Holly Bate

Originally from Warrington, Holly joined HPA to begin her year out in practice (Part 1) after completing her undergraduate Architecture course at the University of Huddersfield in May 2021. As a Postgraduate Architect’s Apprentice, Holly will be working with HPA during the four years of her Apprenticeship Degree, by the end of which she will be fully qualified as an Architect.

As part of her Apprenticeship, Holly is working towards her RIBA Part 2 and 3 qualifications, learning a range of technical skills and appropriate knowledge that can be applied to the practice. Additionally, Holly collaborates with fellow students in teaching and learning new software and technologies, as a step towards improving her own individual architectural style moving forwards.

With four years of experience at HPA, Holly has gained practical expertise in a range of high-end residential and leisure projects. She possesses a strong interest in sustainability and green architecture. Holly is actively expanding her knowledge in these areas, driven by a desire to contribute to a positive environmental impact through her future work in addressing the Climate Crisis.

Holly is a huge dog lover and enjoys long walks with her two dogs, Frank and Bean.
