Design for

Living

Spaces that perform for the people who live in them

We design, on average, over five thousand homes a year, covering every form of living: student accommodation, Build to Rent, social housing, assisted living, residential care and luxury custom residences.

That includes deep experience in high-rise design, with direct MEP experience on over twenty Building Safety Act Higher Risk Buildings and guidance, design and consultation through the Gateway 2 process. Constructionline Gold BSA verified accreditation and CHAS Elite status both demonstrate HRB competence and compliant process.

Key to our success is recognising that beyond the functional delivery of process and technical services, we’re delivering a home, a safe and comfortable environment for people and place.

One size does not fit all

We never apply the same MEP strategy to every type of residential space. Over time we’ve learnt what works best for different forms of living and development, and that know-how is where we begin. By understanding what success looks like for each space, we design the systems around that reality. Comfort, cost, compliance and living experience all need to be balanced differently.

We’ve solved this before

When you brief us on your project, we’re not starting from zero. We bring proven approaches, tested systems and distribution detailing that work to match your scale and budget.

We aim to deliver every scheme from inception to completion. Knowing how details get designed and installed reinforces our early stage MEP advice, mitigating risk in the later stages of design and construction.
