Pop-up High Streets Flyer

If there’s one thing we’ve learned makes better buildings, it’s empathy. Architecture never happens in isolation—and simply by being interested and engaged, we’ve found it’s possible to open up the conversations that connect a scheme to its clients and community.

We believe that the more constraints there are, the better the architecture. If there aren’t any constraints, we create them. Challenging sites, existing buildings and complex briefs almost always present incredible opportunities for great design.

To limit our environmental impact, we start with what is already there. By manipulating the form and fabric of a building—whether new or existing—we can work with the existing conditions of topography, light and orientation, and harness the natural energy sources offered by air, ground and water.

If a site’s constraints guide the bigger design decisions, then it’s empathy that informs the smaller, social details. These details frame the human narratives that aren’t included in the brief, anticipating specific moments in the users’ lives.

Good architecture is as much about what happens on the building site as it is about what’s on the drawing board. By working alongside contractors as well as clients we can ring-fence the ideas and details that matter, championing quality and sustainability throughout construction.

As the Covid 19 outbreak has disrupted mobility for tens of millions, we are aware that more and more towns and cities around the world have been transforming their streets to increase space for walking and cycling alongside helping people get around while maintaining social distancing.

We have produced a mailer on Pop-up High Streets for Local Authorities across the country, explaining innovative, rapidly implementable solutions to practical problems facing retailers, particularly around meeting social distancing guidelines.

Our team offers design services including Space Planning, Highways Design, Placemaking, Town Planning, Project Management and Cost Consultancy to support the revitalization of High Streets during and post Covid 19.
