Croft Architecture Shortlisted for Four Categories at the Grafters Awards 2026

We're delighted to announce that Croft Architecture has been shortlisted for four awards at The Grafters Awards 2026, recognising architectural practices across the North West construction and property industry.

Following nominations from connections within the industry, our team has been recognised in four categories, celebrating the breadth of architectural services we provide and the projects we're privileged to deliver.

Four Award Nominations

Croft Architecture has been shortlisted for:

• George Tsiantar Award for Best RIBA Architectural Practice
• Best Commercial Architectural Practice
• Best Residential Architectural Practice
• Best Boutique Architectural Practice

The Grafters Awards celebrate businesses and professionals working within the North West construction and property industry, bringing together architects, developers, contractors, consultants and specialist suppliers.

This year's winners will be announced on Thursday 3 December 2026 at the Manchester Suite, Old Trafford, Manchester.

Recognition Across Residential and Commercial Architecture

What makes these nominations particularly meaningful is the recognition of the different sectors in which our team works.

At Croft Architecture, no two projects are the same.

Our residential work ranges from home extensions and remodelling to replacement dwellings, new homes and barn conversions. We help clients explore the potential of their properties and develop thoughtful design solutions that respond to their needs, aspirations and budgets.

Alongside this, our commercial and community projects include offices, education buildings, heritage regeneration and development opportunities.

Whether we're helping a family create a better home or supporting a business with the redevelopment of an existing building, our approach remains consistent: understanding the brief, identifying opportunities and providing considered architectural advice from the earliest stages.

Celebrating Our Team and Industry Relationships

Architecture is a collaborative profession.

Behind every successful project is a team of architects, architectural assistants, technologists, engineers, consultants, contractors and clients working towards a shared objective.

We're fortunate to work with talented professionals across Staffordshire, Cheshire and the wider North West.

Being nominated by connections within the construction and property industry is particularly rewarding because it reflects the relationships we've developed and the confidence others place in our practice.

We would like to thank everyone who put Croft Architecture forward for consideration.

A Message from Croft Architecture

"We're incredibly grateful to everyone who has nominated us, and to our clients and professional colleagues for their continued trust and support.

"Whatever the outcome, we're proud of what our team has achieved and look forward to celebrating with others from across the industry."
