At Fenton Holloway, we provide innovative and cost-effective engineering solutions for a wide range of buildings, including niche and bespoke buildings, and structures with complex geometry.
By drawing upon our extensive experience, technical expertise, and creative approach to problem-solving, we deliver exceptional design solutions for an array of construction and redevelopment projects, from conventional to geometrically intricate buildings.
No Project Is Beyond Our Imagination Or Capability
Whether we are designing newbuild or reimagining existing spaces, we employ the latest advanced structural engineering design techniques and processes to achieve outstanding results that are grounded in a rigorous evaluation of construction methods, materials, resources, costs, and risks.
We are happy to undertake traditional building projects in any sector and also possess the technical skills, knowledge, and technologies to design highly complex geometrical and multifaceted buildings that balance aesthetics, functionality, and sustainability.
- Traditional structures
- Innovative structures
- Long-span structures
- Multi-storey buildings

Projects
Harford Manor
Harford Manor was envisaged as a 2000 m² ‘super-home’, a sumptuous residence with all kinds of luxuries built with high-quality materials and finishes. The house has six bedrooms with private bathrooms, as well as staff accommodation, two kitchens, a double height central galleria, dining hall, split level sitting room, cinema, library, indoor swimming pool and leisure complex.
AIB Enterprise Pavilion
The Enterprise Pavilion at the Arts University of Bournemouth comprises modular studios for start-up enterprises sited around a digital imaging facilities house. The contrast between functions is also expressed in the structure, with the facilities house defined as a massive clear-cut timber cube, which is set against the individual timber studio units slotted into an exposed steel frame.
Freestyle Park, Moscow
Fenton Holloway worked in collaboration with MGPI and ABD Architects on the 280000 m², 100m-high, 420m-long Freestyle Park in Moscow incorporates a 37000 m² snow zone, designed by and using snow-making technology from Acer Snowmec Ltd. The building also houses an Aquapark, multi-screen cinemas, hotel, apartments, Conference Centre, retail, entertainment and extensive multi-storey car parking.
