Sophie Way
Architect & Design Director
Sophie, an architect and founding director of Hamer Way, originally contributed the 'Hamer' to its name. She earned her architecture degree at Manchester School of Architecture and qualified as an architect in 2010. After working in Manchester and Birmingham with prestigious firms like Hawkins Brown, Glenn Howells Architects, and Associated Architects, Sophie returned to the North West to continue her dynamic career.
A designer at heart, she possesses a meticulous eye for detail and a passion for unveiling the unexpected, making outstanding design accessible to clients of all scales. Sophie is driven by creating buildings and spaces that seamlessly blend functionality and joy, focusing on the human experience and a sense of place. Her rich career spans residential, education, commercial, conservation, and refurbishment projects across the UK.
"I find the creative process of translating a design brief into reality and the satisfaction it brings our clients immensely rewarding. To me, architecture is more about people than buildings. Blending the client's needs with an understanding of context truly excites me."
