CUSTOMER SAYS

Acting as our architects, James Cubitt Architects designed a first class building and supervised the contractor, Cappa and D’Alberto so as to achieve a building of the highest standards.

Jesper T. Lok, Maersk Nigeria Ltd.

We found them very professional and they delivered value and continued to guide us well after the project had been delivered. The project was completed in line with the pre-agreed timelines and any deviations on week to week progress were communicated. They were a delight to work with and exceeded the service standard that J.P. Morgan had set as a benchmark on this project.

Tosin Adewuyi, Managing Director and Senior Country Officer J.P. Morgan

The company recently designed and supervised major refurbishment works on behalf of Dangote Industries Limited in our present head office building in Lagos, James Cubitt Architects are also currently under consideration for the design and project management of our permanent Headquarters building coming up soon in Ikoyi, Lagos. We are immensely satisfied with the quality of works executed by the company (James Cubitt Architects) and do not hesitate to recommend them.

Nkem O. Osuagwu, General Manager, Estate Dangote Industries Limited

I must say that the services of JCA were functional, innovative and generally outstanding. The design saved the University substantial funds when we had a fire outbreak from the air conditioning system (which was restricted to the mid-chute in the building) in 1993/1994 or so. The Senate House of the University of Lagos built some 30 years ago remains iconic in the Nigerian landscape ( especially in Lagos)

O. Ibidapo- Obe FAS, FAEng., Former Vice Chancellor , University of Lagos, Akoka (UNILAG) (2002-2007)

James Cubitt Architects is an enthusiastic and capable practice who are embracing the advance of computer aided design.

We have no hesitation in recommending them to an employer looking for a high quality architectural and project management service in West Africa

Ing. W. Tulling, SHELL TRUSTEES (NIGERIA) LIMITED

James Cubitt Architects has an outstanding reputation as a company that provided excellent services and personal attention to client’s needs. I have truly enjoyed working with them.

Thomas Shearer, AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL, LAGOS

They have become part of the “dream” for substantial high profile building projects in Nigeria and as far we are aware , they have delivered as promised, with innovation, adding value , saving costs and through their project management they kept so many projects on track and within or below budget which is a major achievement in construction industry worldwide.

JDI, INVESTMENT COMPANY

Throughout the project( United Nations Head Quarters in Nigeria), they showed great vision and their design proposals were innovative, sympathetic and rigorous. Their designs and solutions to problems were creative and imaginative whilst functional.
