Our experience of large and complex projects allows us to bring our broad technical know-how to your project, whatever its size, whilst our small office allows us to be flexible and responsive.
We're an RIBA Chartered Practice based in Sheffield since 2010. We bring together our wide-ranging expertise with our commitment to good design and holistic sustainable solutions. Between us, we have over forty years of combined experience in designing offices, creative workspaces, retail, industrial, transportation, healthcare, education, individual houses and housing.
We have championed the benefits of sustainable design for over 25 years since our pioneering involvement in the analysis of natural ventilation for complex buildings and work on the benefits of integrating buildings with landscaping. We have a particular interest in designing very low-energy use buildings, including retrofitting to make existing buildings more comfortable and energy efficient without sacrificing good design.
