Inspiring Healthy Places

Story

We are a group of international Architects and Designers who work collaboratively across the practice, sharing the same ambition – to create healthy, sustainable and progressive environments for our clients and society.

Founded in 1952 by WW2 veterans Michael Floyd, Peter Slaski, William Challen and Anthony Todd, work came in all shapes and sizes from motorway service stations, hospitals, estate regeneration, to one off prestigious projects such as designing the Chinese Embassy building, opposite the RIBA headquarters on Portland Place.

With offices in London and Cornwall the practice has grown organically through repeat business and a reputation for quality sustainable environments.

We continue to evolve and invest in our colleagues’ unique strengths and professional development through continuous research, to enrich our collective knowledge for design.

We advocate for places that foster well-being, recovery, learning and collaboration through considerate design. We want to create better places in society that respond to our evolving need for diversity. Providing inclusive environments for both humans and nature.
