For eight years, until the formation of Malishev Wilson Engineers in 2004, Philip worked as a senior structural engineer at Dewhurst Macfarlane and Partners, dealing with a wide range of projects using structural glass.

These included: Yurakucho canopy (Tokyo, Japan) and AUDI Glass Cube Reading Room, Riyadh. On the glass cube project he followed up the design work as a resident engineer on site, dealing with contractors’ queries and checking the quality of glass connections.

Due to the complex nature of these projects, Philip was involved in extensive research and testing work whenever the required technical data was limited or unavailable. This enabled him to accumulate invaluable knowledge and experience of glass as a structural material, as well as other associated materials.

Philip’s research lead to a large number of his technical papers being presented to various conferences and lectures around the country and abroad. His teaching experience includes work at the following architectural schools : Bartlet, Architectural Association, Newcastle and also overseas – Delft, Stockholm

In 2000 Philip spent a year in Japan working for Structural Design Group, collaborating with leading architects including Toyo Ito. He was involved in a number of prestigious projects in Tokyo.

Gennady began his engineering career in Russia, where he worked for three years in Moscow for Waterman International dealing with large commercial and public buildings in the city centre, using both British and Russian codes of practice for design. During that period, he was also involved in overseas projects, particularly in Britain where specialist IT and communication tools were used extensively.

In 2000, Gennady moved to London and joined Dewhurst Macfarlane and Partners, where he stayed for four years. During this time, he developed his professional career by working on projects of various sizes and complexity both in the UK and overseas, specializing in high profile and architecturally challenging structures built with all of the major building materials. [including glass and composite materials, tensile fabrics] .

For the last two years, Gennady has mainly focused on business in Russia. As a result, he was instrumental in establishing the presence of Dewhurst Macfarlane and Partners in Moscow, bringing in and designing their first major project in this country. A top hung structural glass façade is the first structure of this kind in Moscow, with work starting on site during 2004.

Gennady continues to promote expertise in the use of structural glass, particularly for architecturally important buildings in Russia, where Malishev Wilson Engineers have an associated office in Moscow with a 15 strong design team and are able to undertake projects of various complexity and value.
