Established in 2009, we have extensive experience in designing and delivering innovative buildings across various sectors, including workplaces, housing, and placemaking.

In 2018, we transitioned into an Employee Ownership Trust, reinforcing our identity as a design-focused collective with a diverse range of skills and backgrounds. We are united by a shared passion for progressive architecture and innovative solutions.

Our commitment lies in creating thoughtfully designed spaces that are meant to be utilized and enjoyed. We approach our work as a collective, operating transparently and logically. We reject the notion of a house style and believe in approaching each project with fresh eyes and a unique perspective.

We strive to craft desirable environments for living and working, characterized by meticulous attention to detail and a celebration of the culture, customs, and heritage of their surroundings. By reinforcing a sense of identity and place, we create spaces that resonate with their users.

Through our engaging design process, which involves sketching, model making, drawing, and open discussions, we bring forth remarkable buildings that generate conversations and bring joy to those who experience them.

Our strength lies in the energy and creativity of the individuals we collaborate with. As an Employee Ownership Trust, our organizational structure enables us to foster individual talent and recognize collective achievements. We provide incentives and opportunities for personal growth, as our success is intrinsically tied to the well-being and development of our people. At the end of the day, it's personal—our people are the heart of our business.
