CREATING MEMORABLE PLACES

Gbolade Design Studio are working with a range of public sector clients including Housing Associations and Local Planning Authorities, creating memorable, exciting, place-based led solutions to challenging, complex, heritage, and often politically-sensitive sites.

With over 15 years experience working with a range of stakeholders, we have developed deep expertise working on public sector housing and civic projects; designed to high-quality standards, including sustainability standards, providing equitable neighbourhoods and homes that reflect local need.

We have expertise in Passivhaus and Retrofit design (including trained Retrofit Coordinators (PAS 2035)), which we bring to decision-making to masterplans, housing projects and design codes, and have been appointed on government grant funded projects.

We have a refined and iterative process in addressing place, accessibility, scale, massing, and materiality to Make Everyday Extraordinary.
