Rawls, a leading commercial design studio whose clients include Manchester Arndale, Tower Works Leeds, Leeds Trinity, White Rose and Meadowhall Shopping Centre, has announced the opening of a new Northern office in Manchester.
The expansion marks a significant step in the company’s commitment to providing its unique collaborative and client focused design services to all clients across the UK, and reinforcing their desire to be a UK-wide design partner.
London-HQ’d Rawls noted that Manchester has long been a key location for many of its clients. By establishing an office there, the company is both reinforcing its presence in the region and ensuring it is rooted in it. The move, the firm said, will enable the team to be more accessible, offering local expertise and tailored support.
“Having worked at the heart of Manchester in the Arndale for over a decade, we believe that Manchester is at the heart of a dynamic and creatively led UK, and through our new office look forward to supporting all our clients, both existing and future, in crafting places that inspire,” said Paul Sherwood Rogers, director.

The expansion also aligns with Rawls’ relationship focus.

Rawls’ presence in Manchester is not just about serving existing clients – it’s also about immersing itself in the culture and creativity of the region. By being part of the city, Rawls “will create more bespoke spaces which respond to local needs.”
The new office location is at the heart of Rawls’ dedication to building lasting relationships. Rawls will remain dedicated to quality, two-way conversations with its clients, seeking to understand and respond to their ambitions in the areas they operate in.
