Description

Piercy&Company is a London-based studio of architects, interior designers and researchers, fuelled by a shared passion for materials, form, technology and craft. Founded in 2002 by architect Stuart Piercy, the practice now numbers more than 80 people working together in a studio and workshop in Camden under a collaborative design house model.

The studio believes that, at its best, architecture can provoke memories, shape experiences and prompt change. Across scales and typologies, from cutlery to city, the same attention to detail and commitment to design integrity applies. Working closely with engineers, consultant teams and clients, Piercy&Company has built particular expertise in the reuse, retention and re-enlivening of existing structures, combining advanced digital design and fabrication with traditional materials and forms in the search for sustainable, climate-responsive architecture.

This research-driven approach has produced an award-winning portfolio across the commercial, residential and cultural sectors, with long-standing clients including Derwent London, British Land, The Crown Estate, Stanhope and Berkeley. Recent and current work ranges from the Boston Consulting Group London HQ and deep retrofits such as 25 Savile Row and Turnmill to new homes at Camden Goods Yard and Paddington Green and the award-winning Kew House.

In 2022, Piercy&Company became an employee ownership trust, solidifying its design house approach. The studio is working towards becoming a net zero business by 2040.

Culture

Piercy&Company is a practice of more than 80 architects, designers and researchers working together in a studio designed to support a shared passion for materials, form, technology and craft. The studio is a collaborative 'design house', a place for exchange, active production and the testing of ideas, forms and materials. Its research and craft-led approach has been recognised with awards including BD Office Architect of the Year 2025, BD Interior Architect of the Year 2023, and multiple RIBA London and National Awards.

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

We are always looking for talented, ambitious individuals to join our team at all levels. We actively encourage applications from women, the LGBTQ+ community and people from ethnic minorities, as these groups are currently under-represented throughout the building industry. Piercy&Company is an equal opportunities employer dedicated to closing this gap and aims to build a workforce of skilled professionals from a range of diverse backgrounds.

Values

We are a studio of architects, interior designers and researchers, fuelled by a shared passion for materials, form, technology and craft. We believe that, at its best, architecture can provoke memories, shape experiences and prompt change. Across scales and typologies, from cutlery to city, we follow the principle that intensive thought and problem-solving at the design input stage leads to an intensity of effect for users and the public at the built output stage. We work in a collaborative 'design house' model: a place for exchange, active production and the testing of ideas, forms and materials. We believe that the immeasurable is as valuable as the metrics, and that design should not only look good but feel good.

Why Work Here?

In 2022, Piercy&Company became an employee ownership trust, solidifying our approach as a design house and amplifying our collaborative endeavours. We are based out of a studio and workshop in Camden, where interdisciplinary teams of architects, designers and researchers work side by side. We have long been motivated by the potential of combining advanced digital design and fabrication technologies with traditional materials and forms, a thread of investigation with significant applications in sustainable, climate-responsive architecture. We are working with climate consultancy Inhabit to develop our pathway to becoming a net zero business by 2040, aligning with and exceeding the Science Based Targets initiative target of 2050.
