Use computational thinking to optimise the buildings where people learn and heal — designing smarter spaces through data, code, and parametric logic.

Who We Are
Architecture Social is a specialist recruitment consultancy connecting computational designers with architecture and engineering practices that deliver education, healthcare, and civic projects. Our clients include practices designing schools, universities, NHS trusts, research facilities, and community health centres — all of whom increasingly rely on computational design to meet complex briefing requirements. Registering speculatively places you on our priority shortlist for these specialist roles.

What Our Clients Typically Ask For
• Experience applying computational design techniques to education or healthcare building types
• Proficiency in Grasshopper, Dynamo, or Rhino.Inside for parametric modelling and design automation
• Ability to develop spatial analysis tools — adjacency optimisation, daylight studies, and circulation modelling
• Programming skills (Python, C#) used to create bespoke workflows for complex briefing and compliance requirements
• Familiarity with BIM integration — linking parametric outputs to Revit models and coordinated documentation
• Experience with environmental performance analysis (energy modelling, thermal comfort, ventilation studies)
• Understanding of healthcare planning standards (HBN, HTM) or education design guidelines (BB103, BB93) as applied through computational workflows

If your computational expertise helps architects and engineers design better buildings for people, we want to hear from you.

Why Register With Architecture Social
Healthcare and education projects demand precision, regulatory compliance, and creative problem-solving — exactly the challenges where computational design makes the biggest difference. By registering with us, you connect with practices that are at the forefront of applying technology to these vital building types. We take time to understand your technical capabilities, the project types that inspire you, and the studio culture where you perform at your best. When a matching opportunity arises, you will hear from us first.
