As we begin our next chapter, we welcome Sarah Primarolo into her new role as Partner of Playle & Partners LLP!

Looking back at Sarah’s career to date – we asked, what was the first project she worked on? And what is Sarah best known for?  Read on to find out… 

What was the first project you worked on?

The Wharf Nursery School in Godalming for Surrey County Council working alongside Luke.  It was a large purpose-built building to replace an existing out-dated nursery facility.

Funniest project moment  

Watching a Contract Director start a progress meeting with “look how quickly I can eat this packet of jam doughnuts”.  It was very bizarre, I think he stuffed three in one go!

Most unusual project  

The Library refurbishment at the Institutfrançais in South Kensington, where the design meetings were translated into French so that we could make design decisions with the client team.

Funniest memory at P&P

During the organisation stage of the ‘mince pie challenge’, a Practice Partner asked whether he could be judged on the Bakewell tarts he had brought as he didn’t like mince pies.

Best known for 

Baking a Gin & tonic cake for the Macmillan coffee morning, this was the year after I baked a ‘chocolate, avocado and pistachio’ cake that only Paul Turner was kind enough to eat!
