About
Founders James and Alex met whilst working at one of the UK’s largest combined architectural and engineering practices. With a shared passion for collaboration and architectural excellence, Jensen Hunt Design was formed.
After a divergence of career paths, collecting valuable experience and skills on their respective journeys they combined forces to build a design-focused engineering practise based in London, delivering innovation and high quality designs that serve their clients and the environment.

The spark of our consultancy was lit when founders James and Alex met at one of the UK’s largest combined architectural and engineering practices. Through a shared desire for a life well-lived and a planet well-loved, Jensen Hunt came to be, with James and Alex leading the business towards creating a positive impact through sustainability in the built environment.
Our generation holds the key to environmental progress. Without action now, our future generations will face irreparable damage, and the fight to save our home will be lost. The construction and building sector is responsible for over a third of global carbon emissions, and we are determined to play our part in lowering that statistic through sustainable solutions and forward thinking. Join us on this journey to a greener, cleaner future through conscious structural engineering.
We believe in a seamless integration of innovative engineering and high-end aesthetics, in style, design, and impact you can feel. We believe in projects with sustainability woven into their very fabric. Through collaboration with us, we can ensure a project built with environmental focus without comprimising on design. Give us a challenge, and we’ll use it as our motivator.
Meet our hardworking team of passionate, experienced individuals, dedicated to structure solutions with a positive impact.
