Jake Low
Jake has a degree in industrial design from Loughborough university. He spent his first summer as a graduate in Switzerland developing a design that won first prize in the Showerlux student competition. Following this and a short time doing product design for the Body Shop, he caught the 'architecture bug' and now runs his own architecture & design practice JAK Studio with his 2 business partners. He is married and lives in West London.

A few bits about jake:
* as an impoverished industrial design student spent one summer working as a london bin-man under a militant ex-marine boss who timed him with a stopwatch as he ran back and forth between bins
* once played a warm-up set in a Nottingham club for Norman Jay MBE
* is happiest and most at peace on a long run on the Hammersmith river bank
* hates shaving so much he had a 'george micheal' stubble on his wedding day
* is born and bred in london and so is considered an 'ethnic minority' by a lot of his friends and clients based in london where hardly anyone is actually from this city!

Anushe Low
Anushe Low Is a fully fledged architect having qualified from Westminster University, London in 2002. Having worked in several small and large practices around London since, she decided to take a break from the rat race and now prefers the slower pace and freedom of freelancing from home. She is married to jake and so obviously lives in west london too.
