Elyse is an Associate at Grimshaw and has worked for the practice for 15 years since graduating from the University of Bath. She has established a diverse experience of complex projects in the transport, education, and leisure sectors. She has a particular fondness for working with historic buildings, including Grimshaw’s own recently converted Herman Miller Factory in Bath.

Other projects include laboratory buildings for the University of Southampton’s Boldrewood Campus and the Oman Botanic Garden which is currently on site. In addition to her practice work, she is a third-year design tutor back at her alma mater.

Most recently she has taken a sabbatical from the practice to complete her Masters in Building History at the University of Cambridge, which has led to her working at Historic England as a Heritage at Risk Projects Officer for the last nine months.

She is an accredited RIBA Conservation Architect and in 2020 she was named in the AJ’s 40 under 40.
