angela joined Hodder + Partners – which offers services across all sectors including interior design, masterplanning and urban design – in 2014.

During her time at the Manchester-based practice Angela has focused on the delivery of 10-storey commercial office building 3 St Paul’s Place, a contained city centre site in Sheffield for developer CTP Limited and is now leading a student accommodation project in Oxford.

Stephen and Claire Hodder welcomed Angela’s appointment.

Stephen Hodder MBE, Chairman of Hodder + Partners, said: “We are pleased to announce Angela’s appointment as Associate of Hodder and Partners.

“Angela is a tremendously talented architect who continues to drive forward many of the important projects we continue to work on.

“It’s just reward that she now has the title of Associate as the practice moves into 2018, a year which will see us start to deliver some very significant projects.”

Angela, who graduated from The University of Sheffield in 2004, joined Hodder + Partners in 2014 with over seven years post qualification experience.

Prior to that she held senior positions with the Manchester office of Austin-Smith:Lord and Birmingham-based Weedon Architects, where she worked on an £11 million  heritage lottery funded conversion in Leeds, a £50m mixed use development in Manchester, a £7m residential development in Castlefield, Manchester and the £42m refurbishment of Liverpool Central Library.

Commenting on her appointment, which comes a little over a month since the launch of new book ‘Contexts: The Work of Hodder + Partners’, Angela said: “I’m delighted to now be Associate of Hodder and Partners.

“I want to contribute and sustain the significant reputation that the practice has established over the last 25 years.

“I’m also sure 2018 will be another good year for Hodder and Partners.”
