The Practice

The focus of the practice today is in seven key market sectors: Defence, Education, Healthcare, Housing, Lifestyle, Technology and Workplace.

We serve clients from our offices in London and Leeds, as well as associated offices in Manchester, Belfast, Dublin, Warsaw and Mumbai. Our approach to our geographic locations is to provide clients with ‘one practice with several front doors’, thus ensuring their experience is of a similar quality no matter which office serves them.

Our practice ethos is ‘to design to build’: Buildings must look good, function well and be technologically sound, and to accomplish this, we must understand how to build in order to design.

A commitment to design, delivery and realism has ensured a constant market presence throughout our history. We aim to work closely with our clients, to understand their requirements and aspirations and to develop a project in genuine collaboration.

Our teams follow the latest thinking and best practice in designing built environments, evolving with social and cultural development and avoiding fashionable but fast-disappearing trends.

As a result of our dedication, our work has been recognised with over 25 awards since 1995, and, perhaps more importantly, we enjoy a high rate of client satisfaction and repeat business.
