Work commences on stunning new HQ

Lincoln-based construction firm Stirlin has moved on to site to build a purpose-designed headquarters for a family-run estate, with LK2 Architects pairing natural stone and a pantile roof with modern office space.

Stirlin has started work on a new headquarters for a private client in Aisthorpe. The building is designed from the ground up around the way the client works, and it is due to be completed for use in early 2027.

LK2 Architects have composed a building that stands out whilst blending in. Natural stone walls and a pantile roof pick up the character of the countryside around it, while inside the offices are modern and laid out for the client’s day-to-day operation.

Quality runs through the brief. Materials have been chosen to last, and the detailing has been worked through with the same care, so the finished building should not just look great but serve the clients for many years to come.

Archaeological work and the first stages of construction are already underway. The main build follows over the coming months.

James Kirby, director at Stirlin, said: “We’re very pleased to have started work on what is an exciting project for a valued private client. The scheme has been carefully designed to create a high-quality modern headquarters while remaining sympathetic to its rural surroundings.

“There is a real emphasis on quality materials, traditional detailing and longevity, ensuring the finished building not only looks right within its setting, but is also built to stand the test of time for the people who will use it.

“It’s always rewarding to see a project move from the planning and design stages into construction and we’re looking forward to working closely with the project team to bring the client’s vision to life.”

LK2 Architects added: “We are proud to be part of the highly skilled and local project team, working towards a new fit-for-purpose office for the family-run client. We look forward to overseeing the design delivery and seeing the new offices in use for the estate in early 2027.”
