About / Team

Simon Downing
Associate

As an Associate in Core Five’s Arts, Culture, Sport, and Leisure team, I understand the key commercial and qualitative drivers for cultural and heritage buildings. This enables me to deliver clear and reliable advice on these complex projects. Our core values of Integrity, Collaborate and Innovation particularly resonate with this sector, which is of increasing importance, providing inspiration and escape in challenging times.

I joined Core Five in 2015 and I am privileged to have over 30 years of project experience on arts, cultural and heritage buildings, with an understanding of cost, function, and the particular needs of cultural Clients. I have worked on projects in the UK, Nordic Region, and the Middle East, ranging from museums, visitor centres, theatres, galleries, and cultural centres, through to commercial offices, research, and healthcare projects. Key Clients have included the British Library, the Science Museum, the Royal Academy of Arts, the Royal Festival Hall, and the National Museum of Denmark.

As the appointed Quality Manager, I contribute to our Processes Working Group, responsible for the quality of our work.

What attracted you to join Core Five?

The opportunity of working in a culture that prioritizes collaboration and integrity.

What is your favourite building and why?

The Royal Festival Hall. Great Architecture and it epitomizes a spirit of rebuilding after a period of conflict.
