About the practice

We make places with and for people. Our well-loved and well-used buildings and places are created from listening and understanding client and stakeholder needs. Various forms of collaboration and co-production are at the heart of our practice. We enjoy the messiness and richness of these processes. They make each project unique and rich. Our key strength is our dual experience as both public realm designers and architects. Erect’s buildings and spaces have won high-profile awards and our public realm spaces have featured as good practice case studies by CABE and in the Supplementary Planning Guidance: Shaping Neighbourhoods. We challenge standards through innovation and research and explore this in evidence-based work. We are currently engaged in pilot projects such as Camden Active Spaces and Lambeth Early Action Partnership, which probe the potential role of design in improving public health and wellbeing.
