Values
Our work demonstrates a commitment to place people at the forefront of the agenda and to create sustainable, resilient spaces that respond to their cultural, social and physical context.

Continuity — Designing for adaptability
Buildings must be able to evolve to be truly sustainable. We build for the long term, embracing the timescale of cultural and social change. Our designs allow for adaptation whilst maintaining quality and identity.

Transformation — Breathing new life into existing buildings
Adapting our existing built fabric is increasingly urgent in today's world. The dialogue between retained structures and new interventions is a creative opportunity that can stimulate the imagination, strengthen communities and ensure a sustainable use of resources.

Team
We encourage the different voices within our studio to contribute to our culture. Together we work to achieve outstanding architecture with lasting social value.

With more than 15 nationalities and speaking more than 20 languages, our studio thrives on a diverse and highly collaborative atmosphere that engages with clients and collaborators.
