Work with us

Cities can be brilliant, infuriating, fragile, and full of potential. Ours is the job of turning all that chaos into places where people actually want to live. We design human-scale environments that work with nature instead of against it, treat mobility as a basic right, and help communities reclaim the places they already call home.

We operate at street level and strategy level, because real urban change needs both. From climate adaptation to community-led placemaking, we help cities shift from reactive thinking to intelligent, intentional design that improves daily life

    Green & Nature-Based Design

    Nature does heavy lifting when you let it. We create therapeutic gardens, community gardens, and resilient landscapes that cool cities, calm people, and quietly solve climate challenges. No greenwashing. Just design that functions.

    Water-Informed Urbanism

    Water always wins, so we design with it in mind. Flood-resilient streets, stormwater landscapes, sponge parks, and waterfront transformations that protect cities while making them more livable. Practical, beautiful, and built for the weather ahead.

    Mobility & Human-Scale Streets

    A city’s health is visible in how its people move. We design bike-friendly streets, walkable routes, and accessible spaces that replace frustration with freedom. Evidence-based, user-focused, and unapologetically human.

    Strategic Consultancy & Project Development

    Cities need more than ideas; they need direction. We provide research, design strategies, feasibility studies, and advisory work that turn ambition into action. Clear, grounded guidance for partners ready to rethink their urban future.

    Tactical Urbanism & Engagement

    Public space should feel alive, not theoretical. We design plazas, squares, and neighbourhood interventions that shift behaviour the moment they open. From quick-build prototypes to long-term transformations, we create spaces that communities instantly understand and use.

    Resilience & Post-Conflict Urban Projects

    In places under pressure, design isn’t optional. It’s urgent. Based on years of work in Ukraine, we deliver trauma-sensitive public spaces, community-led rebuilding, tactical interventions, and mobility solutions that restore normality in abnormal conditions.
