The most distinctive feature of our approach is its philosophy of and rich experience in collaboration between clients and a team of independent professional experts. Design that comes from cooperating on exploring possibilities and sharing ideas results in diverse and rich responses to place-making.

The Collective provides design experience, design advice, design innovation and design beauty. We bring the total of our collective experience to our clients’ projects, to help them realise their place-making aspirations.

With a climate crisis already impacting on our spaces, the Collective embraces every opportunity to develop socially and environmentally responsible master plans. Our designs are based on our shared philosophy of including support systems and requirements for a sustainable healthy society, a focus on using natural systems, and spaces that enhance our place within the natural world.

Bringing together independent professionals and our cumulative experience provides our clients with access to a level of expertise that is greater than all the individual parts. Our technical experience and skill mean that we understand the means and methods needed to achieve project and design goals.
