About us

G1 was formed to provide a focused and defined architectural and design service to clients in the hotel and resort sector.

G1's founder, Gordon Pickering, brings more than 30 years of experience in the design of hotels and resorts, serviced residences, hotel refurbishments and spas and has successfully delivered projects in the UK, Europe, Middle East, Asia and Africa. Our continued success and strong client base bear testimony to our expertise and the trust our clients have in us. Along with our talented team of architects and designers, we are a well-traveled and culturally-sensitive group of people who are passionate about our work.

We have worked with most global brands and are supported and endorsed by many of the international operators. We understand their products and are able to deliver creative solutions to often complex briefs, unlocking value and finding hidden revenue-generating opportunities.

Above all, G1 fosters a creative culture. We combine deep experience and knowledge of hotels with strategic, rational, value-driven decisions and a huge passion for creative design. Nothing is more important to us than delivering beautiful, memorable buildings.
