Apple IT support for Clerkenwell architects, studios, and design practices
Clerkenwell has the densest concentration of architects and design firms in Europe. Our own office is on St Cross Street, EC1N 8UB, which means most of our Clerkenwell clients are within walking distance. We know the practices, the postcodes, and the specific infrastructure needs of design-led businesses here.

What Clerkenwell needs from its IT partner
Local knowledge, built in
Architecture and design practices run a distinctive stack: native macOS workstations for ArchiCAD, Rhino, and V-Ray; Parallels for Revit and AutoCAD; Adobe CC across the studio; and NAS storage with 10GbE networking to serve enormous CAD and render files without bottlenecks. We specify, deploy, and manage all of it. Plotters, large-format printers, meeting room AV for client presentations, and physical network infrastructure are part of the service, not an add-on.
Our Clerkenwell clients get the fastest on-site response of any borough we cover. Most callouts are under 30 minutes from office to desk. If your practice is off Clerkenwell Green, along Exmouth Market, or anywhere in EC1, you are within a 15-minute walk.
Common questions
Frequently asked questions about Mac support in Clerkenwell
Do you specify and deploy Mac workstations for architectural software?
Yes. We spec Mac Studios, Mac Pros, and M-series MacBook Pros to match ArchiCAD, Rhino, and V-Ray workloads at your actual project sizes. No generic off-the-shelf configs. We also handle Parallels licensing and configuration for Revit and AutoCAD where needed.
Can you support plotters, large-format printers, and meeting room AV in Clerkenwell?
Yes. On-site support for plotters, large-format printing, client-presentation AV, and structured cabling is standard for our Clerkenwell practices. We cover EC1 within 30 minutes for emergency callouts.
What storage solution do you recommend for architectural file libraries?
Synology NAS with 10GbE networking is our default for Clerkenwell practices. Automated backups, RAID, off-site replication, and fast LAN access to shared project libraries. Your whole studio pulls assets at full speed, no more waiting for file transfers.
