Spaces To Be Together

Great design has the power to make a huge difference to communities. Spaces to be together are key for mental health and wellbeing, as well as creating a common purpose.

At Footprint Architects, we know that design influences how buildings are used and the impact it has on people in the local area. From a community centre for young people to a garden centre run by a charity, we’ve created architecture that gives the community a sense of pride and ownership.

No Challenge Too Big

Challenging brief? That’s no problem for us. Fundraising constraints? We’ll make it work. We’ll listen to you and define the brief, overcome hurdles together and make your project a reality, whatever it takes.

Throughout your project, we’ll also keep sustainability in mind, so it’s a space to be together for many years to come.
