New decade. New website. New logo!

A very warm welcome to our new website!

We have been busy working with Cubby Studio to develop not only an exciting new website, but also the DB3 identity to guide us into this new decade as well as a very new next chapter for us all.

 

DB3 stands for DarntonB3

With a history of almost 140 years of Architecture, we have been constantly evolving and adapting to the changing times. What has remained consistent is that you can always rely on us to deliver designs for spaces for people to work, live, learn, relax and be inspired by, and we wanted to reflect this in our new branding.

You have probably already heard us refer to ourselves as DB3 for quite some time now, so we decided to take the next step and build this into our logo. We hope you like it as much as we do.

Working with Cubby

Working with Cubby

We enjoyed teaming up with likeminded creative agency Cubby Studio. They stepped straight into our shoes and thus knew exactly what was creatively needed and they certainly delivered. We are sure you will agree the outcome speaks for itself.

What’s new?

Not only does our website boast a brand new look, feel and functionality, here are our top 3 new features:

  • Live projects: Here you can follow some of our key projects and get glimpses of what is happening behind the scenes and an insight into how we work. Our first live project is Llys Cadwyn.
  • DB3 Studios: We have seven studios across the UK, each with their own rich history and achievements. On our contact page you can find out a bit more about each one now.
  • Thought Leadership: We will be posting white papers and industry trends etc. Guest bloggers are also welcome, so if you have an interesting content idea you would like to publish contact marketing@darntonb3.com

So... What’s next?

So... What’s next?

This is just the beginning! For the launch we have worked in threes – we are DB3 after all! So right now you will find our top three expertise, sectors and projects.

Take a look!

So, without further ado, we welcome you to take a look around our new website and if you have any feedback then get in touch with marketing@darntonb3.com
