Serving private, corporate, and public clients, the firm prioritizes creating outstanding projects while fostering a vibrant, egalitarian office environment. ACME's approach to architecture and design is collaborative, emphasizing flat hierarchies to encourage ownership, entitlement, and responsibility among its team. This culture attracts top talent, vital to ACME's mission of delivering innovative and sustainable design solutions.
ACME's portfolio showcases a diverse range of projects. Notable achievements include winning the Civic Trust Awards 2024 for REWE Green Farming and the Structural Steel Design Awards 2023 for the Copr Bay Bridge in Swansea. The firm's commitment to sustainability is evident in their annual carbon audits and their goal towards net-zero carbon buildings. They have significantly reduced their carbon footprint per employee and aim to create buildings that are carbon-free in use.
The restoration of Folkestone's Grade II* listed Leas Lift, a water-balanced funicular lift, exemplifies ACME's expertise in reviving historical structures. The Earls Court, London project, the Florattica in London, which won the Gold Key Awards 2023 and UK Property Awards 2023, further illustrate their breadth in urban and interior design.
ACME's team comprises a diverse group of international professionals, each bringing unique skills and experiences to the practice.
