Make is an award-winning international architectural practice with a reputation for challenging convention and pursuing design excellence. Since we opened our doors in 2004, we’ve worked on over 1,000 projects worldwide covering a wide range of sectors in four studios across three continents and have completed 40 buildings, achieved 91 planning consents and realised seven masterplans. Our work is inspired by a singular purpose: to design the best buildings, places and spaces in the world.
We know that we will only create a better kind of architecture by being a better kind of practice. That’s why every employee at Make is an owner of the business. This democratic working environment ensures we attract, retain and develop the best creative talent and share a united sense of purpose and commitment. In collaboration with an extensive network of experts from many fields and disciplines, we are able to offer an exceptional body of knowledge and expertise that embraces every aspect of a building’s design, construction and performance.
We refuse to be restricted by a singular house style or a box-ticking methodology. Instead, each Make project is the result of a meticulous, in-depth design process that involves listening to our clients, understanding their needs and aspirations and producing bespoke, design-led solutions. We have developed a rigorous framework for enquiry through which we explore the potential of every brief. This involves asking seven key questions: What is best for the site? What is best for people? What is best for the environment? What is best for the client? What is best for the investment? What is our best ambition? What is our best legacy?
Through this framework we are able to work closely with our clients to create optimal architecture that sets new standards, stands the test of time and is recognised as the best in the world.
