A design and strategy led practice, we formed with the sole intent to raise standards in social housing design and public buildings in the UK after 40 years of neglect. Our team understands the tough challenges faced by local communities, setting out to adapt, repair and replace what doesn’t work with ambitious designs for homes and places that do, whilst evolving and refining housing and building types with each scheme. We employ an extremely talented team of architects who are passionate about housing design and making remarkable buildings and places.

 

We work with clients and specialist partners in a fully collaborative way to deliver these qualities, orchestrating expert consultants and collaborators and fully engaging with local residents and wider stakeholders from the earliest stages of the design process. This ensures grassroots involvement, support and a sensitive approach to decant and phasing. Our approachable design workshops, large-scale models, sketches and presentations help communicate our schemes to residents and stakeholders in an informed but grounded manner, including them in the creation of homes and places that residents of all tenures are proud to call home.
