Chapman Taylor’s Manchester Studio celebrates 25 years of design excellence

On Thursday 18 September 2025, Chapman Taylor’s Manchester studio marked a major milestone, its 25th anniversary, with a celebratory evening at Campfield House, Lower Byrom Street, Manchester.

We were delighted to welcome 125 guests to enjoy live music, great food, and the vibrant atmosphere of one of Manchester’s most exciting new venues, as we reflected on a quarter of a century of creativity, collaboration, and design excellence in the city.

From bold beginnings to city-shaping collaborations, the event celebrated the studio’s journey so far and looked ahead to the future with pride and excitement.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us to share in this special moment. Here’s to the next 25 years!
