Education
Delivering creative, inspiring and stimulating environments
We design sustainable and nurturing environments which facilitate continuous learning, by solving the functional challenges behind the need for versatile, adaptable and inspiring space.
Schools
Experience in both the state and private sector means we know what works for pupils, teachers, providers and funders. We design solutions to last by keeping materials robust and design solutions simple. Sequencing, phasing and buildability strategies which are focused on the safety and wellbeing of pupils and staff are at the core of our design principles. Robust testing of ideas and continuous stakeholder engagement enable designs which are fun, inspiring and future proof.
Our track record of working with independent schools has built an extensive portfolio of successful project delivery, covering a multitude of project types from feasibility studies and roof repairs to new build and strategic masterplanning. We are proud to have long standing, trusted relationships with many clients in this space.
Further & Higher Education
Design has the power to attract talent and support innovation. Our goal is to work with clients to unlock the potential of space and create sustainable places to learn, innovate, socialise, collaborate and even live. Every institution has a unique culture and values and getting to the heart of this through extensive upfront stakeholder engagement is what shapes a space that helps students, staff and the wider community to thrive.
From forest kindergartens to complex refurbishments and new build research and innovation facilities, our education experience spans the whole spectrum of education settings.
