Meet The Team

Abel Hinchliffe

Director
Abel-Hinchliffe-CODA-Bespoke
With a wealth of experience Abel heads up CODA Bespoke, specialising in luxury residential projects both large and small.

With an ingrained love for great design and a pragmatic approach, Abel provides the initial ideas that then go onto become the dream homes our clients love. By meeting with clients to discuss their aspirations for the project, it's his aim to help them develop the vision they have and create a project that includes wow factor and individuality. Once the designs are agreed and the build is underway he then ensures the concept is enforced and delivered the best it can be, right through to site inspections with the builders and final handover.

When the working day is over you will find him spending time with his young family, going for walks or indeed doing whatever his daughters decide will be the best activity for the day..!

Tom Holmes

Associate
Tom-Holmes-CODA-Bespoke
Tom plays a vital part in the CODA Bespoke technical delivery team, focusing on the detailed design, moving projects through building regulations and onto the tender stage.

Once a project has received planning permission it's his job to develop the designs further by layering them with specifications and details until they are ready to be tendered and eventually constructed on site.

By keeping up to date with latest regulations and having a strong awareness of detail, he ensure that projects run as smoothly as possible on site.

Daniel Bull

Associate
Daniel-Cole-CODA-Bespoke
With his skills in 3D design and fly-through visuals, Daniel helps clients get a true understanding of their future home well in advance of anything being built. Positive and approachable, he helps to bring a project to life, even at the early concept stages, with media that captures the whole design, right down to the tiniest detail.

On his days off he likes to spend time with his fiancé and his dog, relaxing and enjoying good food.

His favourite architectural feat is the roman colosseum; considering it was built 2000 years ago the magnitude of it is remarkable.
