Our founder
Starting from zero, dreaming big, overcoming obstacles, and achieving mastery.
Jon Arnott
From a young age, our Founder, Jon, has been driven by a deep curiosity for how things work and how they can be improved, which has led him to study architecture and become a pioneer of BIM adoption in the UK.
From helping one of Scotland's oldest practices integrate digital workflows long before it was the norm, leading BIM implementation and digital transformation across complex, global organisations like Scott Brownrigg and Broadway Malyan, becoming one of the youngest Directors in the firm's history, co-leading matterlab/KOPE, where he was instrumental in helping them double their consultancy turnover and transforming the firm into a construction technology (ConTech) focused business and most recently working with one of the UK's most respected and well-known architects, helping them deliver one of Europe's most complex airport refurbishment and expansion programmes.
In his 20+ year career, he has remained at the forefront of BIM, computation, information management, process improvement and digital transformation.
What drives him is delivering practical solutions that help teams reclaim their evenings, focus on what they love, and helping build a healthier, more human way of working.
In his downtime, he loves spending time with his fiancé, drinking wine, travelling, and clapping (Scottish for stroking) as many dogs as possible.
Frequently Asked Questions
Those burning questions you want to ask but might be too shy to.
Do you work with clients outside the UK?

Our company language is English.
How much do you charge?
We price each project based on the brief and needs of the client. We have clearly defined day and hourly rates, and you will receive a clear statement of work along with a fixed price (where possible)
All our costs exclude VAT, and all quotes are valid for 30 days.
How is your team set up?
As a fully remote company, our core team works hard for our clients from wherever it suits them. When we need to hold private meetings, these are done in the privacy of their home or a pre-booked meeting space.
When required, we call upon pre-vetted hand-selected consultants we've previously worked with to work alongside us.
Do you provide advice related to only one software vendor, e.g. Autodesk?
No. We have no ties to any specific technology vendors, so we can offer independent, agnostic advice to ensure you receive best practice information about the best solutions available to solve your challenges.
That said, we are experts in the Autodesk ecosystem, so we are well-versed in their technology stack.
What sets your offering and team apart from others in the industry?
