A Collaborative Path
to Innovation.
Excellence demands ingenuity and collaboration at every step. We enable deeply creative partnerships through open dialogue, rich insights, and co-exploration throughout the design journey.
[How We Work]
Informed Iteration
We engineer the design journey by customizing a cycle of feedback loops across each project timeline — whether months, years or decades. This approach allows us to integrate empirical data, robust analysis, and emergent project-specific needs to nimbly refine systems at every phase and scale.
Holistic Agile Analysis
Analytics underpin everything we do. Our expertise shines in using advanced analytical technologies and interpreting datasets to achieve the right goals at the right time. We believe this is essential to the way systems efficiencies are evaluated holistically, particularly in achieving meaningful progress towards sustainability.
Our cross-disciplinary approach allows us to blur the lines of industry specialisms to offer more comprehensive, integrated solutions. We have a particular specialty in leveraging analytics for large cultural projects and in applying an empirical lens to performance and materiality.
Transparent Collaboration
We believe the best outcomes derive from a process that unlocks new or unexpected opportunities. By blending a data-informed approach with transparent client communications, we are better able to cultivate the ideal conditions for serendipity to present itself as an opportunity instead of an obstacle.
As a boutique agency, our teams are primed to creatively respond to emergent possibilities — seeking efficiencies and elegant new solutions in both a responsive and anticipatory manner.
[Our Services]
- Building Services Engineering
We design the unseen systems that make buildings function beautifully. This includes advanced solutions for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), intricate plumbing and drainage, and robust electrical power and lighting systems. We also specialize in fire protection and integrated building management systems (BMS), ensuring every component works in harmony for optimal performance and comfort.
- Environmental Analytics
Our environmental analytics go beyond basic assessments. We use sophisticated tools to model and understand a building's interaction with its surroundings. This includes in-depth energy modeling to predict and optimize consumption, detailed daylight and glare analysis for occupant comfort, and thermal comfort simulations to create ideal indoor climates. We also analyze natural ventilation strategies and carbon emissions, providing data-driven insights to create truly sustainable and high-performing environments.
- Engineering Master Planning
We provide the strategic foresight needed for large-scale developments. Our engineering master planning integrates a holistic view of future infrastructure needs, from utility distribution and energy supply to waste management and transportation networks. We create flexible, long-term plans that anticipate growth, enhance resilience, and ensure cost-effective, sustainable development across entire campuses or urban areas.
- Post Occupancy Evaluation
The true test of a building's success comes after it's occupied. Our Post-Occupancy Evaluation (POE) services involve systematically assessing how a building performs in real-world conditions. We gather feedback from occupants, analyze actual energy usage, and evaluate indoor environmental quality (IEQ) metrics like air quality and thermal comfort. This data provides invaluable insights, helping identify areas for improvement and informing the design of future projects.
- Digital Twin
Step into the future of building management with our Digital Twin services. We create a dynamic, virtual replica of your physical asset, integrating real-time data from sensors and building systems. This powerful tool enables predictive maintenance, optimizes energy consumption, enhances operational efficiency, and provides a comprehensive platform for scenario planning and informed decision-making throughout the building's lifecycle.
