Retail and Mixed Use
We craft memorable, immersive experiences that revitalise urban centres and foster social cohesion. As mixed-use developments emerge as the de facto model, we balance community needs with innovative solutions. By listening to communities, we transform spaces into vibrant social and cultural hubs, driving a sustainable economy. Our focus is on creating wonder filled sustainable environments that unlock opportunities for society to flourish. Our team leads in retail, mixed-use, and placemaking design, working globally on projects that transform cities, communities, and lives. Our work spans urban solutions in open streets, partially covered schemes, arcades, and internal destinations responsive to climate and community needs. We collaborate with clients and stakeholders to maximise value, incorporating flexibility and future proofing into beautifully designed buildings and spaces.
