Telford 46 was established by Aris Theodoridis and Manos Tselas on a sunny day in Ierapetra, Crete in January of 2020.

Its story began on a rainy day, six years earlier in Huddersfield of the United Kingdom.

Although Aris and Manos were both from Ierapetra, they met each other through their friends, Constantinos and Alexandros who were also studying Architecture in University of Huddersfield.

They decided to work all together, as a team in Constantinos and Alexandros’ apartment.
This apartment became their first “studio” and brought them together as people and as architects.

The number of the apartment was “46” and the name of the building was “Telford Close”.
The name of “Telford 46 Architects” is a tribute to those memories of how the story began.
