Lignacite Team
Our business has always been a family affair. From an opportunity spotted in the 1940s to a 21st century organisation working on iconic builds, mixed use developments and modern homes, the founding de Lotbiniere family have remained a constant.
Now in their fourth generation, we are currently led by Chairman, Giles de Lotbiniere. He is supported by Tessa de Lotbiniere and sons Tom and Johnny, as well as experienced and knowledgeable management, sales and marketing teams.
