Ingouville House

JMEC, a leading construction company in Jersey came to us once again as they needed an offsite construction system to build a new four-storey apartment block with commercial space on the ground floor in a tight construction site nestled in St Helier’s Ingouville Lane.

The building has been designed with Jersey's landscapes in mind, as the exterior features a series of ceramic louvres, built on an exoskeletal frame - inspired by the island's tidal movements.

Each louvre has a unique glazed, hand-crafted appearance, finished in various shades of emerald, jade and turquoise.

Having seen the massive advantages of the HadleyFRAME system from our previous project at Duhamel Lane, the light-gauge steel framing was the obvious choice for Ingouville House.

In the coming months, we’ll be working closely with JMEC and Hadley to thoroughly plan the construction project ahead — finding the ideal spot for a crane with minimal disruption to the community, and scheduling the deliveries of our offsite pre-panelised modules to reduce the amount of laydown space they need on site.

And with its unique curved wall façade in the external design, we’ll be maximising on the flexibility of the HadleyFRAME system to preserve the striking aesthetic.

Having been educated and grown up in Guernsey and developing a passion for technical design work, information technology and an intrigue for building design and history during his GCSE years, Oliver decided to commence his career in 1999 as an Architectural Technologist with Lovell Ozanne one of the largest architectural practices in the Channel Islands, During those first inspiring 9 years he gained his BTEC HNC qualification increasing his fundamental experience and developing his knowledge base by working on multi-million pound commercial and residential developments including, Mixed Use and Redevelopment Areas (MURA), offices, apartments and industrial units.

Moving to the States of Guernsey’s Property Services Team in 2008, Oliver was able to learn invaluable working skills and practices, increasing his expanding skillset in tendering and contract administration, whilst having the opportunity to work on public buildings and the differing challenges brought about by these types of projects. These projects encompassed education premises, States buildings with high security requirements, projects at the airport and harbours and fully accessible health facilities. Full Accessibility audits for the health facilities became a prominent project for Oliver as his career progressed and he carried out a number of audits and reports for substantial business within the Island.

Now with a total of 21 years’ experience within the industry, his expansive knowledge not only covers all areas of a very vast field, but includes all aspects of a project from inception right through to the final handover of a completed project; which, for Oliver is the most rewarding experience.

Oliver’s exceptional wealth of knowledge has lead him to gain his chartership with the Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists and was formally invited to become an Interview Assessor for the Institute in 2015, a position limited to only a small number and in which someone can only be invited by the Institute. Oliver completed the necessary assessor training a few months later.

Ever striving to continue growing and expanding his professional knowledge, Oliver is a driven member of PF+A and one of the top in his field. With his professional yet friendly approachable nature he is an individual able to facilitate and communicate to clients, contractors, sub-contractors and other third parties to ensure that a project is always the best it can be. Internally an exceptional trainer to the less experienced members of the team with an ease of teaching methods to ensure an unseamingly level of continuity for their development.

In his spare time Oliver enjoys spending time with his young family of three daughters, experiencing travelling and cultural diversity and of course Guernsey’s beautiful outdoor environment.
