About us
We create places and destinations where people belong. We design neighbourhoods, buildings and spaces with a focus on supporting the local, the social and the sustainable behaviour. We create good urban life, strong communities and good business for brands.
We are rooted in retail and have for many years been working with large, international brands. We have followed the development from high street to local neighbourhoods and we have seen how the demand for authentic experiences, unique brands and products has become key for creating communities and destinations. We have made it our mission to fight ghost towns and empty stores. We transform and activate existing buildings, so they fulfill their potential as a sustainable resource and as an urban narrative in our ever-evolving cities. We activate the urban fabric and bring people together via community, commerce, food, and culture, creating new life and unique experiences in the city.
We are specialised in the commercial and the shared. Our clients range widely – from international brands to property developers, investors and cities. Together we create, design and transform urban development – and we help brands become local and community oriented when we design neighbourhoods, buildings, workspaces, stores, showrooms and restaurants.
We promote more sustainable behaviour through experiences that shape how we consume, share, move, work, and live within our communities. Our goal is to foster healthy and green urban environments. Through neighborhood identities, retail strategies, and workspace designs, we encourage low-impact lifestyles and support resilient, balanced ways of living. Through pioneering research and practice, we explore new biogenic and regenerative material streams in the built environment. In everything we do, we always aim to have a positive impact on both the personal and built footprint.
We go all the way with the client – from commercial urban development and strategy to architecture and spatial design, even finding tenants and collaborators who can help realise the dream and create a new neighbourhood or place. Regardless of the project or the scale, the goal is always the same to us – to create unique places and destinations where people gather and like to be.
