Architecture for the Arts
We make successful, sustainable spaces for culture and communities. Whether working in existing buildings galleries or institutions to upgrade and remodel found spaces or starting from scratch with a new building, we remain focused on designing environments and creating content based on experience, plurality, learning and theatricality. Our award-winning projects are a testament to our innovative and inclusive approach to design. We create buildings that are designed in response to place, culture and the environment.
Andy Theobald is our Arts & Culture lead.
Performance
Without compromising on technical excellence, our characterful spaces make any performance a real experience. From the foyer to the footlights, we create places that fully support the creative communities that use them.
Museums and Galleries
From ancient artefacts to contemporary installation, our work for museums and galleries puts the art front and foremost, creating a stable environment for the display of the work as well as an engaging environment for the visitor.
Spaces for creativity
Whether working to upgrade and remodel found spaces or starting from scratch, our experience making specialist spaces for making art and music spans nearly 40 years. We listen and respond to our clients to build adaptable, efficient spaces that inspire.
Learning Centres
Opportunities for learning outside of the classroom bring richness to education, allowing schools and community groups to access history, culture and science in stimulating environments. We bring our experience of school design to creating spaces where learning and engagement can flourish.
Beyond Architecture
We engage in a varied annual programme of design events and one off installations, as well as curating a lively exhibition and events space within our own London Studio. We seek to use art, culture and engagement to explore design and social issues with our communities
