Public

Civic spaces such as museums, theatres, libraries, and courts are at the heart of our communities – and they have the potential to enrich people’s lives for generations to come. Our experienced Public team engages deeply with the purpose of each project, guided by a respect for the surrounding culture, community, and landscape.

Our collaborative approach and creative and strategic thinking result in design outcomes aligning form and function.

We design public places to feel welcoming and familiar, fostering a sense of belonging, promoting social interaction, and forming genuine connections to people and place. We know they need to be accessible, safe, and comfortable for visitors of all ages, demographics, and cultures.

Our portfolio includes complex and varied projects such as the globally significant Naala Badu (Sydney Modern) building, the multi-award-winning State Library Victoria Redevelopment, and the Thomas Dixon Centre – home of the Queensland Ballet.
