We believe in a sound research base to underpin all our work – understanding building typology, construction and materials, and best practice. We have particular research expertise in sustainable planning and regeneration, rural development and housing design. We recently completed an international survey of innovative affordable housing models for the Toronto-based social projects studio E-Y-E.
