Leading international design practice with studios in Australia, Asia, the UK, and US.
About us
We are a leading international design practice with studios in Australia, China, South East Asia, the United Kingdom and the United States of America. Our vision is to design the world's best places - places people love. Our design values are shared globally across all our studios, by the talented people who work in them: architects, interior designers, landscape architects, urban designers, planners and specialist consultants. We work across a broad range of scales, from the interior design of a boutique retail store through to major public architecture and strategic urban planning for cities. And we work together in integrated design teams because they produce the best outcomes for our clients. Our focus is on people and how we create better, more meaningful experiences for them. We do that through creative, holistic thinking, a deep knowledge base and a rigorous design process. We judge the success of the buildings and places we design by the way people use and enjoy them - the clients who commission them, the people who inhabit them.

“We’re using design to uplift the way people experience their daily lives. In this instance, we’re using it to hopefully help, heal and educate — and we’re also using it to innovate.” — Mark Loughnan, Principal and Head of Design at Hassell Introducing our unique 3-D-printed earth design for a community building in Hope Village, Tanzania — a collaboration with charity One Heart Foundation, structural engineers Eckersley O'Callaghan and the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC). The community building, which forms the heart of a master plan in Kibaha, western Tanzania, aims to provide housing, education and skills training to vulnerable young girls. Open to residents, it will offer a space for communal meals, performances, care, and educational programs, fostering connections between Hope Village and surrounding neighbourhoods. With sustainability central to the design, the project features 3D-printed earth walls and an innovative roof structure made from locally sourced timber sections. All design collaborators will work directly with the community to increase employment and training opportunities. Work on the master plan — a collaboration between Hassell and ClarkeHopkinsClarke Architects — has begun, with construction of the community centre expected to start in early 2025. 🔗 Learn more about our sustainable community building in Hope Village, Tanzania: https://lnkd.in/gFZqpRW6 📷 Imagery by IMIGO.LT #CommunityBuilding #Tanzania #SustainableDesign #3DPrintedEarth #SocialValue

Located in the Hassell-designed One The Esplanade commercial tower in Perth, Western Australia, our design for MinterEllison's new workplace flips the traditional law firm layout, putting staff experiences and well-being first. The building's generous structural column grid allows for a flexible interior, ensuring that prime views are reserved for employees who spend their days there. Open workspaces and communal areas are placed along the edges, offering unobstructed views of the Swan River and Supreme Court Gardens. The central positioning of client meeting and arrival zones ensures easy access, maintains privacy, and immerses visitors into the company’s playful and dynamic work culture. It's a design that blurs the lines between spaces to foster seamless interaction and collaboration. 🔗 Learn more about MinterEllison’s new office space: https://lnkd.in/gG3xnSV2 📷 Photography by Dion Robeson #CommercialandWorkplace #InteriorDesign #WorkplaceDesign #PlacesPeopleLove

Just one year since its completion, the Sydney Airport International Forecourt has already generated significant environmental, social and community value. Delivering a 40 per cent reduction of paving areas adjacent to Terminal 1 and a 500 per cent increase of planting and turf, the ecologically rich environment is already supporting biodiversity renewal. Working with Wildflower Gardens for Good, Indigenous Landcare experts who planted and now provide ongoing care for the site, has helped Indigenous knowledge and talent to shine at each stage, while providing long-term employment for crew members. “What this project has created for Wildflower is an opportunity for our people to become Custodians once again, and you can see the benefit of that. Not only does it have a positive impact on our crew members, but the space itself is flourishing with Wildflower’s care,” says Roman Deguchi, co-CEO of Wildflower Gardens for Good. For the 40 million passengers and 336,000 employees supported by Sydney Airport, this green space offers the relaxed ambience of a local Sydney bush setting, providing a tranquil escape without ever leaving the premises of Australia’s busiest airport. 🔗 Explore our award-winning design for Sydney Airport International Forecourt here: https://lnkd.in/g2tXGfy3 📷 Photography by Simon Wood #LandscapeArchitecture #Biodiversityrenewal #RegenerativeDesign #CountryLedDesign #PlacesPeopleLove

Step inside our Lunar Habitat Master Plan, a ground-breaking modular moon base designed in collaboration with the European Space Agency - ESA to support the development of the world’s first lunar habitat. Developed as part of the ESA’s Discovery programme, the master plan will inform the creation of a scalable habitat system that can accommodate a settlement of up to 144 people. Designed to grow and adapt to the demands of future inhabitants, the modular system can be regenerated using materials sourced directly from the moon – such as lunar soil – and then 3D-printed on-site at the habitat, providing the means for sustainable construction growth. 🔗 Discover more: https://lnkd.in/dcQJSp5Z 🖼 Image 1 and 3 by IMIGO.LT #LunarMasterPlan #ESA #SpaceDesign #SpaceExploration #SpaceDesign #FutureMoonHabitat Cranfield University Format Engineers
