This section looks at the philosophy and the inspiration behind our work
By Sebastien Ricard
Battersea Power Station, Heritage Approach
We have built some of the world’s most recognisable landmarks.
Driven by a passion for architecture of the highest quality, we craft buildings of durability and delight. Our studios around the world design buildings that please clients and excite users. Our global portfolio includes Gardens by the Bay in Singapore and Crown Sydney, a luxury destination hotel for Australia. We have spectacularly restored London’s Battersea Power Station, turning an industrial ruin into a new neighbourhood and visitor attraction, and have built headquarters and campuses for Dyson, Wellcome Trust, Deutsche Bank, CIBC, Munich RE, Facebook and Apple.
With studios in London, Hong Kong and Sydney we have the agility and reach to realise projects throughout Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Australia and North America. We fuse architecture, engineering and culture, with an informed use of technology and materials. We embrace the spirit of the new tempered by an appreciation of context and environment. Our experience of taking projects to completion means our innovative solutions are delivered.
