DJSA – Practice Profile
1
Practice Profile
David J. Stewart Associates is an RIBA Chartered Practice and was established in
October 1984 in Banbury, Oxfordshire, UK.
David Stewart was given the opportunity to acquire the English office of McAlister
Armstrong and Partners in 1984 having joined them in 1979.
DJSA comprises of fully qualified Architects, senior Architectural Assistants, and junior
Architectural Assistants with administrative support. We also work with experienced
Consultant Architects who help support our workload when required. This allows DJSA as
a practice to be flexible, responsive and maintain quality. In maintaining our ISO 9001
Quality Management procedures and the requirements of a Chartered Practice we promote
continuing professional development throughout all levels within the practice.
Under the direction of David Stewart, the Practice grew steadily and occupied period
premises at Hightown Road, until 2004. In 2004 the Practice moved into new bespoke
office space on the Hightown Road site, which was been developed to ensure potential
for further controlled growth. In 2015 the Practice moved away from Hightown Road
into serviced offices in Bloxham.
The development of our Commercial Client base has included commissions from a
number of Nationally based Companies with development requirements throughout the
U.K. The Practice has adopted a policy of immediate response to accommodate these
Client requirements and has continued to invest for growth.
During the early 1990's as recession began to affect the Construction Industry, the
Practice was fortunate to retain a healthy project portfolio with its existing Motor Trade
Clients. As the quantity of commercial projects began to diminish our expertise in
Automotive projects enabled us to progress whilst others were regressing. This
continued work allowed us to retain our full compliment of experienced staff and to build
upon our specialisation at a time when there was a real requirement for Architectural
Practices to be able to demonstrate specialist skills in a particular field.
During 1992 and 1993, we demonstrated our commitment to Quality by being one of the
first architectural practices in the UK to register and develop procedures under BS5750
(now ISO 9001:2008). This work was rewarded with third party accreditation by Lloyds
Register Quality Assurance Ltd. in July 1993 and recently upgraded to the ISO
9001:2008 standard. Our Quality Policy reflects our commitment to Client satisfaction.

DJSA are also members of Constructionline relating to their desired technical,
managerial and financial standards and have been awarded their Qualification
Certificate under the disciplines of Architecture and Project Management. The Practice
builds upon its awareness of current and rapidly changing legislation. Our commitment
to I.T. ensures that we keep pace with technical advances and legislative changes.

Environmental Policy Statement
As Architects David J Stewart Associates acknowledges the need to limit the effects
of its business activities on the Environment and to actively pursue a policy of reduction
in energy usage and emissions of Greenhouse Gases that contribute to Global
Warming.
We aim to implement all reasonably practicable measures to prevent pollution to the
environment and comply with all current environmental regulations, legislation and other
requirements.

Ensure that we meet or exceed all relevant and current environmental
legislation and other requirements regarding our business operations.

Strive to ensure that all our wastes are handled, stored and disposed of as
required not only by current legislation but as examples of best practice. Work
to reduce the amount of waste produced in terms of both office and other
waste. Investigate all opportunities for increasing recycling initiatives

Investigate measures which would reduce the consumption of raw materials

Strive to minimise the risk of pollutant disposal to water, land and air

Provide appropriate training to our employees to enable them to implement
this environmental policy. Communicate this policy to contractors as well as
our own employees.

Minimise the environmental impact of our business operations as guided by
the international standard for environmental management systems BS EN
ISO14001:2004

Exercise control as far as possible, over the environmental impacts arising as a
result of work being undertaken on our behalf by our subcontractors, suppliers
and maintenance contractors

Undertake a review of this policy in light of any new knowledge, changing
legislation, environmental impacts or public concerns.

Strive to achieve continual improvement with regard to environmental
management.

Environmental Policy – Implementation
David J Stewart Associates recognise that the products of our designs will have a
greater environmental impact than our own operations therefore we are further
committed to exercising our professional skills in such a way as to minimise
environmental impact in so far as this is possible within the instructions received from
our clients.
We have also successfully applied sustainability criteria to motor dealership projects which
have resulted in energy savings of 10% and above. Key design measures that can be used
are:

Summertime temperature control can be primarily provided by high and low level
ventilation, however wet underfloor systems can have the facility to provide
chilled water to showroom areas via heat pump systems. Providing cool water to
underfloor pipework can limit peak summer temperatures and prevent excessive
space temperatures and the need for air conditioning.

Exposed concrete slabs at ground level to increase buildings thermal mass thus
allowing beneficial use of solar gains to moderate temperature change, and thus
reducing peak heating and cooling demands

Provision of shading on the external façade providing reduced solar gain and
peak internal temperatures

Natural ventilation of showroom to reduce cooling energy use, including night
time ventilation to maximise the benefit from lower night time temperatures to
cool the exposed thermal mass.

Improved lighting control and lamp efficiency
Implementing our environmental policy on projects, and establishing design principles
with efficient energy systems and responsible selection of materials, can lead to
environmentally responsible developments.
We have successfully implemented sustainability measures in many of our social
housing schemes with many projects achieving level 3 under the Code for Sustainable
Homes. We are currently working on projects that are designed to meet levels 4 and 5
under the Code. Some of the design measures used on our housing projects include:

Solar hot water collection for domestic hot water systems.

Photovoltaic panels for the on site generation of electricity.

Responsible selection of materials, chosen for their green credentials using
the BRE Green Guide.

Building with excellent thermal performance and high levels of air tightness
reducing the amount of energy required for heating.

Providing cycle storage and separate bin storage for recycling household
waste.

Energy efficient lighting and water saving features such as low flush toilets and
water recycling.

Bryan House, Bicester
This development provides affordable, flexible housing for rent to local families. This
exemplar scheme, part of the Eco Bicester initiative, delivers homes to Code For
Sustainable Homes Levels 4 and 5.
The development involved the demolition of the existing accommodation, which fell
short of current accommodation standards. The accommodation covers 23 units
across the site of 1 & 2 Bed Apartments with some allowing for split occupancy and
2, 3 & 4 Bed Houses.
Completed in October 2012, the project is now being monitored by Sanctuary Green
Technologies with Oxford Brookes University through the Technology Strategy
Board’s (TSB) Building Performance Evaluation (BPE) Programme.
12
Orchard Way, Banbury
The Orchard Way project will involve the redevelopment of a dilapidated site
containing 8 shops, 4 maisonettes and 9 one bedroom flats. This Brownfield
development will provide 33 new one and two bedroom flats and 4 retail units.
This scheme is designed to respond to its context, maximising the visibility of the
retail units whilst responding to the challenge of a sloped topography and corner plot.
Key to the scheme is the clear definition between public and private space with all
residential units level three for code for sustainable homes.
13
Bramley Close, Kidlington
The site is on the Eastern edge of Kidlington in the Oxford Greenbelt and as such
was subject to planning restrictions. DJSA were involved in extensive consultation
with the local authority in establishing the need and suitability of the site.
The layout has been designed to respect the rural character of the area whilst still
providing modern community based facilities like the large Public Open Space. The
location and orientation of units has been considered and to maximise the views
available both internal and external to the site.
The dwellings achieve Level 3 of the Code for Sustainable Homes and full Lifetime
Homes.
14
Langford Court, Bicester
This new build development for three houses replaces an unused corner of the local
area that previously contained disused garages, the three bedroom houses in
Bicester provide social housing to rent for local families. Operated by Charter
Community Homes, part of the Sanctuary Housing Association.
These dwellings achieve Level 3 under the Code for Sustainable Homes built to
standards 25% better than current Building Regulations. The project makes use of
modern methods of construction, the use solar thermal panels for heating water,
along with of energy and water saving features.
15
Bloxham Road, Banbury
This project created two separate extensions to an existing three bedroom house.
The side extension built with carefully selected brick to match the existing dwelling
included the development of new bedrooms and bathrooms at first floor level, along
with a new study and bigger kitchen and garage space on the ground floor.
In addition, the clients wanted to replace a poorly constructed existing extension with
a new dining and living area overlooking the rear garden. This extension used an oak
frame with a zinc roof to create a striking contemporary feel.
16
Albany Mews, Old Windsor
This project involved the conversion of a former retail unit, located within a
predominantly residential street in Old Windsor. The existing single storey building
occupied a large footprint almost the entire width of the narrow site.
By subdividing the existing building, we were able to create four large dwellings
within the footprint. The addition of the modern bay windows and inclusion of large
roof lights ensure all rooms have high levels of natural light.
17
The Limes, Shenington
Extension and refurbishment of existing Grade II listed house. Conversion of
outbuildings and barns to accommodation annex and home-office.
The principal extension provides a fine living space with vaulted ceiling and exposed
timbers with a salvaged period fireplace, creating a bold focal point to the room, with
spectacular outward views across the garden and local countryside.
The outbuildings create extremely comfortable guest accommodation all detailed to
a very high standard with self-contained kitchen and an adjacent home office facility.

The building is designed to reflect the current aspirations of the vehicle
manufacturer whilst addressing the perception of the building from the
approach to the Silverlink Retail Park from the west. Despite the relatively
low level of the site (in relation to the main road and roundabout) the
building allows good views of the vehicles on display, particularly from
traffic approaching and passing the site on Atmel Way.
The whole development reflects the modern corporate image of Honda, UK.

the up to the minute environment expected in a new-car sales facility.
Client: Sutton Park Motor Company Ltd.
Location: Lichfield Road, Tamworth
Contractor: Ashe Construction Ltd
21

movements towards the site. The development comprises a showroom, workshop,
parts department and valet facilities. There are areas for new and used car display,
including an all terrain display for off road vehicles.
The whole development incorporates a varied palette of materials, exposed steel with

Location: Stourbridge
Contractor: MCS Group
24
Mercedes Benz Shrewsbury
A new motor dealership development for the Mercedes Benz Brand. The dealership
includes provision for the sales and service of vehicles and associated preparation
works and valeting.
The positioning of the building was carefully considered in relation to many
parameters. The desire to form a prominent ‘Gateway’ building to Enterprise
roundabout along with the need to address the function and movement within the
site. The relationship of vehicle display, customer parking and the link to the internal
space and operation, have all directed the design process.
The main elevations of the showroom are fully glazed and form the focus to both
Enterprise roundabout and Vanguard Way.
The blue proscenium entrance archway focuses the symmetry of the main entrance
and provides a statement.
The colinade and over sailing roof gives depth and interest to the elevation in front of
the full height of glazed curtain walling showcasing the product. The remainder of the
building being more functional represents the working side of the development.
Composite cladding laid horizontally with matching vehicle and pedestrian entrances.
The Prep Building follows a similar form of a simple language reflecting the ‘working’
nature of the use. The Prep Building and east facing showroom where no first floor
area is required have been lowered. This area of roof provides an opportunity for
external plant to be hidden behind a parapet detail.
Client: Drayton
Location: Shrewsbury
Contractor: MCS Group Ltd
25
Ryeford Arms, Stonehouse
Ryeford Arms is a new residential care home for Special Needs currently under
construction. This is the first phase of a planned relocation of residents and
