Ex-DY Davies staff move on

Two director-level casualties from a restructure at architecture group DY Davies, Jon Wealleans and John Muir, are to set up a practice concentrating on leisure and retail design.

They expect to be joined in the New Year by Martyn Kemp, who has also resigned from the DY Davies board.

Four more directors, including Colin Brock and Chris Arden, have left. At least two technical staff have been made redundant. Wealleans says the restructure has ‘been a bit acrimonious’.
