etch Associates

Bio

tch Associates are an innovative and collaborative practice formed by David Behan, Richard Turner and David Harris, with 60 years combined experience within the construction industry. All have worked together directly for over 12 years on a wide range of projects from large scale, new-build complex laboratory buildings to sensitive listed building refurbishments. With a passion for low energy buildings, technical excellence, innovation and design quality, our team is focused on delivering outstanding service to our clients and design partners and making etch the consultant of choice across a wide range of sectors. The business is founded with the express aim of delivering low carbon design through technical excellence, innovation and close collaboration with equally passionate design partners. We feel that it is our responsibility, particularly within the midst of a climate crisis, to push the envelope with respect to design solutions. We take great pride in what we do and work exceptionally hard to ensure a right first-time culture. This necessitates close collaboration with our design colleagues and open communication.
