How We Work
At the heart of the Practice's organisation are the design teams, which are formed to take a new project from inception to completion. These are led by Sir Michael Hopkins and a Partner of the Practice. The developing schemes are subject to regular Design Reviews within the office to ensure that quality is maintained and to take advantage of cross-fertilisation between projects.
Design teams collaborate on each project with leading engineers, cost control consultants and other specialists. We believe the best buildings come from close co-operation between client and their advisors.
We have pioneered and developed a series of strategies in relation to membrane architecture and lightweight structures; sustainability and energy efficient design; the inventive use of traditional materials; the reuse of existing structures in conjunction with new build and the regeneration of derelict urban areas.
