Piercy & Company

Piercy&Company is a British design studio of architects, interior designers and creatives with a shared passion for materials, form, technology and craft. The studio designs at all scales - from masterplans, tall buildings and deep retrofits to interiors and furniture - and are unified by a desire to improve the human experience in a way that is poetic, contextual, resilient and climate responsive. Research partnerships with UCL and Westminster University are integral to the Studio's approach and many of the senior team hold academic posts. Piercy&Co’s research driven approach has resulted in a portfolio of award-winning buildings in the residential, commercial and cultural sectors. The Studio enjoys long-standing relationships with ambitious clients including Argent, Stanhope, British Land, Derwent London and The Crown Estate.  Our residential work is purposefully diverse in scale and budget. From bespoke one-off houses to large multi-residential buildings and masterplans, our work aims to create places that people feel good in. We approach this at both the micro - a human centred approach to spatial planning and material selection - and at the macro - buildings that connect with their specific architectural, cultural and environmental contexts. We are committed to making sustainable and long-lived buildings, believing that the very qualities which make a building resilient over the long term are also those that make a home feel good to live in.  Current projects include 72 social housing apartments on the King’s Cross masterplan at Plot R8; 200 new homes at Paddington Green for Berkeley Group; and 160 homes across two residential towers at Camden Goods Yard. We are also working as part of a six architect team reimagining the former Olympic Park site at East Wick and Sweetwater, designing 300 homes to include market, private rented and affordable tenures with a mix of terraces and apartments. The studio recently completed two buildings for the RIBA award winning Barts Square masterplan in London’s Smithfield Conservation Area with a mix of residential and retail. In 2023 the 110 person studio became an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT).
