Bradford Design Exchange

In 1989 Allen Tod developed the concept of a Design Exchange, which consisted of studios, offices and workspaces for designers and artists, together with high quality conference space, galleries and a cafe bar.

We took the idea to Bradford Metropolitan Council, together with suggested buildings and the concept was warmly received.

Allen Tod altered, refurbished and linked three adjacent Grade 2 listed buildings in the historically important area of Little Germany and designed the interiors and a selection of furniture for the project.

The building has successfully attracted design businesses and is regularly used for conferences, training and Design Council exhibitions.

The project received a Civic Trust Award.
