Stronger communities through inclusive design of spaces that respond to local need.

Public buildings are the beating heart of our neighbourhoods, providing vital social infrastructure and promoting community cohesion. They are places to have fun and make friends, to seek help and provide support, and to teach or learn new skills.

We love working with local people to help create buildings which respond to their needs—both now, and in the future—using an inclusive design process as much as the finished product to deliver social value and embed a sense of ownership and belonging.
