Shaping places that make a positive impact
We are architects and building consultants who believe places have the power to shape a more positive future - for the people who use them, for local communities, and for our planet. By embracing innovation, and with expertise grounded in two centuries of practice, we deliver healthier, safer, and smarter buildings and spaces.
How we work
We act responsibly
We take responsibility for the impact of our work and the legacy we leave. Considering how our actions contribute to wider social, economic and environmental issues – and actively exploring opportunities to make a positive contribution.
We are inventive
We are problem solvers and love the challenge each project brings. By embracing innovation and pushing the boundaries of design, we are reimagining the way we shape new or existing spaces and enhancing the way people experience them.
We work collaboratively
We thrive on collaboration and believe that openly sharing knowledge helps generate positive change. With experts across multiple services, sectors and business support roles working together to deliver the highest quality projects and client service.
We champion inclusivity
We continually strive to become a more inclusive organisation. By creating open and supportive environments where everyone’s contribution is valid, we unlock creativity, inspire future generations and better understand the diverse communities we work in.

A brilliantly diverse team of experts, delivering award-winning projects
Working across nine UK offices, we deliver projects for clients in a variety of sectors – locally and internationally. With a multi-service approach that gives us a complete understanding of the full life cycle of the built environment.
We invest in research and development and provide space for debate and collaboration with communities and colleagues. Applying thinking that is imaginative and pragmatic in equal measure to find effective solutions for every challenge.
We approach every project with the same commitment to quality, excellence and integrity in all we do. Led by the principles of creating social value and promoting sustainability, we work to connect people, places and the environment.
