Press Releases
HONG KONG, 20 October 2008 -- /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- Aedas Architects announces today the appointment of a Managing Director for India. Nick James, veteran of both public and private practice in the UK and Kazakhstan, will now lead Adeas’ expansion in India. His task is to develop an already successful existing team in Aedas’ Indian offices to deliver inspirational international design in the dynamic Indian market. Formerly Regional Director for Aedas Kazakhstan, in Almaty and Astana, Nick led a number of international teams from across the Aedas global network to the successful completion of more than thirty prestige projects in Kazakhstan ranging from masterplanning new suburbs for Astana on sites of up to 500 hectares, to high rise city towers and upmarket residential developments in Almaty. Before joining Aedas, Nick’s career ranged from private practice, where he gained a number of design awards as a partner in his own company, to his position as principal architect for local authorities in both Yorkshire and Shropshire UK. He led multidisciplinary teams in a wide range of complex specialist projects. With a broad range of project types in his portfolio, and experienced in serving clients from both the public and private sectors, Nick James will bring in his diverse experience of more than two decades to Aedas’ forward-looking Indian bureau. About India he said: "I am a great believer in the Aedas vision of meeting and exceeding expectations by our unique position. We have a worldwide network of design talent, with local offices combining local and international staff; so we fit the best expertise for the project type with the local experience and know-how which allows us to deliver inspirational designs which really work in the places where we build them. I am delighted to be joining a positive minded and winning existing team in India, and I look forward to the challenge of developing it to even greater success in a wider market" Valued as one of the "two great markets of the future" by Aedas’ CEO David Roberts in a recent interview with Retail & Leisure International, India is the latest strategic part of Aedas’ global operation. Aedas first landed on India with a large-scale infrastructure project of pioneering significance. In 2004, Aedas undertook full architectural services to Delhi’s first ever underground metro stations construction, including design, planning, building and documentation. The successful completion of the first four stations of the capital’s mass transit system marked the foremost milestone of Aedas’ commitment to the Indian market. The Practice’s pledge is further recognised by its launching of offices in Mumbai and Bangalore in 2007 to embark upon a series of innovative projects to merge global vibrancy and local culture into design excellence. India is only one of the exemplars of Aedas’ capacity in delivery innovative and dynamic design solutions to new markets; together with Central Eastern Europe, the Middle East, China and South America, new momentum are being shaped up in Aedas’ expansion in these markets up in the growth. Being the fourth largest architectural practice in the world, Aedas has well established its network over the four continents. Committing to a culture of design excellence, the award-winning Practice has a portfolio of a wide array of projects, spanning from private luxury residences, educational institutions, high-rise commercial towers, mixed-use development, integrated resorts to airports and cruise terminals. It is Aedas’ mission to create sustainable design solutions in the future, and for the future. Aedas will be exhibiting in ‘Indian Aviation Conference 2008’ Hyderabad on 15-18 October and ‘Cityscape India 2008’ Mumbai on 8-10 December.
