After studying architecture at university and working for several practices in the south of England, Luke spent time working on experimental timber architecture including with Studio in the Woods & Dartmoor Arts. Luke also worked in New Zealand delivering projects focused around innovative, lightweight timber buildings. He returned to the UK to work at Carpenter Oak.

Since his role as Managing Director in 2018, Luke has focused on building and engineering ambitious timber projects in the UK, Europe and Middle East. He has delivered a number of RIBA award-winning projects including Redhill Barn, extension to Grade II* Radley College Chapel and The Boathouse.

Alongside a passion for timber, Luke loves exploring Dartmoor & the Devon coast with his young family.
