About the practice

Platform 5 was founded to enrich people’s everyday lives by creating human scale, beautifully designed places to live, work and learn. Established in 2006 by Patrick Michell, our practice has served as a creative platform in East London to collaborate with clients, communities and consultants. Our clients come to us because we take a creative problem-solving approach to their projects, delivering crafted mixed-use developments that unlock the value of their complex sites. We have been recognised by Wallpaper* magazine as one of the leading architectural practices of our generation and have won multiple design awards. This reflects our team’s dedication to every project and our commitment to delivering design excellence for our clients.
