About the Company

Our client is a globally recognised architecture, urbanism and design practice with a heritage spanning more than six decades. Operating across the UK, Europe, the Middle East and Asia, the studio is known for delivering high-quality, people-centred architecture across hospitality, residential, mixed-use, commercial and masterplanning sectors.
