Thank you Chris! We are really delighted too, a project literally on the doorstep if our office is very special to be involved with.

[HAT Projects @hatprojects]

Awards provoke all kinds of odd feelings...but for the community of Jaywick, we're happy and proud. Thank you @RIBAJ! https://t.co/mLtQLKeEAO

It’s been a great Sunday for reading about architecture. This piece on Sunspot by ⁦@RowanMoore⁩ explores the context of the project as much as a description of ⁦@hatprojects⁩’ work itself. Great for Jaywick Sands fans and the uninitiated alike! https://t.co/7qONdsGfS3

[HAT Projects @hatprojects]

Thanks @RowanMoore for a really thoughtful piece about Sunspot, our recently opened project in Jaywick Sands. So glad to have the history and future of the community foregrounded. https://t.co/bdOH1b8o9z

[HAT Projects @hatprojects]

So happy our project for Lowestoft Town Hall has been confirmed as funded by the @HeritageFundUK today! A real team effort from client and design team...@MomentumStructE @MaxFordhamLLP and RGA with brilliant PM @SheilaMossKing. 🙌💥 Can't wait to get this built.

[HAT Projects @hatprojects]

We are so excited to see this project opening with a wonderful community celebration that we've programmed. Come along!

2/2 authority-wide codes elsewhere – as there aren’t that many yet that have made it out into the public domain.

[HAT Projects @hatprojects]

1/2 Bit late in posting this, but we recently finished our first authority-wide Design Code – covering urban and rural areas across @greatyarmouthbc -  and it is currently out for public consultation. We’d be really interested in thoughts from those of you working on...

[HAT Projects @hatprojects]

Many units are already snapped up but some still available...get in touch!
