We’re dedicated to creating environments where people live happier, healthier lives. To working collaboratively with our clients—engaging, listening, questioning—until, together, we exceed expectations. This is how we define design excellence. We look at projects holistically, because we know that the bottom line and great design are not mutually exclusive. Perhaps that’s why we’ve grown to be the world’s second-largest design firm. Our projects delight the people who use them and perform as well long-term as they do on opening day.

We know a good idea can come from anywhere. That’s why our design culture emphasizes teamwork. As colleagues, we regularly challenge each other—sharing the pencil, testing assumptions, constructing and deconstructing—to get to the best solution. Peer review is the cornerstone of our practice.
