About Tricker Blackie Associates

Tricker Blackie Associates evolved from James Blackie’s practice, started in 1971, when Richard Tricker joined forces with him in 1991. The new practice added Richard’s skills and experience in the commercial field to James’ expertise in domestic and community design and conservation work.

This worked well with the practice expanding continuously until Richard’s untimely death in 2013. Undoubtedly this was a major setback which has now been overcome with the appointment of Ian O’Hanlon RIBA and the general revitalisation of the practice that this engendered.

The practice principles are still intact and ongoing – these are to serve our clients with loyalty and integrity giving them the benefit of our design skills to produce the best possible solution for them – maybe not the one they originally envisaged but hopefully far better. Our expertise includes crisp modern and harmonious contextual design, conservation of listed buildings, contract administration and project management – a full architectural service for our clients and their projects.
